Work Smart Hypnosis | Hypnosis Training and Outstanding Business Success

Ever feel like confidence is something elusive, always just out of reach, tied up in the stories you tell yourself? This week, I brought James Hazelrigg back for a powerful look at identity, storytelling, and the real meaning of confidence in change work. From pirate-themed AC/DC covers to transformative sessions behind jail walls, James reveals why the most effective techniques are not always found in scripts, but in the way you adapt, connect, and embody the art of narrative. You will hear how story structure and intuition shape client breakthroughs, whether that means helping someone step free of old habits or redefining themselves completely.James has spent years blending hypnotic language with performance, therapy, and even goat herding. His journey began with a literal birth into hypnosis and grew into a career changing lives, from anxiety sufferers to those ready to walk away from cigarettes for good. Along the way, his sense of identity and confidence has continually evolved, shaped by the stories he lived and told."Confidence comes from your identity, and identity is the story you tell yourself." ~James HazelriggToday on Work Smart Hypnosis:· Why your client's struggle is really a bad story, and your job is to help them write a better one· The art of starting sessions without a script, and trusting your intuition to lead powerful change· How the most striking moments are found when you are fully present, in the here and now· The secret to hypnotic storytelling, weaving change, resonance, and personal meaning into every tale· Why trance is not always necessary, and how everyday stories can create real results· How to use client wins and feedback files to reinforce your own confidence as a practitioner· The surprising truth about self-esteem, sometimes you are more confident than you realize· Tools for crowd management, engagement, and maximizing impact, from recovery centers to big audiencesConnect with James Hazelrigghttps://hypnosisaustin.com/Connect with Jason>> WorkSmartHypnosis>> AttractPreSoldClientsEngage & get supported in our FREE Work Smart Hypnosis community: >> https://Group.WorkSmartHypnosis.com/Build your confidence as a hypnotist in our next live & online certification course: >> https://www.WorkSmartHypnosisLIVE.com/Get on-demand self-guided access to Jason Linett’s hypnotherapy techniques library:>> https://www.HypnoticWorkers.com/Grow your hypnosis business with ready-to-launch action plans:>> https://www.HypnoticBusinessSystems.com/ Benefit from weekly coaching and new ethical sales persuasion systems every month:>> https://Influence.AttractPreSoldClients.com/ Get Jason’s “Attract Pre-Sold Clients” team to rebuild & launch your new website & funnels:>> https://www.DoItNow.vip/Launch/ Subscribe & send us your valuable feedback:>> https://wshpod.com/Apple-Podcasts>> https://wshpod.com/Spotify-Podcasts>> https://wshpod.com/Amazon-Music>> https://wshpod.com/iHeartRadio>> https://wshpod.com/Pandora>> https://wshpod.com/Facebook>> https://wshpod.com/YouTube Want to work with Jason for a personal change or to launch a new project in your business?>> https://www.JasonLinett.com/Apply

What if imposter syndrome as a hypnotist isn't something to overcome before you start your business... but something you work through by starting? Amy Cinnamond's first hypnotherapy client? A decorated Royal Navy commander. She almost talked herself out of showing up. She'd done the trainings and the practice, but she still doubted herself to deliver on the results. She showed up anyway. And that decision changed everything. In this episode, Amy gets honest about the gap between finishing your hypnosis training and actually building a practice... and why no certification closes that gap for you. If you've ever felt like you needed more credentials, more experience, or someone else's story before you could truly help a client, this conversation is going to challenge that thinking directly. Because the shift that took Amy from self-doubt to a thriving practice working with high-performing clients to reduce stress, conquer anxiety, and reach their personal goals... it wasn't another course. It was a decision to finally step into the work. Listen now! "The moment you give your client a new angle to look from, you immediately open up different possibilities, different ways of thinking." ~Amy Cinnamond Today on Work Smart Hypnosis:· How Amy overcame crippling self-doubt after booking her first hypnosis client... a real-life "James Bond" Royal Navy commander· Why waiting to "be the expert" keeps