What if your physical symptoms weren’t just physical at all? In this eye-opening first episode of a powerful two-part series, I sit down with Matt Travis—a mind-body transformation specialist, hypnotherapist, and expert in rapid transformation therapy—to explore the deeply overlooked role of the subconscious mind in healing chronic conditions like PCOS. From unpacking childhood beliefs and unprocessed emotional trauma to breaking free from diagnoses that limit us, Matt shares how the stories we hold onto—often buried deep in our subconscious—can silently dictate our health outcomes. He explains how hypnotherapy works (no, it’s not about clucking like a chicken), what actually causes long-term weight gain or symptom flares, and how Rapid Transformational Therapy is helping people rewrite their internal operating systems—for good. Whether you’ve hit a wall with traditional methods, or you’re just curious about how your mindset might be influencing your hormones, this episode will help you see healing through a completely different lens.
In this episode, we cover:

(0:03 - 0:31) Welcome back to PCOS Unfiltered, Nourish, Heal, Thrive, the podcast where we cut through the noise and get real about healing from the inside out. I'm your host, Lindsay, and today's episode is the first of a two-parter that is a powerful one and we are diving into the mind-body connection in a way you may have never heard before. My guest is Matt Travis, a mind and body transformation specialist, hypnotherapist, and expert in rapid transformation therapy.
(0:32 - 1:01) Matt helps people break free from the subconscious patterns and emotional blocks that keep them stuck so they can heal, grow, and live in alignment with who they really are. We're talking all things subconscious healing, the role our beliefs play in physical health, and just getting started on how German New Medicine brings a fascinating lens to conditions like PCOS. Whether you've struggled with symptoms that won't budge or you're just tired of feeling like your body's working against you, this episode will help you see things differently.
(1:02 - 1:12) So let's jump in. Okay, so welcome, Matt. Let's start with you.
(1:12 - 2:42) So can you tell listeners who you are, a little bit more about who you are, and how you got into hypnotherapy and what just first sparked your interest in the subconscious mind and its role in healing? Yeah, so I'm Matt Travis, and I am so excited to be here, Lindsie, because a lot of people maybe in your listeners have tried all of the traditional routes, right? That's why I kind of got into this is to figure out what body transformation and health transformation really consists of. So when I started back in two, I got out of college, physical education, health degree, and started, you know, teaching, and then coaching football, and then I got into fitness and strength and conditioning, certifications, all that stuff. And then I opened my gym, and I realized, like, I basically asked myself this question, how come some people get results and can't keep them? How come some people try everything and they never get results? And then how come it's so effortless for some people that get results and keep them no problem? What is that all about? And so that led me on like a 10 year journey from 2010 to 2020, to really understand human psychology and why we do what we do, why we get results, what this is really all about.
(2:42 - 3:03) So if you're listening right now, and you've been kind of like stuck, or you haven't found the thing that's working for you, I hope this conversation supports you and helps you, if nothing else, feel like you're not alone. Yeah, for sure. And I mean, I think we could go down a rabbit hole with how our stories align.
(3:03 - 3:21) But that's definitely something I saw in the gym, too. And you really helped open my eyes to all of that. So for people who aren't familiar, how would you explain the role of the subconscious in our everyday health and behavior? Yeah, so I like to keep it really simple.
(3:21 - 3:44) Imagine if you just had like a courtroom stenographer walking around with you your entire life, and just was taking notes on everything, all of the time, every single day. And imagine it was really, really, really taking notes very, very, very well from the ages of zero to seven years old. Okay, because that's when you just are like a sponge.
(3:44 - 4:23) You're in hypnosis, basically, that during that timeframe, and you're just picking up everything. Like I always like people to understand, like your parents have such an impact on you, probably more than anybody else, or your caregivers, whoever was bringing, you know, bringing you up. But your your parents, your caregivers, your teachers, your coaches from like, we could even go zero to 10, if you really wanted to, but like that timeframe is so impactful on really solidifying what's like a lot of your stories and the way that you interact with the world.
