The hypnotherapist and creator of Rapid Transformational Therapy explains why the books, courses and affirmations haven't worked, and what does. After surgery she swapped pain for discomfort and came off most of her medication, because pain sounds permanent and discomfort sounds temporary. Hard becomes unfamiliar, want becomes require, trying becomes doing, scared becomes excited.
Plus how she's helped women conceive by changing one sentence, why you should never say "my" in front of an illness, and the three-question test for whether a problem can hurt you at all. Includes the full "I am safe" exercise.

Davinia Taylor has been sober for nearly twenty years, and she still can't sit still. What if you were never chasing the drink, the goal or the weight, but the feeling of being enough?

This week Marisa Peer sits down with Davinia Taylor, Sunday Times bestselling author, founder of WillPowders and the UK's leading female biohacker, for a raw conversation about addiction, perfectionism and the belief underneath both.

Davinia has written four bestselling books, built a business and raised four boys, and has been sober for close to two decades. She is also, in her own words, still running. She is remarkably honest here about the fact that getting sober removed the alcohol but never touched what was driving it: the sense that she was not enough, and the need for more that came with it.

In this conversation, Davinia describes what withdrawal actually feels like, comparing it to the moment an oncologist told her mother she had six months to live. She explains why alcoholism is a disease of deceit that convinces you daily you don't have it, why she has searched for a trauma she has never found, and how an ADHD diagnosis in adulthood reframed her entire childhood.

Marisa and Davinia also explore why women scan past a hundred good reviews to find the one bad one, why perfection is the fastest route to loneliness, and why so many capable women find it almost impossible to sit still and do nothing.

Along with two live exercises you can do while you watch, and a quickfire round covering the diet rule millions of women still follow, why Davinia won't take HRT, and the lie she told herself about money for twenty years.

Watch to the end for the one shift Marisa says changes everything, and it takes no willpower at all.

She spent six years with her sexuality switched off, because someone once told her it was dangerous.

Most women can list the things they're not allowed to want. Almost none can remember agreeing to the list. This week Marisa Peer sits down with Rachel Pringle, tantra teacher, intimacy coach and author of Wild Open, for an honest conversation about desire, boundaries and safety. Rachel spent her first eight years in and out of hospital, learning her body could not be trusted, then two decades in modelling, learning it was only worth what it measured. What she had been taught to fear most in herself, her power and her wildness, turned out to be the exact thing she had been cutting away in order to belong.

She opens up about the six years she shut her sexuality down, the open marriage that nearly ended her relationship with Johann Urb and then rebuilt it, and why attraction, chemistry and love are three different things. She and Marisa also cover how to keep sex alive in a long partnership, why safety is the precondition for pleasure rather than the enemy of it, why saying no is a skill rather than a personality trait, and what sixty years of diet culture has cost two generations of women.

Marisa Peer sits down with Jeffrey Allen, energy healer, intuition teacher and Mindvalley trainer, for a conversation about ghosts, death, and what it actually takes to change your own life. Jeffrey explains why he spent years helping ghosts move on before deciding to stop, what he learned when he trained himself to leave his body on purpose, and why he no longer believes death is an ending. He also teaches a simple energy exercise you can try while you watch.

Along the way he and Marisa explore why some people visualise and affirm for years without anything changing, what he sees energetically when a belief finally shifts, and how a single repeated thought can settle into the body. Jeffrey shares how one question in meditation ended his career as a software engineer, and how he married his wife in Japan without either of them speaking the other's language.

Whether you're sceptical, curious, or already deep in this work, this conversation will change how you think about energy, illness, grief, love, and the words you use every day. This video is part of Marisa Peer's series of conversations with world-class experts in personal development, mindset and wellbeing.

Marisa Peer is a world-renowned therapist, global speaker, bestselling author and leading authority on mindset and transformational therapy. With over 40 years' experience working with CEOs, celebrities and Olympic athletes, she is the creator of Rapid Transformational Therapy® (RTT®), has trained almost 20,000 practitioners worldwide, and is founder of the global I Am Enough movement to help people build confidence and self-worth.

Is AI making us dumber? Jim Kwik, brain coach and author of Limitless, on digital dementia, cognitive surrender, memory, focus, and how to learn faster in the age of AI, with therapist Marisa Peer.

