Meet the Founder: Michaela Peck
I launched Michaela Peck Hypnotherapy in May 2024 with a simple but powerful belief: change can happen instantaneously…if you know how to communicate with your mind.
My story:
I have lived the story of insecurity - of playing small; feeling disconnected from myself and everyone around me; feeling lost. I know what it’s like to feel stuck, overanalyzing my every move yet somehow still not making progress towards my goals.
I have also lived the story of transformation - of shifting my perception of myself, breaking through my insecurities, and stepping into bold action. In discovering my life’s work, I discovered something deeper: my potential + power.
For years, my career followed a traditional path - I graduated with an accounting degree, worked in corporate consulting, and climbed the corporate ladder. This was the path I was taught to follow, and I never questioned it. Until I did. I always knew I wanted “more for myself” but I ignored all the signs of discontent, and became increasingly lost, confused, and unsure of my “purpose.”
In search of discovering my life’s work, I took risks and experimented. Each time I stepped out of my comfort zone, I unlocked a new version of myself, only to be confronted with new fears and doubts. This is a natural progression of growth, but instead of pushing past my fears, I became consumed with analyzing them. I became obsessed with personal development, learning new techniques, studying the mind, but I had a hard time committing to doing the work. I would rather talk about the work than actually do the work.
It wasn’t until I found hypnotherapy that I realized how quickly and effectively change could happen. When I found hypnosis, I immediately knew it was the work I was mean to pursue. I always heard the expression “when you know, you know” but always questioned if undeniable certainty existed. But on my first day of hypnotherapy school, I knew. I discovered my life’s work.
It was through my career that I discovered myself. By taking bold action to figure out my life’s work, I stepped into more powerful versions of myself. Now, I am dedicated to helping people tap into their potential as they discover and embrace their life’s work.
My philosophy:
Growth is not about eliminating fears - it’s about moving through them. Getting to the other side does not need to be an uphill battle. It does not need to take years of analyzing WHY you have a fear. Understanding the WHY will not help you change them. When you learn WHAT fears (stories) exist, the change can happen instantaneously….if you know how to communicate with your mind.
Core beliefs:
Your external reality mirrors your internal world. If you’re not getting the results you want, it’s because some internal story is blocking it from coming through.
Action is the key to growth. It’s through doing, experimenting and failing that we gain clarity and grow. If you’re hesitating to take action, there is some internal story holding you back. What’s the story and how can you get your mind to accept a new one?
The only person that can answer any question about what you’re doing or why…. is you. Your subconscious mind holds every answer to any question you have.
Growth doesn’t have an endpoint - we’re always evolving.