(4:24 - 4:52) And when I was questioning this, when I was asking myself that question, how come some people get results, you know, they go to a gym, or they do a diet, they lose, you know, 100 pounds, and then they gain it all back. What the hell is that about? And it's simply because you have a program that runs that your subconscious has taken notes on. And it's like, decided that this is what is safe, familiar, predictable, and certain.
(4:53 - 5:00) That's what it is. And so and it's great that we have this. So a lot of people get really angry about this.
(5:00 - 5:20) But it's so important. Like if we we wouldn't actually be here talking on this podcast right now, if that didn't exist, because we would have never survived this long. Like we needed we need the subconscious because you know, like when we were back, you know, hundreds 1000s years ago, we're on the plains of Africa.
(5:20 - 5:33) And we're like, trying to take these snapshots. So the subconscious is taking snapshots all the time, right? It's like snapshot, that's where the other tribe is. And it might attack at any time.
(5:33 - 5:40) So we got to remember where that is. Snapshot, there's the bear den, I got to make sure we don't go near that. So we don't get eaten.
(5:41 - 6:10) Right snapshot at nighttime, lions and tigers and things come out and we need to make sure that we have a person that stands guard so we don't all die, right? There's all of this that happens. And it's, it's so important that we have that, because it's what keeps us for it's what's kept us actually alive and safe, most of our lives. And we even have it where, you know, we were tribal people for so long.
(6:10 - 6:31) And if you were rejected from the tribe, that meant death. And so a lot of us massively, massively fear rejection. So like, for example, when we go out, we eat with our friends, you know, we go out, you go out for a girl's night, you're eating with your friends, you don't want to be the odd one out, not eating the things.
(6:31 - 6:48) And so what do we do, we turn into our pleaser self, and we start to, like, dive in, and then we regret that horribly the next day, because we're like, we feel horrible. So there's just so much more around this. Like the subconscious is, it's everything.
(6:48 - 7:00) It's everything, folks. It's what designs your identity, your beliefs, your patterns, your habits, your standards, your stories, all values, everything. So you're talking about how everything is processed.
(7:00 - 7:17) So how do unprocessed emotions or subconscious beliefs influence our health, physical health? Yeah, yeah. And I like people to picture it like this. Imagine that we all are walking around with a, like, filing cabinet in our head.
(7:18 - 7:34) Okay, so everybody have that picture in their head, they have a filing cabinet in your head. And imagine this filing cabinet, all the doors are open in the filing cabinet. And there's files like shoved in, some of them are crumpled up and put in there, some of them are hanging out, there's stuff flying out of it.
(7:35 - 7:47) Those are all of the unprocessed thoughts, feelings, events, all the stuff that we never processed. And we just kind of moved on. And we're like, I'm good.
(7:48 - 8:28) You're not like, like, that's why therapy, regardless, I'm not going to go into the deep, what we could, but there's many different kinds of therapy. Okay, there's talk therapy, there's so many different kinds. What I found is that when I can use rapid transformation therapy, which is a mix of neuro linguistic programming, psychotherapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, delivered on a platter of hypnosis and hypnotherapy, it allows me to ultimately help you unpack and put the file back in, in a way that makes sense.
(8:28 - 9:02) Because think of it this way, you might have an unprocessed file from your childhood, let's say, you know, one that I always think about, because this one stuck with me so much from one of my sessions was, people don't, when people think of trauma, they think war, or they think physical, sexual, emotional abuse, right? That's what they think of. They think of like very dark things. So I had this one client, she came to me, she was like, I just want to release weight, I just have so much trouble with and so on and so forth. (9:02 - 9:20) One of the scenes we went back to was her mother, when so when she was a freshman in high school, she put a tank top on and her mother said, you look fat, or you can't wear that type of thing. That was very traumatic to her. So trauma doesn't care.
(9:20 - 9:38) It's not like a level system, like your body is like, and well, of course, we don't categorize it as that either. We just know we didn't feel good when when this person we loved said that thing to us, but that took a snapshot. I'm fat, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, right? And so it sticks with you forever.
