My tours during the high school prom and graduation season always leave me with unforgettable tales—like that time in Michigan when the unexpected happened on stage. If you've ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes of a touring hypnotist's life, this episode peels back the curtain, revealing the highs, lows, and hilarity that come with the job. Plus, I'll give you a sneak peek into the practical side of booking my shows, and share a few anecdotes from my adventures in Canada that are sure to tickle your funny bone.On a more somber note, we tackle the weighty subject of loss, specifically the heartache of losing a furry companion. Through personal reflection, I discuss how radical acceptance can be a lifeline in the stormy seas of grief. You'll learn about the stages we pass through on the road to acceptance and the crucial role of self-talk during these trying times. In a shift towards self-discovery, we examine how an eye-opening classroom exercise can reveal the positive attributes that others see in us—qualities we might undervalue in ourselves. For all the teenagers out there, and anyone wrestling with body image or self-esteem, this episode offers a treasure trove of insights on nurturing a kinder, more supportive inner dialogue.FIND ME:My Website: https://motorcityhypnotist.com/podcastMy social media links: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/motorcityhypnotist/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCjjLNcNvSYzfeX0uHqe3gATwitter: https://twitter.com/motorcityhypnoInstagram: motorcityhypnoFREE HYPNOSIS GUIDEhttps://detroithypnotist.convertri.com/podcast-free-hypnosis-guidePlease also subscribe to the show and leave a review.(Stay with me as later in the podcast, I’ll be giving away a free gift to all listeners!)Change your thinking, change your life!Laugh hard, run fast, be kind.
