This week’s episode is a little different.
Instead of hosting or coaching, I’m on the other side of the mic in a deep, honest conversation with my friend and colleague, Amber Annette, on her podcast The Business Psychic Podcast.
Amber and I have known each other for years, and this conversation feels far less like an interview and much more like two practitioners pulling back the curtain on the patterns we see over and over again in our own lives and in the lives of the people we support.
We talk about why fresh starts so often don’t stick, and why the same patterns can keep resurfacing even after years of personal growth, therapy, strategy, and “doing the work.”
A big theme throughout this episode is reframing self-sabotage. Not as something you’re doing wrong, but as something that once helped you stay safe. We explore how many of the behaviors people want to eliminate, procrastination, overthinking, avoidance, perfectionism, staying small, are actually protective responses rooted in early experiences.
I share my own journey into hypnotherapy, what shifted for me personally after years of traditional talk therapy, and why working at the subconscious level creates change that feels lighter, faster, and more sustainable.
Amber and I also talk about:
This conversation is especially for you if you’ve ever thought, “I’ve done so much inner work… why am I still struggling with this same pattern?”
Nothing is wrong with you. You’re just running old programming that hasn’t been updated yet, and that can change.

And if someone came to mind while listening, someone who keeps starting over, repeating the same patterns, or wondering why change hasn’t stuck yet, share this episode with them.
Sometimes the most powerful shift is realizing that you’re not doing something wrong. You’ve been protecting yourself, and when safety comes first, real change becomes possible.

What is the subconscious, really? What actually happens inside a hypnotherapy session? Can it bring up painful memories? And does it actually work for things like emotional eating, weight loss, or self-sabotage?
This week, we’re rewinding one of the most listened-to episodes from earlier this year.
If you joined us last week for Part 1 of this listener-submitted Q&A series, this episode picks up right where we left off.
In Part 2, my dear friend, author, and Writing Black Joy podcast host Safiya Robinson joins me again for an honest, grounded conversation about what hypnotherapy really looks like beyond the myths, fear, and confusion.
We talk through what happens during a session, how we gently explore root causes without retraumatizing, what people mean when they say they’re “resistant,” and how online hypnosis actually works. We also unpack why the subconscious holds onto patterns like emotional eating, fear of visibility, perfectionism, or harsh self-talk, because that’s how it learned to protect you.
If you’ve been curious but cautious… skeptical but intrigued… or quietly wondering if subconscious work could support you, this episode will offer clarity.

This week, we’re rewinding back to Episode #2: Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy Q&A - Your Questions Answered: Part 1, one of the most downloaded episodes of the entire year. It’s sitting just under 400 listens, which tells me people are far more curious about hypnotherapy than they often admit out loud.
And that’s exactly why I wanted to bring this one back.
There is still so much confusion and fear around hypnosis, mind control myths, stage tricks, “am I going to cluck like a chicken?” (yes, we talk about that).
And demystifying this work matters to me, because so many of the patterns people feel ashamed of, procrastination, money struggles, emotional eating, and perfectionism, are not personal failures.
They’re subconscious programs, and once you understand that, everything changes.
So if you’re new here, this replay is the perfect introduction to my work.
If you missed it the first time, here’s your chance to hear it without digging through the archive.
And if you’re thinking about working with me in 2026, this gives you a clear sense of how I approach subconscious change and why it works.

This week’s hypnocoaching session is with a woman who has been working hard to grow her business, but nothing is really moving the way she expected. She’s showing up, she’s doing the inner work, she’s trying all the things, and still feeling like something is blocking her, but she can’t quite figure out what it is.
As we talk, it becomes clear she’s caught in a very real, very confusing place: wanting the next level… and feeling scared of it at the same time. Scared of failing, yes… but also unsure of what success might demand from her, change in her life, or reveal about her. It’s a kind of tension that lives quietly under the surface, and most people never say it out loud.
Inside the hypnosis, the part of her that’s been holding everything back finally gets a voice, and by the end of the session, that part of her gets what it never had: safety, clarity, and permission to stop carrying a job it took on a long time ago. And because of that, she gets to walk away with a different sense of herself and her capacity to grow.

