Some people just don’t get it…
They always look outside themselves for someone or something to blame for their problems.
Some of these people keep looking outside themselves for “magic pill” solutions that seem to be easy and require no actual work or effort on their part. Eventually some of these people find hypnosis and start inflating a balloon of “magical thinking” about the “miracles of hypnosis” that frankly someone needs to pop.
Today I am pulling on the hat of AMERICA’S HONEST HYPNOTIST
These “magic pill people” think that the way hypnosis works is that “if the hypnotist guy is any good” he can just wave his magic hypnosis wand, “put them UNDER” and they will wake up “cured” of all their problems. And of course this is with the investment of only a single one hour hypnosis session that, btw should only cost about $75 bucks…
If they don’t get the magical cure, they have a nice easy target to blame for their lack of results.
BLAME THE HYPNOTIST! He didn’t know what he was doing…
HOWEVER, in the case of someone like myself, who has studied with the best practitioners and trainers IN THE WORLD and practiced for over 20 years working with HUNDREDS of clients, HOW IS IT POSSIBLE THAT WHAT WORKS WITH SO MANY PEOPLE, SOMEHOW DOESN’T WORK FOR EVERYONE?
But the Cold Hard Truth is this: Hypnosis works. IT WORKS 100% of the time.
But the truth that these people do not want to hear is that the worlds’ most powerful hypnotist is sitting in the same room with you when you work with me.
But it isn’t me.
The world’s most powerful hypnotist is YOU.
You can either hypnotize your self to succeed at making the changes in your life you say you want to make. Or you can hypnotize yourself to “fail”. But either way the hypnotist is actually YOU…
And by the way, you can “Say” you want to change all you want, but if your unconscious mind has a good reason NOT to change, well, then THAT is the hypnotic command that gets followed.
Does that make sense?
If hypnosis really worked the way most people think, consider this, why would any hypnotist waste his or her time on helping someone stop smoking or lose weight?
If we hypnotists could really MAKE PEOPLE CHANGE without their participation, why not just go into the prisons and hypnotize those people to be honest? Then go to Washington and hypnotize THOSE people to be honest? Then we could fly to the Middle East and hypnotize THOSE people to stop killing each other.
All before lunch time.
The truth is you are a somewhat complicated being with a conscious mind and an unconscious mind.
The process of hypnosis is actually about aligning what you want CONSCIOUSLY with what you want UNCONSCIOUSLY. The problem is that no one gives you a manual for how to run your own mind, much less that you have two minds and they don’t actually process information the same way. The bottom line is that hypnosis is NOT some guy waving a pocket watch in front of you and MAKING you do something you don’t want to do. That is total hollywood bullshit.
Hypnosis is the process of getting your conscious mind and your unconscious mind to work together to get you more of what you want in your life, faster, easier, better. That’s it. The big secret is that the hypnotist doesn’t “make” you do it.
The hypnotist teaches you how to communicate to yourself in a way that actually gets you what you really want…
I am personally done with being blamed for the magic pill people’s lack of personal power or self discipline. I am done with being blamed by clients who say they want to lose weight but who do literally NOTHING different in their lives to handle the stress, the shitty job, the relationship that sucks or the fact that they come home every night and sit on the damn couch stuffing their faces full of crap.
How is any of that my fault? The cold hard truth is you actually have to put a little effort in to understanding HOW you do what you’ve been doing. Sometimes that takes longer than you want.
Welcome to the world of being a grownup.
From this point forward I will ONLY work with clients who apply to my program who agree to the following:
1. This is a Coaching and Mentoring process that comes with no guarantees. Your results may vary. If it doesn’t work as fast as you want or get you as far as you want, please remember this is a coaching process not a magical cure thing and no refund is due.
2. You are responsible for implementing my suggestions. For example if you are totally stressed out by your job and I suggest that you begin to take consistent action to either
- Make your job more enjoyable to you by speaking up to your boss or beginning to say “no” to unreasonable work loads or time demands or
- Seek other employment elsewhere ASAP or
- Quit
and you do none of the above, then I will no longer work with you and no refund is due.
