A few months ago, I attended a hypnosis workshop on Attraction.  One of the guest speakers was a pick-up artist who shared with the audience his technique.  He got so good at picking up women that he was juggling 38 girlfriends at one point.  This guy was different from the smooth-talking, gold chai...

For the past four years, I've been learning how to "leviwand" and "spin poi." Leviwand, if you've never seen one, is a baton with a string that you hold on to with a finger loop or a ball handle. Poi is two balls (or other objects) on a line or cord, also held with a finger loop or ball handle. To s...

My last real vacation was in October of 2019. A real break, as in I didn’t have to perform, see clients, take classes, teach classes, or be accountable to anyone but myself. Every trip I’ve been on in the last four years has been work-related. I may have done lots of fun things on those trips to bre...

A little over a year ago, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s hypothyroidism.  It seems weird to think that 30 years of my body doing strange things were easily answered in a simple blood test from Quest Diagnostics.  Hypothyroidism is becoming very common in women my age; however, a proper diagnosis o...

It was a beautiful weekend here in Florida…and I spent 99% of the weekend inside.  My husband is on antibiotics for an infection, and I’m recovering from a fall the previous weekend that left me with a skinned knee.  We decided to make the most of our weekend by being productive.  We moved into this...

Last year, I blogged about my mother being "my first hypnotist."  I shared this concept with a friend of mine who is the mother of a three-year-old.  A light bulb went off in her head.  She said, "Holy sh*t, do you mean I am my son's first hypnotist?"  

That's correct!  If you're a mother or a care...

A year ago, I was in bad shape.  To make it worse, I had symptoms that seemed to have no connection to each other.  I was having trouble walking up and down steps due to severe joint pain.  My arms hurt when I drank whiskey.  My nose got all stuffed up whenever I ate sweets.  I was experiencing seve...

The next blog in April, our month of Foolishness and Forgiveness, is about doing the WRITE thing.  That’s right…errr…write!

Doing the WRITE thing is about writing a letter.  It’s a letter where you dig deep into your soul, get in touch with your feelings, and pour your heart out into a letter.  The...

Hello, my name is Traci, and I’m a huge procrastinator. And if you’re reading this, later, because you know, you put off reading it…it’s because you’re a procrastinator too. I wish I could wave my magic wand and make all of the things I’m putting off doing just go away, but they persist. And then th...

We continue with our April blog theme of Fools and Forgiveness.  Last week I wrote about forgiving yourself…and this week will be on forgiving others.

One of the hardest parts of my job is encouraging my clients to “forgive” the other person for the horrible things they caused in the lives of my cl...

It is April…and my theme for this month is “Foolishness and Forgiveness.”  This week’s topic is “Forgiving Yourself,” because if there’s a common theme I see in all of my clients, it’s the inability to forgive ourselves for past mistakes, those stupid and horrible things we did to others, those stup...

Last week, I wrote about The Secrets of Sabotaging Your Success, which is basically “Where Focus Goes, Energy Flows.”  What you think about is what you become.  If you focus on “bankruptcy” or “don’t lose a turn” like my husband did when he was on Wheel of Fortune 14 years ago…then that is exactly w...
