Tell us a little something about your business...
I help clients lose weight, stop smoking and manage stress using tools such as hypnosis and NLP (neurolinguistic programming). Using these techniques, we can help individuals see their un-useful patterns and create new ones. We help clients go deep into their own minds and take control of their own thoughts and feelings.
Simply by giving individuals the tools to be able to achieve their goals is the most rewarding part of my business. We watch clients take action to make their dreams come true, jump into discovery, see the possibilities and make permanent change.
When was your lightbulb moment?
11 years ago I was a insecure, stressed out and overweight college student. I’d tried everything from weight loss pills, working out 6 days a week, eating less and reading every book about health and wellness. It wasn’t until I found myself at Burlington Hypnosis, did I see real change in all areas of my life. Not just with my weight but how I felt.
Hypnosis always made an impression on me. Years later after experiencing a big life change, I decided to get back into hypnosis. Now years later I am not only working at Burlington Hypnosis but I have also started my own clinic. Now I can really help others the way hypnosis helped me.
What are your three words of advice?
As a new entrepreneur I would say TAKE ACTION. Take the first step whether its create a website, start a blog, buy the equipment, taking a client, ANYTHING.
NETWORK, get out and meet people. Talk to other entrepreneurs who have been in your shoes, tell people about your new venture. You never know who you will meet; your next client, a mentor or just a new friend.
Most importantly, TRUST THE PROCESS. Everything is a new learning experience. The challenges will only build resilience, and success will be just as sweet.