(9:38 - 9:59) So it's these unprocessed thoughts that that and emotions and feelings that we have around an event. It's not even the event because somebody else that had that same event could be like, shut up, mom, like, you know, like, get off my back and not it wouldn't even have stuck. But for this woman, it did.
(10:00 - 10:26) So everybody processes different things, but it's the meanings, the feelings and the meanings that we give to these things. And so when we can go through them, when we're an adult, we have a little bit more understanding and we have like, you know, our brain is fully formed, and we can actually make more logical and emotional shifts easier. That make sense? Yeah.
(10:27 - 10:30) Yeah, that's great. Yeah. I love the analogy of the file.
(10:31 - 10:57) It made so much sense. I was like, I feel so good when I think about it, because I'm like, that's why everyone, everyone can benefit from therapy, y'all like I we need to get rid of the stigma around therapy. I find a lot of people join a gym when they probably should go and talk to a therapist, like they join a gym to lose weight, when in actuality, they have unprocessed, they have a filing cabinet that is kind of messy.
(10:58 - 11:10) And they just need to go through that. But why do we not want to do that? We don't want to touch this, like, we don't want to look at it. But I said, I say, we can with clients, my clients, it's we see it, and we'd be free of it.
(11:12 - 11:28) I feel like you kind of touched a little bit. But what are what are some common limiting beliefs that you've seen in women, and maybe more specifically women with PCOS? Great question. I feel like, well, let's do PCOS first, and then we'll just do the broad.
(11:28 - 11:58) But I feel like when people get a diagnosis, right, diagnosis is like, it does some it does some things that are helpful, and then it can do some things that are not helpful. Okay, so for example, and this is something that was really powerful for me when I was younger. And for those of you that are listening, you'll start to know I, I go down these rabbit holes, call them ADHD side quests.
(11:58 - 12:20) So here we go, folks. So just to understand why diagnoses are really, really, really powerful, because we we have people telling us what we can and can't do our whole lives, or what will or won't happen to us. Right? So my entire childhood, I was told, you know, that I had learning disabilities and all this stuff.
(12:20 - 12:40) And then even in college, they were like, you know, my guidance counselor was like, you'd be lucky to get into college with your grades and your, your, you know, your your SAT scores. And I was like, you can't tell me what I can and cannot do. And then I got into college, same thing happened, they were like, you'd be lucky to get into the major.
(12:40 - 12:49) And I was like, you can't tell me what I can and cannot do. And then even at the end of college, they were like, you'd be lucky to get a job out of college. And I was like, can't tell me what I can and cannot do.
(12:49 - 13:06) And then I was listening to this speaker, this guy had no arms, no legs, and he was in a wheelchair, and he was just a motivational speaker. And I really wish I remembered his name, because it really had such an impact on me at that time. Because after those three events, I, he said something that stuck with me forever.
(13:06 - 13:33) He said, he said, never accept a diagnosis that doesn't empower you. And so I share this with you folks, because many of you that are listening to this have found Lindsay, because you have been diagnosed with PCOS, okay, and you may feel like I'm done, I'm cooked. There's no, there's no losing weight for me.
(13:33 - 13:51) It's just kind of how it is, right? So you have been given this diagnosis, and you have you created a meaning and a rule in your subconscious that there's nothing that we can do. Okay, and there's plenty. All right, there's plenty.
(13:52 - 14:40) When I started learning about women and female hormones, all that stuff and gut health and everything, I started to realize there's just a bunch of misinformation out there that leads people to believe another example of this is anybody that when I just say the word menopause, that can cause a woman that's not in menopause to just kind of have a hot flash or a freak out feeling that they're like, Oh my god, I can't I never want to go through that because you hear horror stories. Okay. And a lot of those horror stories are because those individuals just accepted that fate, and they didn't realize that sleep, food, and movement can make that so much better.
(14:40 - 14:51) So like, so, so much easier. And the same goes for PCOS. Okay, so there's always hope, like my, my LLC is called Save Hope.
