From Perfectionism to Peace: Sara Nativi on Rebuilding Self-Esteem and Healing Anxiety

In this powerful episode of Mind Over Matter, we sit down with Sara Nativi—clinical hypnotherapist, RTT practitioner, and former professional ballet dancer—to unravel the intricate link between low self-esteem and high-functioning anxiety. Sara shares how perfectionism masks internal self-doubt, especially in high achievers, and how her ballet career shaped her understanding of burnout and emotional resilience. We explore how Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) dives into the subconscious mind to identify and rewire core wounds. Sara’s honest reflections on survival mode, self-trust, and how creative and analytical minds experience anxiety differently offer deep insights for anyone looking to heal from the inside out.

About the Guest: Sara Nativi is a certified clinical hypnotherapist and RTT practitioner who helps high achievers overcome perfectionism, self-doubt, and burnout by addressing subconscious patterns. Drawing from her background as a professional ballet dancer, Sara blends somatic awareness and therapeutic tools to guide clients toward emotional resilience and inner calm. Her work emphasizes the power of self-talk, reframing, and subconscious healing.

Key Takeaways:

• High achievers often suffer silently from low self-esteem due to constant external validation needs.

• Healing starts by identifying where and when self-esteem was lost—often in early life experiences.

• RTT accesses and reframes subconscious beliefs quickly and effectively.

• Creative individuals may absorb negative suggestions more easily, while analytical types may struggle with emotional disconnection.

• Shifting from survival mode to rest-and-digest states leads to reduced reactivity, more compassion, and emotional freedom.

• Healing is always possible, no matter your age or past.
