In this episode, I dive into the real power of the saying “a new you awaits within” with my guest Dr. Flavio Souza Campos. You’ll hear why just waiting for time to heal won’t solve your problems—and how true change begins when we look within ourselves. Flavio is an award-winning hypnotherapist and spiritual guide from Miami, and he shares his wisdom about our emotional healing, personal growth, and the importance of tackling the root causes of our struggles. We talk about why it’s easy to ignore our problems, how “time heals” can be a dangerous myth, and what it actually takes to meet the best version of ourselves. If you’ve ever wondered how to turn desire and setbacks into growth, or felt stuck waiting for a “new you” that never arrives, this conversation will resonate with you. Tune in to discover a simple shift that could change the way you see personal transformation forever.