This week, I sat down with my friend Shannon Whaley to talk about something a lot of us carry without realizing it, the stories we were told when we were young, and how they quietly shape the way we love, work, and trust ourselves as adults.
Shannon grew up hearing a message that followed her well into her 30s: “You’re not smart.”
And even though she went on to get multiple degrees, certifications, and build a successful business, that old story kept showing up in her relationships, her choices, and especially in the moments when she ignored her intuition.
In this episode, we talk about:
Shannon also shares the practices that grounded her, journaling, visioning, inner child work, and how she slowly built a life that actually feels like hers, not the one she was programmed to believe she was limited to.
If you've ever carried an old belief about yourself, or felt like you were living out a story someone else wrote, this conversation will hit home.

In this solo episode, I’m diving into the real side of gratitude.
Not the fluffy “write three things in your journal” version, or the pressure-filled “just be grateful” advice.
But the subconscious, neurological, and deeply human layers of gratitude, especially for those who grew up in chaos, survival mode, or environments where softening never felt safe.
We explore why gratitude often feels fake, irritating, or out of reach, and why your nervous system might actually resist it. You will learn how real gratitude, the kind you feel in your body rather than think in your head, creates micro moments of safety that your subconscious uses to rewire old patterns.
Then we go deeper into future gratitude, the practice of feeling grateful for the life you are creating before it arrives, and why your brain responds to imagined emotions with the same intensity as real ones. This is where identity shifting happens.

In this week’s hypnocoaching session, you’ll meet Nicki, a kind, self-aware woman who has spent most of her life trying to be understood.
She doesn’t just explain things; she overexplains them. In texts. In conversations. In moments of conflict.
As we go deeper into the session, we discover where this pattern began: a childhood moment when love felt conditional and peace depended on keeping others calm. The part of her that learned to justify everything wasn’t wrong. It was protecting her from being rejected, blamed, or left alone.
But what once kept her safe is now keeping her small, and in this session, that part finally gets to rest.
If this episode hit home, subscribe, rate, and leave a review.
And if you know someone who can’t stop explaining themselves, even when they don’t owe anyone an explanation, share this episode with them.
Because sometimes overexplaining isn’t overthinking. It’s overprotecting. A child’s way of saying, “If I can make sense to them, maybe I’ll be safe.”

In this episode, Safiya and I unpack one of the most exhausting and misunderstood patterns so many of us carry: the deep, subconscious pull to keep everyone else comfortable, even when it costs us our own peace.
We explore how people-pleasing isn’t really about being nice, it’s about safety. When your nervous system learns that harmony equals survival, saying “yes” becomes a reflex, not a choice.
Together, we talk about the childhood experiences, family dynamics, and cultural conditioning that train us to equate approval with worth and rejection with danger. We also explore how this pattern becomes part of our identity, the helper, the fixer, the easygoing one, and what it actually looks like to heal without swinging to the other extreme of being detached or cold.
From the physical exhaustion that comes from managing everyone’s emotions, to the quiet resentment that builds when you abandon your own needs, this conversation will help you understand why people-pleasing runs so deep, and how to start finding safety in simply being yourself.

What if transformation wasn’t about pushing harder, but about becoming the person who no longer needs to?
In this week’s episode, I sit down with Greg Fearon, creator of The Million Dollar Body Method, to explore how identity, not discipline, shapes every result we create in health, business, and life.
Greg shares what it was like growing up in London as the child of Jamaican immigrants, and how stories about money, success, and worth shaped his path long before he became a personal trainer and nutrition coach. We talk about the subconscious stories women carry about rest, responsibility, and deservingness, and why so many of us mistake exhaustion for achievement.
Greg’s work is rooted in what he calls The Superhero Identity Method, helping women build a vision of who they want to become, then align their daily choices with that future self. Because lasting change doesn’t come from more willpower. It comes from rewriting the story of who you believe yourself to be.

Not with judgment, with curiosity.
Ask yourself: What version of me would make this next choice?

In this week’s hypnocoaching session, you’ll meet Yvette, a money mindset coach who helps women shift their beliefs around wealth, except when it comes to her own business.
Money flows to her easily in every other area of life, yet in business, it feels like a grind. No matter what she tries, something invisible seems to block the flow.
As we go deeper into the session, we discover where that block began: a childhood moment that taught her success and being “too much” could make her unlovable. The same part of her that’s been protecting her from disappointment has also been protecting her from ease.
This session isn’t about forcing abundance; it’s about making safety the foundation of success. Because once your nervous system feels safe receiving, ease becomes the new normal.