3. You are responsible for following up. If you have questions or concerns or need additional coaching sessions it is up to you to take action to let me know that. I’m a damn good Mind Mastery Mentor but a really lousy Mind Reader.
4. You are responsible for completing assignments that YOU and I design together and that you agree to do. If you do a half assed job, that is your choice and no refund is due.
5. You are responsible for payment in full up front. No exceptions. No insurance. No payment plans. No whining about how expensive I am. If you can’t afford it then don’t do it. My time is my most precious resource and I am one of the Best in the World at what I do. Therefore I charge accordingly.
I you can’t handle my honesty or attitude, that’s fine too, please go elsewhere. I won’t be offended. I “get” that I’m not the perfect coach for everyone…. Just the kind of people who appreciate and understand that we are all our own worst enemies until we learn how to change our relationship with our unconscious mind. And then the sky is truly the limit!
If you really want some coaching but can’t afford my 1 on 1 private coaching fees, I have a ton of courses designed to guide you through pretty much all of the processes we would do one on one.

And for the record, my days of one on one coaching are frankly numbered anyway. And I may have already stopped doing private sessions by the time you read this.
If this all seems reasonable for you then go ahead and… apply
Depending on what your challenge is, the price and coaching period varies. It may be a 30, 60 or 90 day coaching period. It may be a one day breakthrough session. It could be a breakthrough session with weekly email coaching or checking in. We may have to get on the phone and have a preliminary discussion about what you want to accomplish.
Also If I have a course available for the same problem I would highly suggest you get it and complete every assignment. And only THEN consider working with me privately for “fine tuning” and tweaking. Once you know the basic concepts and tools that saves a huge amount of time and instead of teaching you the tools one on one, we can DIRECT the tools and “level you up” to a higher peak performance zone faster.
I am currently working on a new process for considering applications. In the meantime please use the contact form below to briefly describe your challenge and I will reply as soon as I can. Thanks!
Where do you want to go?
What do you want to have or accomplish?
What do you want to do?
Who do you want to really be?
I can’t answer those questions for you, but I can help you discover your own authentic answers faster, easier and better…
Consider engaging me to be the “trail guide” to your “path with heart”.
You as always have to do your own walking, but I can show you the fastest routes, the easier shortcuts, and because I’ve most likely failed 50x more than you on MY journey, sometimes I even know when the long way around is actually the best way to getting what you want faster, easier and better…
When you’re ready to take massive action, or need help to get out of your own way so you can, there are a couple of different paths you can take to go deeper, farther, higher, faster, better with me.
- Sign up for the “Daily Mind Mastery Journal” I share an empowering, challenging, inspiring message along with a Transformation Tune that supports the message. This is free. And you can always unsubscribe.
- Join the next 90 Day Transformation Challenge. We have a monthly virtual mastermind where we check in and where I can coach you individually and as a group. The individual coaching is not private. The benefit of that is that everyone can apply what I say to the other people. It’s $99 per month or $999 for the year paid in advance.
- Apply for private coaching. The get acquainted session is free with a $500 deposit to secure the appointment. I only keep your $500 if you don’t show up. If you do show up and I agree to work with you one on one, we can apply the $500 towards whatever coaching program you decide to commit to. If you show up and we turn out to not be a good match for a coaching relationship, I will refund your deposit.
a. Breakthrough Session plus Bi-Weekly check in for 90 days. We meet in person for a full day and go through a pleasurably intense step by step process of clearing the crap that’s been holding you back. There is also usually a pre-requirement that you complete a specific course of mine, or read particular books before we meet in person. You are also invited to participate in the full 90 group mastermind at no extra charge. $5,000
b. Coaching “As Needed” $500 per hour. Payment in advance to secure each appointment. This works best AFTER you’ve done a full Breakthrough Session. However, sometimes I can actually help to totally transform your experience of a challenge in a single hour. I’m always happy to do my best. However, there is no guarantee of that. It mostly depends upon you. For the most bang for your buck, I would suggest you purchase whatever course I have that would support you the most, and then schedule your appointment AFTER you’ve gone through whatever program is appropriate. That way you will have most of the tools and I can help you to use them more effectively in our brief time together.
