Jordan Apodaca's Podcast

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!

My life has changed a lot in the last year. Here's a brief explanation of a lot of it. Also, I apologize for the fact that my voice was a bit monotone in the beginning, and for the background noise. In the future, those won't be problems. Love you all!

Hey everyone! This was a super fun episode with Anthony Campo. We talked about personal development and business, and then we got into our own spiritual beliefs as well. Hope you enjoy!

Back at it like a bad habit -- I'm excited to resume this podcast after a month of inaction. LET'S GO!

In this episode we discuss different theories of the atonement, and we spend a lot of time critiquing the penal substitutionary view :) https://www.jordanapo.com/ https://bookme.name/jordanapodaca/