In this episode, Safiya and I dive into one of the most misunderstood patterns in high achievers: the subconscious drive to get it “just right” as a way to feel in control, worthy, and safe.
We explore how perfectionism isn’t really about doing things perfectly. It’s about protection. When you grow up learning that love or stability depended on being good, quiet, or high-performing, your subconscious mind learns to equate “getting it right” with survival.
Together, we unpack how perfectionism can look like strength, ambition, or discipline on the surface, while underneath it’s fueled by fear of rejection, failure, or disappointing others.
From family dynamics and cultural conditioning to the nervous system’s response to mistakes, this conversation shines light on how deeply perfectionism is wired into our stories and how to begin rewriting it so you can rest, release control, and live with more ease.

In this week’s hypnocoaching session, you’ll meet Jagoda, a coach who’s built her business on helping others heal, but finds herself stuck when it comes to showing up online. She writes posts, rewrites them five times, and then never hits publish.
On the surface, it looks like procrastination. But underneath is something much deeper: a part of her that’s terrified of being fully seen.
As we go under hypnosis, we uncover where that fear began. This session isn’t about pushing past fear. It’s about understanding its purpose.
Because sometimes the part that keeps you hidden isn’t trying to sabotage your success, it’s trying to keep you safe until you trust yourself enough to step forward again.
And that’s the moment everything shifts.

What if the questions you ask yourself matter more than the answers you chase?
In this week’s episode, I sit down with my co-host and friend, Safiya Robinson, to explore how curiosity and small steps can shift the deepest stories we carry.
Safiya shares what it was like growing up in Barbados, the beauty, the bonds, and the silent beliefs she didn’t even know she was carrying. From feeling like she didn’t fit in, to questioning whether people truly cared for her, to realizing later in life that many of those stories weren’t true at all.
Along the way, Safiya discovered the power of asking different questions and taking small, doable steps. Questions like: What if I was wrong about myself? What else could be possible? And steps like finishing a blog post, writing a book, or daring to send an email that opened a door.
This conversation is a reminder that change doesn’t come from knowing all the answers. It comes from staying curious, asking expansive questions, and taking one small step at a time.

What if the reason you keep pulling back isn’t because you’re inconsistent, but because a part of you learned that connection wasn’t safe?
In this week’s hypnocoaching session, you’ll hear from someone who’s been caught in the push-pull of showing up and then shutting down. She’d pour her heart into creating, sharing, giving… only to retreat when it all felt too exposing.
On the outside, it looked like a lack of follow-through. But underneath was a little girl who once got told, “Don’t get too big for your boots.” A child who learned that shining too brightly came with ridicule, and that the safest way to protect herself was to hold back.
This session isn’t about forcing consistency or hustling harder. It’s about seeing the truth: the parts of us that block connection aren’t trying to sabotage us. They’re trying to protect us.
And when we finally understand what they’ve been guarding us from, connection stops feeling dangerous and starts feeling possible.

This week, I’m bringing you something a little different. Instead of me hosting, I’m on the other side of the mic with wellness business coach and Healthy Hustle Podcast host, Rachel Feldman.
Rachel and I have known each other for nearly a decade, so this conversation feels less like an interview and more like pulling back the curtain on the real patterns that keep showing up for entrepreneurs in their lives and businesses.
We talk about self-sabotage, not just the obvious forms like procrastination or perfectionism, but the deeper wounds that make visibility feel unsafe, or charging for your services feel like betrayal.
I share parts of my own story, the beliefs I’ve had to rewire around being seen, and how nervous system safety always has to come before strategy if you want your business to be sustainable.
You’ll hear how childhood stories quietly shape the way we show up in business, why success can feel terrifying even when we want it, and how to start building the capacity to let yourself be fully seen.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re the one standing in your own way, this conversation will help you see there's nothing wrong with you; you’re just running old programming that can be rewritten.