(14:51 - 15:12) It's I, and I started it back when I ran my gym. And it was just this idea that, folks, this can, this can work out for you. And your mind is the most powerful computer ever of all time, ever, ever, ever, ever.
(15:12 - 15:31) And your mind is creating your actions or inactions. So it's creating everything. So if you have a belief in a story that you can't lose, I like to use the word release weight, then you won't.
(15:32 - 15:56) So it's that saying, whether you believe you can or can't, you're right. So for for anyone that's listening, like if you've, if you've accepted your diagnosis, that it doesn't empower you, look at it and say, you know what, there's a reason you stumbled across Lindsey, like there's a reason you're here. There's a reason you're listening.
(15:57 - 16:16) Okay, so that's, that's whatever you believe that's, it's what's led you to here. Okay. So I remember speaking, I was speaking to a room of 100 people and a woman raised her hand and she said, I can't lose weight.
(16:17 - 16:30) And so I asked her a question and she had a massive shift. All I asked her, I said, have you ever, you know, or she said, I can't lose weight. I said, have you ever released weight before? Have you ever lost weight before? She said, oh yeah, a ton of times.
(16:31 - 16:49) And I said, okay, so losing weight isn't your issue. Her issue was keeping it off, right? Why was it keep, why was the issue keeping off? Because there's programs that run to keep you coming back to those things. And it's not just your programs from childhood.
(16:49 - 16:59) It's programs from like literally our whole society is programmed. Like from the movies and anyone that's listening. I want you to shout it out in the car or wherever you're listening to this.
(17:00 - 17:25) When a woman in a movie gets broken up with in a movie, if they have a breakup, what do they then go and eat in the breakup? What do they go and eat in the breakup? They show her in her apartment, sweatpants, kind of crazy, you know, wild, messy hair. She's crying. She's eating.
(17:26 - 17:36) She's eating something, right? Everybody's having this picture. I don't even need to say it. They already know, right? She's eating an entire carton of ice cream, right? And she's just married up.
(17:36 - 18:06) Why is that every movie? Why is that the same thing? Why do we know the type of soda that Santa Claus drinks? Why do we know that, right? So you're being marketed and sold to consciously, subconsciously all the time, folks, all the time. And it's our job. It's our job to take ownership and responsibility of our lives and know that we can change everything.
(18:07 - 18:21) And it all starts in the mind, specifically the subconscious. But the conscious is the first line of defense, which we can go down that rabbit hole. But did that answer the question, I think? Oh, for sure.
(18:21 - 18:44) I mean, I think if you're listening, if you don't take anything else away, that right there, I think, is the most powerful stuff. And even seeing it from the medical side, when a patient gets handed a diagnosis, a lot of the times, this is a lifelong condition. Or this is something we're going to have to manage.
(18:45 - 18:56) That already puts that in your head, right? And so, yeah. So being able to see past that is huge. So I loved all the stuff you just said there.
(18:57 - 19:18) Yeah, can I add one piece to that? Because like, I remember, so this is nothing against doctors and the medical profession. This is just simply like, most of what's happening is based off of two things. It's just research over the long term changes things, right? And then there's also money involved in this, folks.
(19:19 - 19:35) They're like, weight loss is a billion dollar industry, maybe trillion. I don't even know. It's a lot, okay? But the thing is, is that there's tons of money to be had in this, right? There's Mozambique, there's all these different things.
(19:35 - 20:02) But I remember hearing this story that like, blew my mind. And it was the story of how back in the day, I don't even know when that is, when back in the day is, but it was, let's just imagine the early 1900s, okay? And there was a lot of women dying from childbirth. Okay, and they were just, they were just passing away after childbirth.
(20:02 - 20:22) And one guy postulated, he was like, he basically figured it out. He was like, you know what, I think it's the fact that us doctors, we are, you know, we're working with cadavers, and we're working with these dead bodies. And then we're going and we're, you know, delivering babies.
