Ep. 169. In this episode of Perspective with Viv, I sit down with Andrew Wilson, a trauma-informed coach and author, to explore his incredible journey from personal tragedy to profound healing. Andrew opens up about how his mother’s illness became a turning point in his life, pushing him to confront trauma, fear, and the depths of the subconscious mind.
We talk about the power of fear, not as something to avoid, but as a teacher that can guide us toward growth and empowerment. Andrew walks me through the Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique (QHHT) and shares practical ways to connect with our subconscious, uncover hidden insights, and embrace emotional vulnerability, even for high achievers who are used to “holding it together.”
Throughout our conversation, we dive into the importance of emotional expression for men, the journey of self-discovery, forgiveness, and rising from life’s lowest points. Andrew shares lessons from his book The Enemy Within and his own experiences, encouraging listeners to confront their shadows, embrace vulnerability, and learn from the past.
