    From Fear to Freedom: Learning to Turst Instead of Control

    Tawnya Jacques — mother, wife, hypnotist, and teacher — shares how learning to let go of fear, control, and self-judgment has led her to a new kind of freedom. In this conversation, we explore how: Letting go of control helped her shift from tension to trust, especially in parenting teenage boys. Old patterns of fear, perfectionism, and people-pleasing were showing up in her relationships, her parenting, and even her intimacy. Learning hypnosis and NLP gave her tools to move from self-judgment to self-trust, and build healthier relationships. Embracing freedom, flexibility, and curiosity has become a way of life. This shift is helping her kids become more confident, independent, and emotionally resilient. She discovered the difference between having rules and embodying values (and why that matters more than we think). Finding her voice as an independent woman means she no longer has to earn love through control or overgiving. She can build connection from a place of confidence.Tawnya Jacques is the heart behind Hamilton Hypnosis, where she helps people shift stuck patterns and find their way back to peace, purpose, and possibility. With a background in education and a deep love for helping others grow, she’s also a proud wife to Ben and mom to Caleb (16) and Callum (14), her daily reminders of love, laughter, and life’s sweetest moments.
