Why Gifted Healers Stay Small (And How to Stop) | Lawrence Ellyard

My guest this week had a single experience in his late teens that changed the entire direction of his life. He didn't plan for it. He didn't even know what it was called until it was already happening to him. Thirty years and 35 countries later, he's one of the most trusted names in complementary therapy.Lawrence Ellyard, founder of the International Institute for Complementary Therapists, joins me to talk about what actually separates practitioners who quietly practice from the ones who become trusted leaders in this industry. It's not confidence. He'll tell you exactly what comes first, and why most people have it backwards.We get into a strange little trick he calls the swallow test, a way of using your own body to know if something's true for you before your mind talks you out of it. He also opens up about the lessons he took home from time spent with Sir Richard Branson, and the one quality every high impact practitioner he's ever met has in common.If you've ever felt the pull to do bigger work in the world but keep waiting to feel ready, this one's for you. Press play, then don't be surprised if you start it again from the top.Connect with Lawrence at https://www.lawrenceellyard.com/ or https://www.instagram.com/lawrence_ellyard/ Support the showHosted by Lisa Brandis — bestselling author, founder of Intuitive Reiki International®, Reiki Master Teacher, intuitive channelling expert, and spiritual medium.Connecting to Spirit is for spiritually aware women ready to strengthen their intuition, trust their gifts, and step into grounded spiritual leadership.
