Unlearning with Laura

This episode is a BTS look at my 1:1 programmes for mums ready for real change.

I created this episode for anyone who's curious about working with me. After a recent conversation with a team member, I realised that it may not be clear how it all works. Whether you're on the fence, exploring your options, or just want to understand the process more clearly, this should answer everything you’ve been wondering about my online practice.

I walk you through:
🌀 What brings most of my clients to this work
🌀 How sessions are structured (and what’s in the client portal)
🌀 A case study of a recent client from my 4 Week Awakening programme
🌀 The difference between my 4-week and 12-week programmes

If something in you has been quietly nudging you toward a more joyful and easeful life, I hope this helps you feel more confident and supported in taking that next step. My mission is to help as many mothers as possible to feel good again, because they deserve it, and so do their kids 🧡 

PS. I forgot to mention, if you invest in my 12 week programme you receive a special gift in the post. Something to support you on your journey 🎁

If alcohol has become your default tool to relax, cope, or connect, this is for you.

In this episode, I’m guiding you through a powerful hypnosis session designed to help you let go of the part of you that once reached for the booze - and reconnect with the clear, confident, radiant version of you beneath it all.

Originally created for a group of women on their alcohol-free journey, this session gently unravels beliefs like “I need it after that day with the kids” or “everyone does it, I don’t want to be the odd one out,”  or "I'm socially awkward without it" and replaces them with calm, clarity and deep self-trust.

Whether you’re just beginning or already well along the path, this is your time to come home to yourself - free of shame, and full of power.

Episode 14: Motherhood & Intrusive Thoughts

In this episode, I’m opening up about something that so many mums experience - but so few of us talk about openly: intrusive thoughts in early motherhood.

If you’ve ever jolted awake in the night thinking your baby had fallen out of the crib, or that something terrible has happened - you’re not alone. I share my personal story of the early days as a chronically sleep-deprived new mum, waking in panic about all sorts of irrational fears. And more importantly - we explore why these thoughts happen and what you can do to feel calmer and more in control.

I explore: What intrusive thoughts actually are (and why they feel so real)
 🧠 The difference between postnatal anxiety and postnatal OCD
 🧠 What’s going on in the brain and nervous system during early motherhood
 🧠 Who is more prone to experiencing these thoughts, and why
 🧠 What can genuinely help

This episode is here to help you feel seen, supported and a lot less alone. If you’ve ever carried silent shame around your thoughts - please know, you’re not broken. You’re human. And there’s help.

Episode 13: Smartphones & Our Kids

In this episode, I’m diving into a topic so many of us are navigating in the dark: smartphones and kids.

Whether your child already has a phone, is starting to ask for one, or you're simply wondering when the “right time” is - this conversation is here to help you feel more informed and a lot less alone.

We’ll explore:
📱 Why it’s not your fault if you feel unsure or guilty about phone use
📱 What the research now shows about kids, screens and mental health
📱 The real risks - from addiction and cyberbullying to grooming and overstimulation
📱 What alternatives exist (yes, there are kid-friendly, safer phones!)
📱 How we can support each other as parents, especially around setting norms
📱 And why this conversation isn’t black-and-white - especially when it comes to neurodivergent kids

This episode isn’t about shame or judgement - it’s about community, clarity, and making conscious decisions with the information we now have.

✨ Mentioned in this episode:

• Smartphone Free Childhood (UK charity I’m connected with)
• The “Safer Phones Bill” being proposed in Parliament
• Swiped - the school that banned smartphones
• Alternatives to smartphones for kids

Episode 12: Law of Attraction Hypnosis for a Positive Money Mindset

In this episode I’m guiding you through a powerful hypnosis session designed to help you release deep-rooted money blocks, overcome imposter syndrome, and step into the confident, abundant version of yourself.

Originally created for an entrepreneurial client who wanted to break free from limiting beliefs around money - this session allows you to take a quantum leap into the version of you who knows her worth and attracts more wealth with ease.

This is your time to let go of old stories, step into abundance, and start embodying the version of you who earns more, believes in herself, and takes bold action in her business.

Want your own tailored hypnosis session? This recording was originally created for a client, but you can book a free discovery call with me to create a powerful, personalised session that perfectly resonates with you.

Dr. Gabor Maté’s says that 80% of autoimmune diseases affect women - and people-pleasing is a major factor. Suppressed anger, self-sacrifice, and the pressure to always "hold it together" take a serious toll on your body and mind. Mums in particular are so conditioned to be doing it all and this needs to change.

In this episode, we’ll explore:
✨ The link between people-pleasing & chronic stress
✨ Why suppressed anger isn’t bad - it’s a signal
✨ How to release guilt, set boundaries & protect your energy

It’s time to break free from burnout and reclaim your emotional well-being. Listen now! 🎧

In this episode, we’re tackling a big topic - discipline. More specifically, how to set boundaries for our children without using shame.

So many of us were raised to believe that discipline meant punishment, fear, or guilt - but what if discipline could be something entirely different? What if it was about guidance, respect, and connection?

Today, we’ll explore:
✅ The true meaning of discipline (hint: it’s not about control!)
✅ Why boundaries make children feel safer, not restricted
✅ How to hold kids accountable without shaming them
✅ Practical strategies for setting firm, loving boundaries

And before we wrap up, I share about how shame silently holds us back in ways we don’t even realise.

If you’ve ever struggled with feeling guilty after setting limits, worried about being “too strict” or “too soft,” or just want to discipline in a way that builds connection rather than fear - this episode is for you.

Episode 8: Hypnosis for Anxiety

Welcome back to The Rewire & Thrive Podcast! I’m your host, Laura Styles - Clinical Hypnotherapist, Mindset Coach, and mum of boys.

Today’s episode is a chance to release anxiety, rewire at a subconscious level and step into ease and flow. Please note that this was created as a generic audio for my audience but if it resonates, I advise you listen for 30 days to notice a real difference. It's all about the repetition!

✨ Important: This is a hypnosis audio, designed to be listened to in a quiet, relaxed space where you won’t be disturbed. Please don’t listen while driving or doing anything that requires your full attention. Instead, find a cosy spot, pop in your headphones, and give yourself permission to fully receive this practice. Before sleep at bedtime would be ideal.

By the end of this session, you’ll feel lighter, calmer, and more at peace with yourself as a mother. You deserve this. 💛
