136. Their Comfort Zone Is Not Your Roadmap to Success

You do not need everyone to understand your vision before you go after it. You just need to trust that it was put on your heart for a reason. In this episode, Stefanie shares a powerful reminder about pursuing what truly lights you up, even when other people do not understand it, support it, or see the bigger picture yet. She talks about stepping into new roles, launching new offers, and learning not to let other people’s fear, pride, insecurity, or limiting beliefs dim her own light. Stefanie breaks down why people may feel triggered when you expand, why their discomfort is not your responsibility, and why waiting for outside approval will keep you stuck. This episode is a permission slip to stop playing small, trust your intuition, and move forward with the dreams, projects, launches, and visions that feel deeply aligned. In this episode, Stefanie covers: Why not everyone will understand what lights you up How other people’s fear and insecurity can get projected onto your dreams Why approval should never be a requirement for moving forward How to know when a vision is truly aligned Who to listen to, and who not to listen to What changes in your business, relationships, confidence, and life when you stop dimming your light Let us know what you think!

132. The Gifts You Receive Inside the Waiting Season

Waiting can be one of the hardest spiritual assignments, especially when you are being asked to surrender the one thing your heart wants most. In this episode, Stefanie sits down with Spenser Brassard , life and fertility coach, author of Fertile Ground , and host of the Fertile Ground Podcast . Stefanie shares how Spenser's work deeply supported her during her own seven-year fertility journey, and together they have a powerful conversation about infertility, surrender, identity, motherhood, and finding yourself in the waiting. Spenser opens up about her eight-year fertility journey, unexplained infertility, IVF, miscarriage, and the mindset and spiritual shifts that helped her move from obsessive control into deeper trust, self-compassion, and full-body surrender. Together, they explore how fertility can be understood not just as pregnancy, but as the ability to create, receive, expand, and become the woman you are being called to be. This episode is a beautiful reminder that you are allowed to want what you want, but you are also allowed to live, heal, grow, and experience joy while you are still waiting. In this episode, you’ll hear: Spenser's eight-year fertility journey and what it taught her about surrender Why trying to control every outcome can create more suffering How to support yourself emotionally during a waiting season Why compassion for your humanity is part of healing The difference between wanting motherhood and making a child responsible for your happiness How the lessons inside Fertile Ground can apply to any area of life where you are waiting, creating, or becoming Connect with Spenser: Instagram: @Spenserbrassard Podcast: Fertile Ground Podcast on Apple Podcasts and Spotify Book: Fertile Ground available on Amazon Let us know what you think!

131. The Real Secret to Faster Manifestations

Manifestation moves faster when your subconscious actually believes you are worthy of receiving what you want. In this episode, Stefanie breaks down how hypnotherapy can accelerate manifestation by clearing the subconscious blocks that keep you stuck in doubt, resistance, and old programming. She shares her own manifestation journey, including calling in her son Augie, building a soul-aligned business, reaching financial goals, and creating more abundance by doing consistent hypnotherapy work. Stefanie explains why affirmations, vision boards, journaling, and visualization can be powerful tools, but they cannot override what your subconscious believes to be true. She connects the science of subconscious reprogramming with the energetics of manifestation, showing how your beliefs shape your emotional state, your vibration, and what you are able to attract. This episode is a reminder that you are not manifesting “wrong.” There may simply be a subconscious belief creating resistance, and once that belief is rewired, everything can start to shift. In this episode, Stefanie covers: Why manifestation can feel slow when subconscious blocks are still present How hypnotherapy helps rewire old beliefs and create new neural pathways The connection between subconscious beliefs, emotional state, and vibration Why consistent hypnotherapy creates compound healing over time How clearing worthiness, money, and receiving blocks can open the door to faster manifestations Why alignment comes from subconscious healing, not forcing or trying harder Let us know what you think!

130. Stop Hating Your Body & Start Owning It

Your body is not the problem. The story you keep telling yourself about your body is what needs to change. In this episode of Next Level You , Stefanie sits down with Morgan Barkus , founder of The Confidence Stage , for an honest, empowering conversation about body confidence, self-worth, sensuality, and learning to feel confident in your body now, not someday when it looks different. Morgan shares her journey from struggling with body image and disordered thoughts to becoming an empowerment coach who helps high-achieving women stop hating their bodies and feel confident naked, in bed, and in real life. Together, Stefanie and Morgan unpack how diet culture, negative self-talk, comparison, and societal programming keep women disconnected from their bodies. Morgan shares how she helps women reprogram the thoughts they have when they look in the mirror, reconnect with their sensuality, and build confidence through mindset, movement, food freedom, and self-trust. This episode is a reminder that confidence is not something you earn after your body changes. It is something you choose, practice, and reprogram into your mind one thought at a time. In this episode, you’ll hear: Why body confidence starts with the thoughts you think about yourself How to challenge and reprogram negative self-talk Why food choices should support how you want to feel, not punish your body How dance, movement, and sensuality can help you reconnect with confidence Why your environment, social media, and friend circle matter more than you think Morgan’s practical advice for women who feel like they have “tried everything” Connect with Morgan: Website: https://morganbarkus.com/ Podcast: Your Unapologetic Life Instagram: Linked through Morgan’s website Let us know what you think!