(20:22 - 20:35) After that, I think there might be a germ issue. Like, I think there might be an issue that's causing this problem. And literally, for 50 years, they were like, nope. (20:38 - 20:50) No, that's not, that's not, that's not. No, they wouldn't accept it. And then finally, they, it took some time for them to accept that this is actually how it is.
(20:51 - 21:02) So that blew my mind. And I remember being like, duh, hello. And so, so what happens is a lot of times it's that the doctors don't know.
(21:02 - 21:15) They don't, most doctors have like an hour worth of nutrition in their, in their whole degree. Eight years. So like, that's not, unless they go above and beyond.
(21:15 - 21:29) And that's why finding a great, you know, primary care is important. But it's like, unless they go and do the research themselves, they're not going to know this stuff. And so I realized that if I didn't learn this on my own, like no one was going to teach me this.
(21:29 - 21:35) Like I, I, I had horrible gut health issues. Like I destroyed my gut health. And we could go down that rabbit hole today.
(21:35 - 21:56) But that's what led me to be like, I'm not only going to help myself with my own hormones and my gut health and all this stuff, but I'm going to draw a line in the sand so that I can support anyone that comes across in my life so that they don't have to feel alone. Yeah. Yeah.
(21:57 - 22:18) So can you share how hypnotherapy actually works to help rewire all of this stuff? Yeah, hypnotherapy freaks people out. Okay. Why? Because it's, the irony is the craziest part of it, right? Because your subconscious is like, I've seen stage hypnosis.
(22:19 - 22:29) You're going to make me clock like a chicken or bark like a dog. Or, you know, what if he's, what if he gets me to rob a bank or whatever? Like that's none of that's real folks. Okay.
(22:29 - 22:41) But guess what's happening when you, when you believe that your mind is like, uh, it's going back to a subconscious program that that's not safe. And it's simply because you just don't know. All right.
(22:41 - 22:50) There's just, no one's ever explained it to you. No one's ever walked you through it. No one's ever, um, helped you understand it.
(22:50 - 23:15) Okay. So when people come to me and they get ready to go through a session, so like Lindsie has done sessions with me, so it's been, it's, so like what happens is, is that first thing I'll say is any good, uh, hypnotherapists or rapid transformation therapists, they, they believe like, I believe like I'm big into Spider-Man with great power comes great responsibility. Okay.
(23:15 - 23:24) Because you're about to learn more about this person than pretty much anybody else. Okay. So what that does is that freaks people out.
(23:25 - 23:47) But everything that, that, that person has said is completely confidential, right? Like it stays with me and I would never mention their name, like their name with the, you know, the thing that they said to me, that's crazy pants. Okay. So the first thing is that it's finding the right person that you feel totally safe.
(23:47 - 24:02) Cause you're, you're, there's a lot of people out there that are like, oh, I can't be hypnotized. And it's simply because they've, they've solidified that belief that they can't be hypnotized. And so their subconscious latches on.
(24:02 - 24:19) It's like a wild thing. There's so much, uh, the deeper down this rabbit hole I've gone, it blows my mind. But let's say you, let's just imagine right now listeners that you are here for a session and I will walk you through exactly kind of what, what goes down.
(24:19 - 24:35) So we start off with the session and I always tell people you are in 100% control 100% of the time. If we need to come out at any time, we can come out. You are, you're, you're running the show.
(24:35 - 24:40) I'm just guiding. I'm just the guide during this entire process. You get to decide what happens.
(24:40 - 24:51) I, it's not possible for me to hypnotize somebody who doesn't want to be hypnotized. Okay. And really all, all hypnosis is, is just changing a brainwave state.
(24:51 - 24:57) Okay. So here, this is where it gets really interesting folks, right before you go to sleep. Okay.
(24:57 - 25:02) I want you to imagine you're lying on your pillow. You're about to fall asleep. Your eyes are closed, all that stuff.
(25:02 - 25:09) You're already making that transition into a different brainwave state. It's the same deal. It's the same thing.
