WSH459 - James Hazlerig on Breaking Through

Ever feel like confidence is something elusive, always just out of reach, tied up in the stories you tell yourself?

This week, I brought James Hazelrigg back for a powerful look at identity, storytelling, and the real meaning of confidence in change work. From pirate-themed AC/DC covers to transformative sessions behind jail walls, James reveals why the most effective techniques are not always found in scripts, but in the way you adapt, connect, and embody the art of narrative. You will hear how story structure and intuition shape client breakthroughs, whether that means helping someone step free of old habits or redefining themselves completely.

James has spent years blending hypnotic language with performance, therapy, and even goat herding. His journey began with a literal birth into hypnosis and grew into a career changing lives, from anxiety sufferers to those ready to walk away from cigarettes for good. Along the way, his sense of identity and confidence has continually evolved, shaped by the stories he lived and told.

"Confidence comes from your identity, and identity is the story you tell yourself."

~James Hazelrigg
