An Interview with Amy

How long have you been coaching, as well as, using hypnotherapy with NLP and how did you get to be a Shape Your Success Expert?

To answer this question, it’s probably best that I share with you a defining moment and a “compelling story” that brought me to where I am today, coaching people like you who want to make changes in their minds to affect their visionary outcomes.

That defining moment in my life happened in mid-2002. A few months earlier, I was a human resources professional and I was becoming disappointed in a dead end job with nowhere to go because of an extreme reorganization. Having been left to handle the work of three other colleagues (who had been let go) plus my own, I was immersed in a situation of drama and chaos.

Because of this, my health was suffering. My doctor began telling me that my body was shutting down and if I didn’t leave that job I was going to die. So I went home and prayed. (Something I hadn’t done in a long time.) When I opened my eyes I saw a book on my dresser entitled Destiny of Souls by Michael Newton, which I hadn’t even read yet. Upon finishing it, (it’s about past life regressions and life between lives and how you can use them to find your destiny) I immediately enrolled to become a hypnotherapist and NLP Coach.

Right away I was able to book clients, however I wasn’t attracting enough to even pay my bills, plus I still had that dead end job.

Finally the day came and I collapsed at my employer’s. My doctor didn’t have to tell me twice. He said, “Amy, here’s the paperwork for a leave of absence. I’m giving you 30 days to build your business.”

My prayers had been answered and guess what? I built that business in 30 days. It wasn’t quite full, but I could survive and pay my bills. My health began to return and I felt great in under 6 months. I was able to reconnect with who I really am.

I have since made a commitment to dedicate the rest of my life to helping others who are sick of how their lives are going and to assist them in making positive changes in their lives - using easy and natural tools that can be learned by anyone.

Since then, I’ve worked with hundreds of private clients, given several seminar/workshops and I am now in the process of creating the “Shape Your Success System” – A series of steps to help you shape your success inside and out. These are steps that everyone needs to apply to feel and be truly successful (with purpose and meaning) in their lives.

Why should I choose you and the guidance that you offer?

Coaching, including hypnotherapy and NLP is for people who want to succeed at levels WAY above and beyond what they themselves can see and imagine. This is why Tiger Woods has a coach. I also read that for the NBA playoffs, Kobe Bryant hired an extra personal coach to do extra challenging work with him. Look at the results.

My guidance and coaching is for people interested in results. It's not counseling. It's not finding someone who will listen to your victim stories and commiserate with you. It's not about nurturing a person's narcissism and making their own hurt feelings become even more highly honored.

It's to create a future that would not have been created without my help.

Who are your clients exactly?

I work with people just like you, who are somewhat successful but have become stuck. They haven’t been taught exactly what to do to make their lives, health and careers easier. (Times have changed and the old ways to success aren’t working anymore.) By learning simple tools and easy steps to building a fabulous inner foundation, you naturally access motivation, end procrastination, sleep better, control pain (physical & emotional) and create the life you deserve.

How are you different from other coaches? (Including Psychotherapists, Hypnotherapists and NLP Coaches?

Although we might occasionally touch upon past challenges as they relate to the present, you have me as an expert who deals with creating, building and shaping a mental and emotional foundation (mindset) that will drive you toward the life of your dreams (whether you want to quit smoking, get over a food addiction, manage pain or a host of other challenges). I teach you how to make success easier than ever before. Most psychotherapists and hypnotherapists will focus on the past, but in my experience, it's rarely necessary to stay focused with that - it really is possible to make the changes from where you are now. What this means for you is that when you work with me, you continue toward your goals more quickly and easily than ever before. I am not a Jill-of-all-trades. I’ve simply become an expert in guiding people to make their lives easier and be more comfortable by using their subconscious minds. That’s why my clients get great results.

What type of personality do you work best with?

My services and programs have been created for people who are deadly serious about moving forward to create positive changes in their life. They have the commitment and desire to become healthier, more comfortable and make themselves just as worthy as everyone else. This is not for the person who puts everyone else first as this will take up their time and they won't be able to work on themselves. (These people usually don't realize that by taking care of themselves first, they show others how to treat them and make great examples for their family.)

Consider what you’ll do with me to be an action learning course. You will be expected to take serious and consistent action. No excuses anymore, just a different way of thinking and full support while you achieve your incredibly exciting goals.

For what type of person is this program NOT going to work?

Please know I can be selective in who I work with. I want to keep my reputation as being one of the best hypnotherapists and coaches in the area. I'm selective because I have a conscience and I just don’t think some people will get the results they want to sign up for. It just wouldn’t be fair to them.

In order to get the most out of our work together, those who are financially desperate should not begin to receive services from me, at least not right away. It’s been my experience that people in financial crisis do not trust the suggestions and recommendations I give them and do not do the work. (probably because they spend so much time worrying about how they are going to pay next month’s bills.)

If you fall within this category, it’s absolutely OK. We’ve all been in times of financial crisis at one point or another. Do yourself three (3) favors:

1. Begin putting some money aside, then call my office. This will take the edge off and provide a little more piece of mind. Mostly, it will de-clutter your mind enough to focus on your success and goals.

2. Sign up for the free Shape Your Success tools over email (click here to subscribe.) The free information will get you started toward your goals until you’re ready to work with me one-on-one. (Your information here is also private and will not be shared with anyone else.)

Doing these things will really help you get primed for our work. When you’re ready, call me and we’ll get started.

Another type of person I won’t work with (without exception) is the whiner or the chronic skeptic, as well as people who consistently make excuses for not getting their assignments done.

What results can I expect?

Although results vary by individual, you can expect:

In order for success to be easier than expected and quicker than you previously thought, commitment, willingness to take action and bring in an open mind to use tools that you haven't been aware of before. Areas that I have worked with for other clients (this is not an all inclusive list).

·         Create a healthier physical foundation.

·         Achieve a more peaceful attitude

             - relieve/control anger, worry & depression.

·         Attract outstanding opportunities & prosperity

·         Reach goals that you used to procrastinate on.

·         Set standards for how you treat yourself and how others treat you.

·         Learn to move through fears and challenges more easily.

·         Create a better marriage

·         Learn and retain information better

·         Receive specific tools for you to use: “Just add water.”

What you get with me is personalized to your needs, so you won’t be asked to work with something that you have already mastered.

How quickly can I expect results?

Obviously, this depends on your challenges, as well as, how much you put into the process and assignments. That said, virtually all clients notice a difference or see results within the first few of sessions. Most clients see lasting results in 6 to 10 sessions.