you stuck, and learning alone won't bridge the gap to truly helping others· The truth about working with clients from backgrounds you haven't experienced (and the secret reason don’t have to have the same story to be effective)· How free yourself from the imposter syndrome and performance anxiety that's been holding you back from becoming a hypnosis professional· Trusting your process: the mindset shift from forcing results to guiding exploration· Why addressing your own struggles isn’t a weakness, but the greatest gift you can give your practice and your clients Resources from this episode· https://www.amycinnamond.com · Amy on Facebook· https://www.HypnosisWebsite.com/ Connect with Jason>> WorkSmartHypnosis>> AttractPreSoldClients Engage & get supported in our FREE Work Smart Hypnosis community: >> https://Group.WorkSmartHypnosis.com/ Build your confidence as a hypnotist in our next live & online certification course: >> https://www.WorkSmartHypnosisLIVE.com/ Get on-demand self-guided access to Jason Linett’s hypnotherapy techniques library:>> https://www.HypnoticWorkers.com/ Grow your hypnosis business with ready-to-launch action plans:>> https://www.HypnoticBusinessSystems.com/ Benefit from weekly coaching and new ethical sales persuasion systems every month:>> https://Influence.AttractPreSoldClients.com/ Get Jason’s “Attract Pre-Sold Clients” team to rebuild & launch your new website & funnels:>> https://www.DoItNow.vip/Launch/ Subscribe & send us your valuable feedback:>> https://wshpod.com/Apple-Podcasts>> https://wshpod.com/Spotify-Podcasts>> https://wshpod.com/Amazon-Music>> https://wshpod.com/iHeartRadio>> https://wshpod.com/Pandora>> https://wshpod.com/Facebook>> https://wshpod.com/YouTube Want to work with Jason for a personal change or to launch a new project in your business?>> https://www.JasonLinett.com/Apply

Every hypnotic technique you'll ever use comes down to one simple two-word formula. Once you understand it, everything changes.Join me for this game changing episode where I reveal the linguistic foundation that underlies every hypnotic intervention, whether it's an induction, deepener, change work, age regression, parts therapy, or anything else. I share why understanding how and why techniques work matters more than collecting endless protocols, and how this single principle will transform your ability to customize for clients in real time.I break down the two primary factors that create lasting change, repetition and intensity, and share personal stories that illustrate both, including how my grandfather quit smoking cold turkey because of something I said as a child, and the moment that emotionally shifted my final 30 pounds of weight loss. You'll discover why the new story must overwrite the old story, how to address thoughts, feelings, and actions as the three legs of the tripod, and most importantly, the exact two-word formula, pacing and leading, that makes every technique work without exception.This episode features audio from my Work Smart Hypnosis Live training, including the powerful moment when a medical doctor realized "that's all you're doing?" and another practitioner who said I simultaneously amplified and "ruined" all his other trainings in the best possible way. Plus, I share the story of the hypnotist with the healing blanket induction on blue cardstock, and how understanding the framework freed him from scripts forever."The new story that is being created has to overwrite the old story." ~Jason LinettToday on Work Smart Hypnosis:· The two primary factors for creating lasting change: repetition and intensity, and how most change uses both· Why confidence comes from understanding how techniques work, not just collecting more methods· The three components of psychodynamic change: thoughts, feelings, and actions, the tripod model· How my grandfather quit smoking instantly because of one emotional moment, and what that teaches us· The exact two word formula behind every hypnotic technique: pacing and leading, cause and effect, action and result· Why pacing must be verifiably true without judgment, and how to recognize when you're adding opinion· How the previous lead becomes the next pace: the secret to freestyle hypnotic language· Complex equivalence: the power of the word "means" in creating hypnotic suggestions· Why most hypnotists don't realize how persuasive they already are, the personal trainer parallel· The blue cardstock story: how one hypnotist broke free from scripts by understanding the frameworkResources Mentioned:· Video of this Presentation · Work Smart Hypnosis Live & Online Training Connect with