290. How I Accidentally Became a Hypnotherapist (And Why I'm Now Training Others)

You've heard the myths - swinging watches, losing control, clucking like a chicken on stage. In this episode, I talk about the real story of how a session I booked purely to lose weight accidentally became the start of my entire career. I break down what hypnosis actually is, walk through the thousands of years history behind it and explain why, after seven years in this work, I've decided it's time to start training other people to do it too. In this episode, I talk about: The accidental beginning - the weight-loss session, the Princess Rebecca hypnosis track, and the moment at the Christmas table that changed everything The biggest myths about hypnosis - swinging watches, stage shows, losing control, and why none of it is true So what actually is hypnosis - the real definition. Why your clients aren't the problem - Milton Erickson's rapport insight and what it means for anyone who feels stuck on repeat Why NLP and hypnosis have never been separate for me and what each one gives you that the other doesn't Why I'm training practitioners in both and why this feels like the natural next step, not a new direction Connect with Rebecca Haydon: Apply to work with me The Subconscious Membership Come say hi on Instagram | Facebook | YouTube Resources mentioned in this episode: The Subconscious Institute - Hypnotherapy Practitioner Certification waitlist Millionaire Hypnosis Bundle
