This is the podcast for anyone ready to elevate how they live, work, and grow.
We go beneath the surface of relationships, career, business, wealth, and wellness, using research, honest conversations, and practical guidance to support your journey.
In this episode, Kristina is joined by Teresa McDonald, Certified Consulting Hypnotist, to explore self-hypnosis — what it really is, how it works, and why it’s one of the most powerful tools for personal change.
Together, they demystify common myths, explain how self-hypnosis works with the subconscious mind, and show how it can support confidence, habits, stress, emotional healing, and long-term transformation — while keeping you fully in control at all times.
From anxiety, habits, pain management, and emotional healing, to self-hypnosis, mindset work, and even medical applications — this conversation offers a clear, grounded understanding of why hypnosis is powerful, evidence-based, and underutilized.
If you’ve ever been curious about hypnosis but unsure where to start, this episode will completely shift your perspective.