129. The Missing Link Between Understanding & Actually Healing

Hypnotherapy creates the shift. Talk therapy helps you integrate it, celebrate it, and understand what comes next. In this microdose episode of Next Level You , Stefanie breaks down why hypnotherapy and talk therapy do not have to be an either/or decision. Instead, she shares how combining both modalities can create a deeper, more supported healing experience, especially for those who want to heal limiting beliefs, trauma patterns, people pleasing, perfectionism, self-sabotage, or other subconscious blocks at the root. Stefanie explains how hypnotherapy works with the subconscious mind to create new neural pathways, while talk therapy provides space to process the shifts, celebrate wins, build insight, and plan the next layer of healing. She shares what an ideal rhythm could look like, such as alternating hypnotherapy and talk therapy sessions, and why this approach can help clients feel both challenged and supported. In this episode, Stefanie covers: Why hypnotherapy and talk therapy are more powerful together What each modality supports in the healing process How hypnotherapy helps release what is stuck and rewire limiting beliefs Why talk therapy is valuable for integration, reflection, and celebration What an alternating session structure can look like Who may benefit most from combining both approaches Let us know what you think!

128. The Belief That's Running Your Life Without Your Permission

The “not enough” story is not who you are. It is old programming, and it can be rewritten. In this episode, Stefanie dives into the self-worth wound and how it quietly runs the lives of so many high-achieving women. She explains how the belief of “I’m not enough” often lives in the subconscious mind, showing up through perfectionism, people pleasing, overachieving, imposter syndrome, self-doubt, and the constant need to prove yourself. Stefanie breaks down why achievement alone will never heal a self-worth wound, because the belief does not live in your accomplishments. It lives in your subconscious programming. She shares how hypnotherapy can help access the root of those beliefs, reframe the stories that created them, release the stored pain in the body, and install a new belief: I am inherently worthy. This episode is a powerful reminder that you do not have to keep chasing worth through credentials, income, approval, or external validation. You are allowed to stop proving and start believing. In this episode, Stefanie covers: What the self-worth wound is and how it shows up Why high achievers often get stuck on the “achievement treadmill” Where “not enough” stories usually come from Why talk therapy can bring awareness, but may not fully rewrite the belief How hypnotherapy helps reprogram subconscious worthiness beliefs What changes when you finally believe you are enough Why healing this wound can shift your business, relationships, confidence, and voice Let us know what you think!

127. Soul Contracts, Past Lives, and Why Nothing in Your Life Is an Accident

Spiritual hypnotherapy is not about escaping your life. It is about reconnecting to your soul, your intuition, and the deeper truth of who you are. In this episode, Stefanie sits down with Lynnsey Robinson , co-host of the High Vibin’ It Podcast and a spiritual hypnotherapist, for a deeply expansive conversation about hypnosis, spirituality, past lives, soul contracts, intuition, and what it really means to come back home to yourself. Lynnsey shares how spiritual hypnotherapy helps clients reconnect with their spirit through inner child healing, past life regression, spirit guides, ancestors, angels, and subconscious reprogramming. Together, Stefanie and Lynnsey explore what happens when you begin to see life from the soul’s perspective, including how hardships, relationships, and even painful experiences can become part of a bigger spiritual lesson without dismissing the very real human pain involved. They also dive into the power of nature, the illusion of separation, reincarnation, soul lessons, and why reconnecting to the natural world can help us remember who we really are. This episode is a beautiful invitation to stay curious, trust your inner knowing, and explore the spiritual tools that help you live with more meaning, connection, and alignment. In this episode, you’ll hear: What spiritual hypnotherapy is and how it differs from clinical hypnotherapy How past life regression, spirit guides, and inner child healing can support transformation Why connecting to your spirit changes the way you move through hardship A grounded conversation about soul contracts, reincarnation, and spiritual lessons Why nature can be one of the most powerful portals back to yourself How to stay open to spiritual concepts without forcing them on anyone else Guest: Lynnsey Robinson Co-host of the High Vibin’ It Podcast and creator of the Align Your Mind app , which includes hypnotherapy, EFT sessions, card pulls, manifestation tools, mindset support, and free content to help you reconnect with your next level self.
