Everyone wants to unlock the mysteries of the mind in order to improve ourselves. So we throw ourselves into hours and hours of self-reflection meditation, breath work, drugs, or whatever you're into. But what if there was a way to tap into your absolute potential without having to spend years in quiet contemplation?

Our next guest knows exactly how to do that. And he's going to share that secret with us.

"You've got the conscious mind and the subconscious mind. And between those two elements of your mind is a built in firewall. Its called the critical faculty. I liken the critical faculty to the bouncer outside of a nightclub, who's in charge of the red velvet rope who determines who gets in and who doesn't get in. With hypnosis, you're distracting the critical faculty. You're distracting that part of your mind, the bouncer with a red velvet rope. So when that element of your mind is not paying attention, you can sneak in suggestions to your subconscious mind" --John Moyer

About our Guest: John Moyer is a professional hypnotist and YouTube Creator of hypnosis and meditation content for his 230K subscribers. His journey began as a producer screenwriter of several independent films, and spending 25 years as a professional stand up comedian. Feeling like his life had hit a wall, especially personally, with a divorce, being a single dad, stuck in a loop of bad relationships and struggling financially, John realized something needed to change. That something wasn’t just his outside world, John knew it was everything inside of him.

That’s when he discovered the power and ability of the mind, through meditation and hypnosis.

John trained in the art of stage hypnosis, retired from stand up comedy, and everything took off, with a radical shift for the better. He began performing his hypnosis show across the United States for colleges, universities and high end corporate events. He was also invited to perform around the world as a headlining entertainer for Royal Caribbean Cruise Line.

The changes were particularly reflected in John's personal life. An ongoing practice of mediation and self-hypnosis rewired his thinking for the better. Gone were the all the limiting beliefs and behaviors that held him back.

That’s when John had the idea to combine his film and video production skills with his experience of hypnosis. He created a YouTube Channel, offering up content to help other people tap into the power of their mind as well. In just three years after launching, John received YouTube’s Silver Play Button Award for hitting 100K subscribers. He doubled those subscribers less than one year later.
