How to Use Conversational Hypnosis On Your Sales Calls

Passion may be what draws you to conversational hypnosis, but passion alone is not enough to build a lasting practice. In this episode, we explore how coaches, hypnotists, and practitioners can stay connected to the heart of their work while developing the structure, discipline, and business systems needed to reach more people. You’ll learn why separating your role as a compassionate practitioner...

What do you do when a client talks endlessly, jumps between topics, or keeps repeating the same story during a conversational hypnosis session? In this episode, we explore five practical strategies for working with rambling clients without damaging rapport or losing the deeper therapeutic thread. You’ll learn how to distinguish useful emotional processing from unproductive repetition, redirect the...

What if nervousness, fear, tension, and other strong emotions are not obstacles to trance, but natural trance inductions already happening in the moment? In this episode, you’ll learn the Emotional Trance Method, a conversational approach to recognizing and utilizing a client’s emotional responses during an advanced conversational hypnosis session. Rather than trying to eliminate, interpret, or tr...

Why can even great coaching questions leave clients stuck? In this episode, we compare traditional coaching questions with the ACH Hypnotic Interview. You’ll learn why solution-focused questions can sometimes miss the unconscious logic holding a problem in place, and how curiosity-based questioning can uncover what is really happening beneath the surface

You do not need an expensive all-in-one platform or a complicated collection of software to run a successful hypnosis business. In this episode, I walk you through the exact tools I use to manage my business, book clients, collect payments, send contracts, host sessions, create content, organize ideas, and publish across multiple platforms. I also explain which tools are essential, which ones are...

I’ve trained in NLP, life coaching, direct hypnosis, and several forms of conversational hypnosis. Yet in my client sessions, I now rely exclusively on Advanced Conversational Hypnosis. In this video, I explain the three opportunity costs that led me to set aside more than 90% of what I had learned. You’ll discover why using fewer techniques can lead to greater mastery, deeper presence, and more c...

What is the difference between following hypnosis techniques and working from deeper principles? In this episode, I explain why rigid techniques can sometimes create resistance, and why a principle-based approach allows you to respond to each client in real time. You’ll learn how to: • Make the client, rather than the technique, the central focus of the session • Notice unconscious moments such as...

In this episode, we look at why traditional post-hypnotic suggestions often miss the real issue, and how advanced conversational hypnosis can help the unconscious mind keep processing deeper change after the session ends.

One of the biggest fears coaches, hypnotists, and change workers have is, “What if I take on clients and fail them?” This episode offers a simple, practical reframe that can make it easier to start charging, serve clients, and build real confidence through experience.

Fractionation in Hypnosis: Not Just for Deepening Trance

New hypnotists often assume they should start with free sessions to build confidence and experience. In this episode, we break down why that can actually create harder client dynamics, weaker commitment, and less useful practice, and why charging from your first client may help both you and your clients get better results.

What can hypnosis trainers learn from the Tao Te Ching? In this episode, I explore how Taoist ideas like non-forcing, emptiness, silence, spontaneity, and letting go can shape a more natural approach to advanced conversational hypnosis. Rather than relying on scripts, pressure, or rigid technique, this is about learning to get out of the way so change can emerge from the client’s own unconscious p...

Hypnotists and coaches often waste time chasing answers that sound deep but don’t actually lead anywhere useful. In this episode, I share one simple question you can ask to tell whether a client’s response is a real unconscious opening, or just old territory they’ve already explored.

Interview the problem, not the client

In this episode, we explore one of the most important skills in Advanced Conversational Hypnosis: learning to identify unconscious moments in real time. Rather than relying on a fixed checklist of signs, you’ll discover why unconscious responses are always person-dependent, how to establish a client’s baseline, and why radical presence is essential for noticing the subtle deviations that can lead...

In this episode, I break down a real conversational hypnosis session where a client was stuck in a painful mental loop and unable to access new perspectives. I share a technique I call “throwing logic at the knot,” where offering many possible interpretations at once can help loosen rigid thinking and allow the unconscious mind to find its own answer.

If you’re a hypnotist, coach, or hypnotherapist, you probably want more of the right people to book calls, show up motivated, and actually say yes to working with you. Most people assume the answer is to get better at selling. Better scripts. Better objections handling. Better slides. Better follow-up. Better strategy calls. And yes, all of those things can help. But in my experience, the biggest...

In this episode I explain why understanding the root cause of a problem is unimportant, and why the "unconscious payoff" is what you're actually seeking to understand.---In this podcast, I’ll share insights, techniques, and strategies to deepen your understanding of hypnosis and improve your practice. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced hypnotherapist, these methods will revo...

In this short episode, I explain my philosophy for why coaches, hypnotherapists, and NLP practitioners need FEWER techniques and approaches to changeowork, not more!
