    127. Soul Contracts, Past Lives, and Why Nothing in Your Life Is an Accident

    Spiritual hypnotherapy is not about escaping your life. It is about reconnecting to your soul, your intuition, and the deeper truth of who you are. In this episode, Stefanie sits down with Lynnsey Robinson, co-host of the High Vibin’ It Podcast and a spiritual hypnotherapist, for a deeply expansive conversation about hypnosis, spirituality, past lives, soul contracts, intuition, and what it really means to come back home to yourself. Lynnsey shares how spiritual hypnotherapy helps clients reconnect with their spirit through inner child healing, past life regression, spirit guides, ancestors, angels, and subconscious reprogramming. Together, Stefanie and Lynnsey explore what happens when you begin to see life from the soul’s perspective, including how hardships, relationships, and even painful experiences can become part of a bigger spiritual lesson without dismissing the very real human pain involved. They also dive into the power of nature, the illusion of separation, reincarnation, soul lessons, and why reconnecting to the natural world can help us remember who we really are. This episode is a beautiful invitation to stay curious, trust your inner knowing, and explore the spiritual tools that help you live with more meaning, connection, and alignment. In this episode, you’ll hear:  What spiritual hypnotherapy is and how it differs from clinical hypnotherapy  How past life regression, spirit guides, and inner child healing can support transformation  Why connecting to your spirit changes the way you move through hardship  A grounded conversation about soul contracts, reincarnation, and spiritual lessons  Why nature can be one of the most powerful portals back to yourself  How to stay open to spiritual concepts without forcing them on anyone else Guest: Lynnsey Robinson Co-host of the High Vibin’ It Podcast and creator of the Align Your Mind app, which includes hypnotherapy, EFT sessions, card pulls, manifestation tools, mindset support, and free content to help you reconnect with your next level self.

    126. You'll Walk Out Different Than You Walked In

    Hypnotherapy is not scary. It is structured, grounded, and designed to help you create real change at the subconscious level. In this microdose episode of Next Level You, Stefanie walks you through exactly what happens in your first hypnotherapy session, step by step, so you can feel confident scheduling one if you’ve been curious. She demystifies common misconceptions, explains how the process actually works, and shares why this modality is so powerful for high-achieving women who still feel held back by limiting beliefs like people pleasing, low self-worth, or lack of confidence. You’ll learn the full flow of a first session, including the interview portion where you define your desired outcome, the suggestibility exercises that build belief in the process, and the “change work” where new neural pathways are created so the shifts start showing up first in your thoughts, then in your behaviors. What you’ll learn in this episode:  Why Stefanie starts by demystifying hypnosis and addressing misconceptions  What hypnosis actually is, explained in simple, relatable terms  The “interview” portion and why your language matters for the subconscious  What suggestibility experiments are and why they build confidence  What an induction is and how you’re guided into a deep relaxed state  What “convincers” are and how they confirm you’re deep enough for change work  What happens during change work and how new neural pathways are formed  Why ongoing sessions can help strengthen new patterns over time Stefanie offers a free 15-minute consultation to answer questions and help you decide if hypnotherapy is the right fit, and invites you to DM her to get on her calendar.

    125. 6 Years of Talk Therapy VS. 3 Sessions to Freedom

    Hypnotherapy did not give Stefanie more information. It gave her freedom. In this episode of Next Level You, Stefanie shares the honest story behind her 12-year healing journey, including why six years of talk therapy and EMDR gave her a powerful foundation, but hypnotherapy became the modality that finally helped her create deeper, faster, subconscious change. She opens up about starting therapy in 2014 after stress began showing up in her body through gut health issues, ulcers, and GERD, and how that path eventually led her to uncover self-worth wounds, childhood patterns, unhealthy relationship dynamics, burnout, and old emotional programming. Stefanie explains why awareness alone is not always enough to create freedom, especially when limiting beliefs live in the subconscious mind. She breaks down how hypnotherapy helped her rewire beliefs through imagery, emotion, visualization, sensation, and metaphor, and why this work can shift patterns that talk therapy may only help you understand. This episode is not about dismissing talk therapy. It is about understanding when you have reached a plateau and may be ready for a deeper tool. In this episode, Stefanie covers:  What started her 12-year therapy and healing journey  The benefits and limitations of talk therapy and EMDR  Why awareness does not always equal lasting change  How hypnotherapy works with the subconscious mind  Why limiting beliefs often need to be rewired, not just understood  The time, energy, and financial cost of staying stuck in patterns  Why hypnotherapy can be a next-level tool for high-achieving women  How to know when it may be time to try something deeperLet us know what you think!

    124. The Healing Practices that Changed my Life

    Build your healing toolbox. The practice that changes your life will feel like coming home. In this episode of Next Level You, Stefanie shares why she stopped believing there is only “one right way” to heal, and how real transformation often happens when you combine multiple modalities that support the mind, body, subconscious, and spirit. She opens up about her own journey of realizing that talk therapy alone was not enough to heal certain patterns at the root, and how adding deeper tools helped her regulate her nervous system, reconnect to intuition, and create lasting change. Stefanie walks you through what it means to create a personalized healing toolbox, why you are allowed to experiment, and how to know what is truly working for you. This episode is an empowering invitation to try what calls to you, keep what resonates, and release what does not. In this episode, Stefanie covers: Why talk therapy can be powerful, but not always the full answer The difference between conscious healing and subconscious, body-based healing Tools she has used in her own journey, including EMDR, Reiki, hypnotherapy, subliminals, time in nature, and intuitive support How Reiki supported nervous system regulation and opened deeper healing How hypnotherapy can help reprogram beliefs around money, worthiness, and success Why healing through the five senses matters, and what “consumption” really includes How to know when you have found a modality that is truly for you If you have been feeling stuck or like something is missing, this episode will help you expand your perspective and start building a toolbox that actually fits the version of you you are becoming.

