Welcome to Episode 5 of the Curiously You Podcast!

In this episode I am speaking with hypnotherapist, counsellor, and transformation coach Mary Paleologos.

We explore the concept of self-image in the context of Mary’s life, as she spent many years battling an eating disorder, and suddenly being heavy hit twice by a brain hemorrhage. How have these two issues helped her create a positive self-image, and what can we learn from her experiences?

We look into Mary’s concept of the ego, the reasons why we silence our inner knowing voice and what to do about it, and dive into our unique individuality and gifts that are calling to be shared with the world.

Mary gives us hypnotherapy techniques that we can use on ourselves to move to a place of peace, and start to live in line with our intentions.

This episode is perfect for you if:

• You struggle to create a positive self-image for yourself.
• You are unsure which is your own true voice of the many inner voices you hear.
