Let me ask you an important question. Do you feel that you are an observer or a reactor in your life? When we are reactors, it’s often due to unhealed trauma. During March, we’re exploring different methods and modalities to heal and create the mindset and life revolution each of us desires and ultimately deserves.

In this week’s episode, we chat with Kate Semeniuk, an expert in Hypnotherapy—which has the power to help us move through inner turmoil and resentment, grow in our confidence and self-esteem, release fear and phobias, and so much more. Kate’s journey to her purpose began in the Ukraine during the reign of the Soviet Union. The fascinating journey she took to find her most authentic self will open your eyes to how each of us can uncover the same for ourselves. Then Kate teaches us how to become an observer in our lives—a skill that shifts us from “stuck” to living our best and most abundant experiences every day. 

Kate’s deep understanding of the subconscious mind will not only shift your mindset but will also open your mind to releasing what no longer serves you.

During our conversation, one of the most important takeaways, at least for me, is this: what has been does not have to remain in place. Each of us has a choice to do the work and change our relationships to our experiences and past, and with some work, we can rewrite our stories.

As a bonus, Kate kindly recorded a shortened hypnosis meditation. Be sure to tune to that episode next as she guides us through showing up for our inner child. It’s truly a beautiful experience.