(25:10 - 25:31) Okay. So all I'm doing is I'm kind of just turning off that protective mechanism that would make it so that you wouldn't even be able to know the stuff that you like, it blocks the ability for it. So that, that's why you could go to, you know, a decade of talk therapy and never actually get to the root cause of the issue.
(25:32 - 25:44) So when I heard that, I was like, man, I got to make sure that I can speed this process up for people who will have a decade, you know, or more to, to get to that. And that's not ever. And this is very important.
(25:44 - 25:54) It's not every therapist. There's some really amazing therapists out there that can get to the root really quickly. But when you write off hypnotherapy as just like, uh, it's too freaky.
(25:54 - 26:01) It's too scary. You're accepting a diagnosis that doesn't empower you. Right.
(26:01 - 26:06) So we're in the session. You're in 100% control. 100% of the time.
(26:06 - 26:13) I say, you're going to look up into your eyebrows. And if you're listening right now, don't do anything. So I'm about to say, okay, if you're driving or anything, okay.
(26:15 - 26:28) I listen to a lot of stuff on walks or like when I'm driving. So I just don't want anybody to get hurt. So you look up into your eyebrows to a real or imagined spot overhead and you start to breathe in and breathe out.
(26:28 - 26:32) And we do that a couple of times. And what happens to me naturally is I start blinking. Okay.
(26:32 - 26:44) And that's starting to shift into a different brainwave state. Okay. And so what happens is after I do that about three or four times and I close down their eyes and what that does is it starts to create this fluttering behind your eyelids.
(26:45 - 27:04) So I can actually see it a lot of the times when somebody has that going on for them. I feel like that's probably what a lot of the stage hypnosis folks look for as well is like, what is their state? Are they susceptible? Okay. And then I take them and I walk them down an imaginary set of stairs.
(27:04 - 27:16) Okay. So I haven't looked down, pretend they're walking down 10 steps and I bring them down even deeper and deeper and deeper. And I snap and do all this fun stuff and I'm just bringing them into an even deeper state.
(27:16 - 27:27) Then I do another, I do different kinds of deep runners with people. There's many different ways to do this. And I just play off of whatever the person is, is, uh, showing right then and there.
(27:27 - 27:48) But I, you know, an example of one is I can help. I can have them imagine they have two magnets in the palms of their hands and they reach them out straight in front of them. You're not gonna be able to see this camera, but, uh, just, I have them imagine they have two, you know, magnets in the palms of your hands and they're coming closer and closer and closer and they touch or almost touch.
(27:48 - 28:04) Like I would say 98% of the people, their hands touch and then they brought dropped down into the lap and I go way, way, way deeper. And so all of this is just to get them into that state. And what happens then in there, sometimes I'll bring them to a place, I'll bring them to a beach or whatever it is.
(28:04 - 28:23) Right. It depends on what, if it's their first time and whatnot. Um, but, uh, at this point now we can start to go back to scenes in your life that help help us identify where this all began.
(28:23 - 28:38) Like what were the scenes and what was the mean feelings and meanings that we put to these scenes that created this subconscious program, belief and habit. It's all it is. And I've done about 500 sessions, maybe more.
(28:39 - 28:51) I have kind of lost count at this point, but I've gone on a lot of journeys with people. And this is the best way I like people to understand scenes like regressions going back to these scenes. You are not reliving this stuff.
(28:51 - 29:02) So that's what people are afraid of reliving it. Cause they think like traditional therapy, you go in the office, you talk about your problems. You basically poke these wounds that were kind of healing.
(29:02 - 29:16) You poke them, it hurts again. And then you go home and you're like, shit, Chris, sorry, bleep. Now Lindsay's got to go back and do extra work there.
(29:19 - 29:29) Um, but that's what happens. And it's like, people are like, I don't want to do that. But what happens when we go through it this way is we get to see it and let it go.
(29:29 - 29:45) We see it and we'd be free of it. Okay. And so that's the beauty of this is, is I like to think of it like if you and I were going to a movie theater together and we go to the movie theater, we're sitting in the seats and out in the, the previews come on.
