Hi, I’m Holly!

I’m here to help you become the version of you that exists inside your head.

No, not the asshole in your brain who constantly tells you you’re not capable.

I’m talking about the other version: where you’re fully living up to your potential. You’re speaking and sharing unapologetically. You’re going after what you want, regardless of what other people think.

Here’s the thing: that version of you is real. Our work is to peel away all the layers that keep you from being who you really are.

Layers like imposter syndrome, doubt, people pleasing, “but it’s always been this way!,” and anything that keeps you shrinking and hiding the truth of who you are.

That’s healing. Moving from self-repression to self-expression. 

This has been my journey, and it’s my honor to walk beside you on yours.

My Professional + Personal Background

I’m technically a hypnotherapist and coach, but I’ve given myself a very long job title that I much prefer: unstuck-ologist, professional permission slip writer, throat-chakra-unblocker, word wizard, and limiting belief surgeon.

Thank God no one really uses business cards anymore, because I’d have to write that in teeny-tiny font.

After overcoming 10 different diagnosed “mood disorders” using food as medicine, I started my healing career as a functional nutritionist, emphasizing a holistic approach to mental health challenges. 

Little did I know, that was just the beginning. I went on to: 

• Maintain a 70-pound weight loss
• Leave my corporate job and transition to successful self-employment
• Move through deep emotional trauma and reclaim my personal power
• Quit drinking and embrace an alcohol-free lifestyle
• Pay off over $100K of debt, and become completely debt-free
• Move several states away to a place I really wanted to live

Over the course of a few years, I realized I wasn’t just passionate about food and nutrition. I was a straight-up transformation junkie.

All of these changes may seem completely different, but they’re not. The common thread is that they all required me to come face-to-face with deeply held beliefs about myself, like: 

• I’m not one of those “health nut” type people
• I had a horrible past, and the pain will never go away
• I can’t be social without a drink
• Money and numbers are hard, and my brain doesn’t work that way
• Corporate work is “safe,” and I want to be safe
• It’s not possible to live where I want — I don’t deserve that

90 percent of change is about looking at the thoughts in your head and calling BS. 10 percent is strategy and doing.

When I realized that healing is primarily a mind game, I became deeply interested in the subconscious mind. That’s what led me to hypnotherapy.

You know those “fast track” passes at amusement parks, that let you get on rides quicker? Hypnotherapy is the fast track for releasing limiting beliefs and creating new ones. When you create new beliefs about yourself, you create a new life for yourself.

These days, I use a unique combination of hypnotherapy, coaching, and energy work to help my clients get on the fast track to change.

In addition to my work with clients, I host a top-rated podcast called Mindspeak, where I share lessons from the healing journey, and an endless amount of puns.

I’m an avid hiker and nature lover, and I live on a 10-acre homestead in Knoxville, Tennessee, with my husband, Sean. We raise animals, grow our own food, and create the world that we want to see.

How to Work with Me

I work with unconventional, creative people who are ready to make big changes in their lives. Many (though not all!) of my clients are holistic practitioners themselves, looking to step into their next layer of healing, expansion, and growth.