What if the reason you can’t hold onto money wasn’t irresponsibility, but a part of you trying to keep you safe?
In this week’s session, I sit down with Felicia, who has carried a scarcity mindset for most of her life.
It showed up in the money she saved, only to spend it all at once.
It showed up in the way she never quite felt secure, even when the bills were paid.
And it showed up in the quiet belief that having money wasn’t safe.
On the outside, Felicia has always been the dependable one, the one who works hard, pays everything on time, and makes sure the essentials are covered.
But underneath was a constant loop: If I hold onto money, it could be taken. If I stay in scarcity, at least I’m safe.
In our session, Felicia meets the part of herself that created this story.
The part that thought it was protecting her from loss, betrayal, and judgment.
This conversation is a reminder that the patterns we struggle with are rarely here to punish us.
They started as protectors, and when we meet them with compassion, we finally create the space to let them go.

This week, I’m bringing you something a little different. Instead of me hosting, I’m on the other side of the mic, as I sit down with Sovereign Magazine's Editor-In-Chief, Nicole George.
We talk about what it really means to practice radical honesty, not the watered-down version where you tell a half-truth to keep the peace, but the kind that asks you to peel back the layers of fear, guilt, and shame so you can finally see yourself clearly.
So many of us were conditioned to keep others comfortable, to please, to stay safe. That’s why being radically honest can feel terrifying. But it’s also the doorway to freedom. In this episode, I share how honesty shows up with my clients, how it connects to subconscious safety, and why it matters more than willpower when it comes to breaking patterns.
You’ll also get to experience a live meditation where I guide you into connecting with the part of yourself that hasn’t felt safe to be fully true. Listeners of the Sovereign community said it was powerful, and I think you’ll feel that too.
If you’ve ever wondered who you are when the noise dies down and no one is telling you who to be… this conversation is for you.

What if your fear of failure wasn’t weakness, but a part of you trying to keep you safe?
In this week’s session, I sit down with Lou, who has carried fear of failure for most of her life.
It showed up in the jobs she didn’t apply for, the house she didn’t buy, even the day her first website went live, when she completely shut down because the thought of being seen felt unbearable.
On the outside, Lou has always been the responsible one, the strong one, the one who makes things happen.
But underneath was a constant loop: If they see me, they’ll judge me. And if they judge me, I’ll fail.
In our session, Lou meets the part of herself that created this fear.
The part that thought it was protecting her from pain, rejection, and shame.
What she discovered is that this fear wasn’t here to punish her. It was here to love her, to protect her, even though it kept her small.
This conversation is a reminder that the fears that hold us back often started as protectors. And when you meet them with compassion, you create the space to let them go.

What if your visibility struggles weren’t about confidence, but about the subconscious belief that being seen isn’t safe?
In this episode, Sophia and I dive into one of the most common and often hidden blocks I see in high-achievers: the subconscious fear of being seen.
We explore how this fear is rarely about stage fright or social media nerves. At its root, it’s about safety. Your subconscious mind has learned to equate visibility with risk, risk of judgment, rejection, or shame, and so it quietly protects you by keeping you small, quiet, or endlessly “perfecting” instead of showing up.
This conversation uncovers how visibility fears show up in business, relationships, and everyday life, why your nervous system resists being seen even when your conscious mind wants it, and how to begin shifting that pattern so visibility feels safe, not threatening.

And if you know someone who keeps shrinking back when it’s time to show up, send them this episode.
It might help them realize they’re not lacking confidence, they’re just carrying an old story about safety. And that story can be rewritten.

What if your belief that you have to suffer and struggle to succeed wasn’t about discipline or ambition, but about protection?
In this powerful hypnocoaching session, I work with a caller who came in feeling frustrated, guilty, and worn down from years of trying to grow her business without the financial success she expected.
On the surface, she’s deeply committed, passionate about her work, and has spent decades trusting the universe. But underneath it all, there’s a quiet, persistent belief: I have to suffer more before I can succeed.
As we go deeper, we uncover where this pattern began, a moment from early childhood when her deep sensitivity felt like “too much” for others to see. From that point on, a part of her worked to protect her by toughening her up, hiding her vulnerability, and keeping her joy and spirituality out of sight.
Together, we meet that part with understanding. Because when you see how a part of you believes struggle is safety, you can start to let it go and choose a different path.
This session is a reminder that the very part of you keeping success out of reach may have once been trying to keep you safe. And when you meet it with compassion, you create space for ease.