(29:45 - 29:56) I'm like, oh, I got to run to the snack shack. And I, uh, I'm like, here's a walkie talkie and I'm going to take one too. So you can tell me what's happening in these, in these scenes.
(29:56 - 30:03) Okay. So I go to the snack shack and you're telling me, you're like, oh, I'm seeing this thing. So you're not reliving it.
(30:03 - 30:16) You're just seeing this scene on the screen timeline of your, you know, your mind and you're seeing the scene, you're not reliving it. And I'm just asking you questions about the scene. I'm actually not trying to solve anything right then and there.
(30:16 - 30:34) I'm just becoming a inquisitive, uh, you know, detective. And I'm just learning what was the scene? What was the feelings that you had about the scene? And what did, what, what did you make that mean? Okay. And that allows us to gather all of these different scenes.
(30:34 - 30:58) So we gather about three or four of them. And then this is where I think this is a superpower that I have as, as an individual with ADHD that truly believes that it's a superpower. I have the ability to draw a line from through all of the scenes and, and see the storyline and see the belief that's, that it's created.
(30:58 - 31:08) Okay. And the nice part is then when we come together, I let you verbalize what it is though. Like I help, I let the person like say this.
(31:08 - 31:21) And usually when they say it out loud, a lot of times waterworks happens because they have let it go. Okay. So I do have people bring tissues and things like that because we're going to let it go folks.
(31:21 - 31:23) Yes, it happens. Right. And we get to let it go.
(31:23 - 31:30) And it's a, it's a, I like to think of it as a, it's a good release. Okay. And I've seen releases in every sort of way.
(31:30 - 31:45) And I remember when I did, uh, you know, cause I, I practice what I preach folks. Like I've done everything for myself that I, that I do with other people. So I, I've done my own, uh, rapid transformation, hypnotherapy, past life aggressions, all this stuff.
(31:45 - 32:16) And, um, I remember when I, when, when I put it all together in my own session that in one of my own sessions that I said out loud, I said, I thought my brain was broken because when I was younger, I had so many learning disabilities. Like I literally had to relearn how to read as I was heading into high school. So I had a lot of stuff around that and it helped it, it led me to believe that.
(32:16 - 32:31) And I never verbalized it like that. I never, it had never come out of my mouth that I thought my brain was broken. And Holy moly, I was like, well, like, like just lost it because I had never realized I'd been holding onto that for 35 years.
(32:31 - 32:45) Y'all. So some people go to the grave with this stuff. Some people have been holding onto something, you know, since they were three, four or five, some are in the womb.
(32:45 - 33:03) I had a scene in the womb and I had another woman. She had a scene, she was in the womb and we were, so just so everybody knows, most of the stuff is a lack of enoughness. We feel like we're not good enough in some way, shape or form, self-love, self-worth, capability or confidence.
(33:03 - 33:25) And so this woman went back and she was in the womb and her mother was, her mother was debating on giving her up for adoption because the father at the time was like, we can't keep it, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And so the first thing that we develop in the womb is our ability to hear. So she was hearing all of this stuff.
(33:26 - 33:52) And so her enoughness literally started in, in that moment, her lack of enoughness started in that moment and she held onto it for so long. That was why she had trouble releasing weight. Like, cause she never, and, and, and I mean, we can go down this rabbit hole too, but later on when I learned this, I learned that your body keeps the score and your cells and your psyche, brain and organs were all connected through Germany medicine.
(33:56 - 34:09) I hope that conversation opened your heart and mind to a whole new layer of healing. So many of us are taught to chase physical symptoms or follow a checklist. But today was a reminder that true healing often starts within.
(34:09 - 34:27) A huge thank you to Matt Travis for sharing his wisdom and passion for transformation. You can learn more about his work and connect with him using the links in the show notes. And if this episode lit a fire in you, if you're ready to go deeper into your own healing, I want to personally invite you to join my next round of the hunger boss challenge.
(34:27 - 34:44) Starting on August 18th. It's where we explore the connection between mindful eating, emotional triggers and sustainable change, because when you learn to listen to your body, everything changes.