But first: what if the thing limiting your potential isn't your brain at all, but one sentence someone said about you decades ago?

Transform your confidence, relationships, health, wealth and purpose with Marisa Peer's all-new Upgrade Your Life programme: https://link.rtt.com/3RPeKWu

At five, a traumatic brain injury left Jim struggling to read. At nine, a teacher called him "the boy with the broken brain" in front of the class. That label became his limit, until a second accident at seventeen forced him to ask a different question. Marisa Peer traces how he went from that classroom to becoming the world's leading brain coach.

Together they explore why a bad memory is a belief rather than a fact, how the brain hunts for evidence to prove whatever you tell it, and why memory, focus, motivation and energy aren't things we have but things we do. They also confront what AI is quietly costing us: as we outsource our thinking, Jim warns, our mental muscles atrophy like an arm left in a cast.

If you've written yourself off as forgetful, unfocused or "just not smart," this episode will show you the brain you were given is not the brain you're stuck with.

What you'll learn:

- Why a childhood label becomes the limit you live inside as an adult.
- How your brain works as a proof-making machine, and how to change what it proves.
- Why there's no good or bad memory, only trained and untrained.
- Labels vs titles: why one limits you and the other expands you.
- What digital dementia is doing to your memory, and why AI accelerates it.
- Why the first five minutes after waking shape your entire day.
- How motivation actually works, and why waiting to feel it guarantees you never start.
- Why nothing is hard, only unfamiliar.

Book: Redesigning You

What happens when you've spent your whole life earning love and you finally realise you were enough all along? In this raw and powerful conversation, Marisa Peer sits down with Scott Thomas, reality TV star, entrepreneur, and founder of the True Self movement, to uncover how losing his father at six, becoming the "golden child," and hiding behind an alter ego led him into addiction, gambling, and years of running from himself.

Together they trace how a six-year-old boy made sense of an absent father by deciding "I'm not enough," how that belief drove him to chase recognition through nightlife, drugs, alcohol, and a Love Island spotlight, and what happened when he finally went sober and met "little Scott" again. Marisa breaks down why children always take ownership of pain, how the word "trying" guarantees failure, and why your brain is a proof-making robot that will prove whatever you tell it, good or bad.

Whether you're trapped in hustle culture, hiding behind a version of yourself that isn't real, or still trying to earn the love you were born deserving, this conversation will show you that your authentic self is your superpower and that safety, not success, is the real thing your brain is searching for.

This video is part of Marisa Peer's series of conversations with world-class experts in personal development, mindset, and wellbeing.

How do you stop chasing love, approval, and worthiness, and finally feel enough exactly as you are? 

In this deeply moving conversation, Marisa Peer sits down with Najwa Zebian, bestselling author, poet, and one of the most thoughtful voices on healing, boundaries, and self-worth, to explore where the belief "I'm not worthy of love" really comes from, and how to reprogram it for good.

Together they trace how childhood wounds shape the roles we play into adulthood (the sick one, the brilliant one, the carer, the rebel), why the people who hurt you can't be the ones to heal you, and how to become the loving parent your inner child never had. Marisa then guides Najwa, and you, through a live inner-child reparenting visualization, showing exactly how to make love familiar so your brain stops rejecting it.

Whether you struggle to receive love, over-give, or accept "crumbs" when you deserve more, this conversation will help you understand that you were born worthy of love, and that reclaiming that belief is the one change that lets real love find you.

This video is part of Marisa Peer's series of conversations with world-class experts in personal development, mindset, and wellbeing.

In this powerful conversation Marisa Peer sits down with "Fame Maker" Sheeraz Hasan, the strategist behind some of the world's biggest celebrities, including Kim Kardashian and Zendaya. He reveals what fame really does to the mind: why it overrides love, how it breaks relationships, and the loneliness nobody talks about. If you've ever dreamed of being famous, watch this first.

What you'll learn:

• Why fame is more addictive than any chemical drug  and how it rewires your brain.
• The hidden cost: why so many famous people say "I'd be rich, but I wouldn't be famous."
• What Sheeraz told his own daughters when they said they wanted fame.
• The "I'm not enough" wound: how fame exploits the exact insecurity it promises to fix.
• Why AI is about to change fame forever (and how to survive it).
• The one thing that separates people who are destroyed by fame from those who thrive.