    123. What are you Actually Numbing?

    Your next level self does not need alcohol to feel confident, connected, or fun. In this episode, Stefanie is joined by Cate Reisburg of Coached by Cate for an honest conversation about alcohol, identity, and the mindset shifts that make lasting lifestyle change possible. Together, they explore why so many women default to drinking on autopilot, what it can reveal about what you’re numbing, and how choosing sobriety (or simply drinking less) often becomes a gateway to deeper self trust, better sleep, stronger boundaries, and more aligned relationships. Cate shares practical strategies for navigating social pressure, redefining what “fun” looks like, and staying true to the version of you you’re becoming. Stefanie also emphasizes the inner work that has to happen alongside behavior change, like asking the hard questions, getting real about your habits, and being willing to evolve your routines and even your friendships when needed. In this episode, you’ll hear:  Why reducing alcohol is often an identity shift, not just a health decision  How to handle social pressure without spiraling into people pleasing  Why some friendships change when you stop drinking  Tips for staying in control when you do choose to drink, including boundaries and pacing  The “future self” framework for deciding what habits stay and what habits go  Why sobriety can reveal what you’ve been avoiding, and how healing supports changeContact Cate via Instagram: @coachedbycate Let us know what you think!

    122. You Don't Have to Be Sick Enough to Want to Feel Better

    Peptides and GLP medications can be life changing, but they are not magic. They amplify what is already happening in your body, which is why your lifestyle, metabolic health, and expectations matter more than ever. In this episode, Stefanie sits down with Michelle Kilduff, a GLP + peptide performance coach, to bridge the gap between “getting the prescription” and actually getting lasting results. Michelle breaks down what peptides and GLPs do, why so many people stall or rebound, and the missing education piece that leaves people confused about dosing, reconstitution, side effects, and sustainable body composition change. They talk about why peptides can be an incredible tool when used responsibly, but also why this is the season to tighten up foundations like nutrition, strength training, sleep, and stress, not relax them. Michelle also addresses the shame and secrecy that can come with using GLPs and peptides, and invites listeners to get informed, ask questions, and seek professional guidance so they are not white knuckling the process alone. In this episode, you’ll hear:  What a peptide and GLP performance coach actually does  Why peptides and GLPs are not a “magic injection”  The biggest gap in the industry: lack of education and support  Why poor metabolic health and low quality lifestyle get amplified on peptides  What went wrong with the GLP boom and how to do it differently now  Common pitfalls: adverse effects, unrealistic expectations, rebound weight gain  Why strength training, protein, sleep, and lifestyle fundamentals still matter  How to reduce shame and make informed, empowered decisionsConnect with Michelle: Instagram: @michelle.kilduff (she can guide you toward quality peptide education and options through the link in her bio) Michelle’s website Let us know what you think!

    121. What Keeps me up at night (Therapist Edition)

    Your anxiety might not be anxiety. It might be hormones, nutrient deficiencies, or a body that is begging you to stop treating the symptom and start looking for the root. In this episode, Stefanie shares what truly “keeps her up at night” as a therapist and holistic practitioner. She gets real about a pattern she sees constantly in clients who are labeled with anxiety and depression, prescribed medication, and told their labs are “normal,” yet they still feel exhausted, foggy, reactive, and stuck. Stefanie explains why traditional talk therapy and medication can be helpful but are not always the full answer when the body is out of balance. She breaks down the physical symptoms that often get misfiled as mental health issues, why standard lab ranges can miss what is actually going on, and why she believes a whole-body approach matters if you want lasting healing. This episode is both a wakeup call and a permission slip to advocate for deeper testing, better support, and a more integrative path forward. In this episode, Stefanie covers:  Why some “anxiety and depression” symptoms may actually be hormonal or nutritional  The red flag symptoms she listens for (fatigue, brain fog, mood swings, sleep issues, PMS, weight changes, gut and skin concerns, low libido, and more)  The difference between “normal” labs and optimal levels  Why many people get stuck when they only use talk therapy or medication  How to advocate for comprehensive bloodwork and deeper answers  Why working with an integrative or functional practitioner alongside therapy can be a game changer If you have been told everything is fine but you know it is not, this episode will help you name what might be missing and what next steps to take.

    120. Microdose: What Keeps Me Up At Night (Mom Edition)

    The things that keep you up at night are not proof you are failing. They are proof you care. In this microdose episode, Stefanie gets real and vulnerable about the thoughts that run through her mind in the quiet moments, especially as a spiritual entrepreneur, wife, and mom. She shares the specific areas that tend to pull at her nervous system and why these worries are not about “doing it wrong,” but about being awake and intentional about what matters. This episode is a permission slip to name what has been weighing on you, release the guilt around it, and choose one small action that supports the version of you you are becoming. In this episode, Stefanie shares what keeps her up at night:  Staying consistent with nervous system care (and why it is a necessity, not a luxury)  Being fully present with her son and making sure he is having enriching, fun experiences  Pouring into her marriage and protecting the foundation of the family  Showing up in friendships with real reciprocity and intention  Learning to be okay with the never-ending to-do list and trusting what got done is enough  Staying committed to health and wellness routines that support her energy and capacity Challenge: Ask yourself: What keeps you up at night?
