Subconscious. The word we all use…but do we really know what it means?
On this episode of The Unbuzzed Podcast, I sat down with hypnotherapist Janna to decode one of the most powerful and misunderstood buzzwords in the self-help space: the subconscious.
We talked about:
Why the human mind remains more powerful than any algorithm
But how our subconscious can cling to outdated patterns that no longer serve us
The difference between survival mode and thriving (hint: it's not more productivity)
And what happens when healing stops being your side hustle and starts being your job
Janna’s story, from award-winning photo editor at National Geographic to transformational hypnotherapist, is a masterclass in what it means to pivot with purpose. As someone who's changed jobs (and entire careers), I found it deeply inspiring. And I know so many others out there are in that same in-between: where the passion project is quietly hoping to become the main thing.
🔁 Whether you're trying to quit smoking (like I did, 15 years ago through one hypnosis session), break a pattern, or just understand why your brain won’t get out of its own way… this one’s for you.
Because “just think positive” doesn’t work if your subconscious is still stuck in 1997.
