They say 'clothes maketh the man' (or woman) but what about your fingernails too? How good are they at showing you in the best way possible? Picture the scene; there you are, presenting to your client's senior board members regarding an important contract ...

"Crikey! Not another Imposter (Impostor) Syndrome article in my news feed!" It does seem that every few weeks a news story breaks that reports how a high ranking director of an organisation has been dismissed when it's been discovered that their cv and career history was fabricated.

I'm going to lift the lid in this blog post on the biggest lie about hypnosis, one which too many people believe is true, so read on and decide for yourself whether you still believe it's true afterwards. Read this, or watch the video below. If you've ever watched a stage hypnosis show you'll have seen the hypnotist making people do fun things on stage … & if you've ever…

Ping. Another text message received. "Can you help me to quit using cannabis with hypnosis?" And then begins the opportunity for me to help turn a clients life around - but first I may need to help them to overcome the disinformation they may have thought was true. "Will it work for me?"
