In this episode of the Make Time for Success podcast, Dr. Christine Li is joined once again by the wonderful Rita Black—clinical hypnotist, weight management expert, and smoking cessation pro—for a candid and energizing conversation on breaking free from cycles of disappointment and self-sabotage. Rita shares her own story of struggling with weight and smoking, and reveals how she used hypnosis and a shift in self-identity to finally create lasting change in her life.
Together, they explore the powerful role of our internal dialogue, the pitfalls of the "I'll start tomorrow" mindset, and why true transformation always starts with believing in yourself. The episode is packed with encouragement on replacing harsh self-criticism with curiosity and self-compassion, and offers practical wisdom for anyone ready to move from feeling stuck to feeling empowered. With plenty of personal anecdotes, warmth, and actionable advice, this episode is perfect for anyone who wants to understand the deeper mindset shifts behind sustainable habits and happier living.