Jason>> WorkSmartHypnosis >> AttractPreSoldClients Engage & get supported in our FREE Work Smart Hypnosis community: >> https://Group.WorkSmartHypnosis.com/ Build your confidence as a hypnotist in our next live & online certification course: >> https://www.WorkSmartHypnosisLIVE.com/ Get on-demand self-guided access to Jason Linett’s hypnotherapy techniques library:>> https://www.HypnoticWorkers.com/ Grow your hypnosis business with ready-to-launch action plans:>> https://www.HypnoticBusinessSystems.com/ Benefit from weekly coaching and new ethical sales persuasion systems every month:>> https://Influence.AttractPreSoldClients.com/ Get Jason’s “Attract Pre-Sold Clients” team to rebuild & launch your new website & funnels:>> https://www.DoItNow.vip/Launch/ Subscribe & send us your valuable feedback:>> https://wshpod.com/Apple-Podcasts >> https://wshpod.com/Spotify-Podcasts >> https://wshpod.com/Amazon-Music >> https://wshpod.com/iHeartRadio >> https://wshpod.com/Pandora>> https://wshpod.com/Facebook >> https://wshpod.com/YouTube Want to work with Jason for a personal change or to launch a new project in your business?>> https://www.JasonLinett.com/Apply

Want to get your clients into trance faster and deeper – and have them raving about working with you?Listen now to this episode with hypnotist Matt Dickson to discover:• How to stop overcomplicating it and tap into simplicity for better client results• Why “traditional” hypnosis language can make or break rapport without you even realizing it• The hidden persuasive superpower already within you… and the one thing you need to unlock it! Matt (and his mustache) brings a unique perspective in this episode with his trauma-informed approach that bridges yoga, personal training, and hypnosis in ways that will transform how you think about client work – including what to do (or not to do) with abreactions, a deep-dive into the concept of "sthira-sukha", and why “permissive language” helps you get better results with your clients. Listen now! "Most hypnotists don't understand how persuasive they are, and that the client doesn't know about mind-bending language or the Elman induction and all these things. They just want the result. They just want to be hypnotized." ~Matt Dickson Today on Work Smart Hypnosis:· The slinky metaphor for nervous system regulation and abandoning either/or thinking· Why there's zero correlation between body image and body composition (and what that means for hypnotists)· How to avoid the trap of being ultra-creative when simple techniques work better· The problematic nature of patriarchal hypnosis language: "subject," "put you under," "drop you down"· Why permissive language can actually induce trance faster than direct commands· How to recognize when you've lost rapport… and strategies to bring it back· The critical difference between following an abreaction and respecting that it may be unrelated to the presenting issue· Why saying "everything I do is intentional" creates powerful pre-framing for sessions· How trauma-informed principles apply even outside of trauma-focused work· The power of simply asking: "Is there anything I haven't asked about that I should have asked about?"Resources Mentioned:· Stephanie Conkle's Profound Somnambulism Program· Martin Berkhan's article on "Fuck-Around-itis"· Dr. Flowers Induction· Krasner MethodConnect with Matt Dickson:· Visit Matt online at MattDicksonHypnosis.com· Follow Matt on TikTok: @thehypnoticyogiConnect with Jason>> WorkSmartHypnosis>> AttractPreSoldClientsEngage & get supported in our FREE Work Smart Hypnosis community: >> https://Group.WorkSmartHypnosis.com/Build your confidence as a hypnotist in our next live & online certification course: >> https://www.WorkSmartHypnosisLIVE.com/Get on-demand self-guided access to Jason Linett’s hypnotherapy techniques library:>> https://www.HypnoticWorkers.com/Grow your hypnosis business with ready-to-launch action plans:>> https://www.HypnoticBusinessSystems.com/Benefit from weekly coaching and new ethical sales persuasion systems every month:>> https://Influence.AttractPreSoldClients.com/ Get Jason’s “Attract Pre-Sold Clients” team to rebuild & launch your new website & funnels:>> https://www.DoItNow.vip/Launch/ Subscribe & send us your valuable feedback:>> https://wshpod.com/Apple-Podcasts>> https://wshpod.com/Spotify-Podcasts>> https://wshpod.com/Amazon-Music>> https://wshpod.com/iHeartRadio>> https://wshpod.com/Pandora>> https://wshpod.com/Facebook>> https://wshpod.com/YouTubeWant to work with Jason for a personal change or to launch a new project in your business?>> https://www.JasonLinett.com/Apply
