Whether I’m coaching a recent college graduate looking to get his life on track or a business woman in between jobs, I tell everyone the same thing: It’s all about connections, or as the saying goes, “It’s not what you know; it’s who you know.”
At least once a day, someone calls me office with questions about hypnosis. The most common thing I hear is some variation of “Can I be hypnotized?” or “I’m not hypnotizable, I just know it”.
The truth is this…If you’ve ever daydreamed, or become completely absorbed in an activity, then you are completely hypnotizable.
Take a look at this article we found by Stephanie M. Lee of the San Francisco Chronicle about a new study that asked why some people are more prone to hypnosis than others…
In order to fully understand what I do, it’s important to give a background of what hypnosis has been in history, and where it is now.

One of the key components of life coaching is helping my clients find other people in their lives to propel them to reach their goals.
Supportive family members and friends can provide you with the accountability needed to make the right decisions and attain your goals. So in addition to the work that you and I would do, we would also find people in your life who can be called upon to understand where you need to go and to aid you in getting there. Most often this is a spouse, a partner, a parent, or a sibling. It could be a close friend, or even a peer or co-worker. Whoever it is, he/she should be someone you can trust with the details and desires you have.
