Rewire Your Mind: Hypnotherapy, Heart Coherence & the Science of Calm with Fiona Brennan #102
What if your thoughts, emotions, and confidence were just habits—and you could change them?
In this powerful conversation, Paul sits down with Fiona Brennan, clinical hypnotherapist and bestselling author of The Positive Habit and Sleep Well, to explore how we can rewire our subconscious mind, shift emotional patterns, and live from the heart—not just the head.
