Check out PEIBWA’s Q&A with Robin MacLeod of Ocean Hypnosis
PEIBWA: What is the inspiration behind your business?
Robin: For many years I had searched for a career where I could help people in some way to overcome obstacles in their lives and improve their life experience. I have always been interested in how our minds work and became interested in therapeutic hypnosis after learning about it in a psychology course I was taking. The more I learned, the more interested I became; so much so that I undertook formal training in therapeutic hypnosis and started my own hypnosis clinic, Ocean Hypnosis. I made the leap to change careers, and seeing my clients having positive experiences with hypnosis confirms that I made the right decision.
PEIBWA: What is your favourite thing about being an entrepreneur?
Robin: I was an entrepreneur for many years prior to starting Ocean Hypnosis, but it was in a career field that was stressful and unfulfilling. I have also worked in the corporate world, and the security of a regular paycheque, etc., was a big plus. But that also comes with many trade-offs that are often quite negative. So, there are pros and cons to both that each individual must weigh out for their situation.
For me, at this stage in my career, I could no longer spend the rest of my life dreading getting up each day to do something I didn’t want to do. As an entrepreneur, there is definitely a risk to starting and growing a business, and that is hard to avoid. Your business is also on your mind ALL THE TIME and days off are few and far between. However, on the plus side, as an entrepreneur you get to see your ideas come to life and the thrill that comes with that is immeasurable. You are working towards reaching your own goals and aren’t just a small piece of a corporation’s goals. Even though I still have moments of panic, I can’t imagine doing anything else than spending my days helping people through therapeutic hypnosis.
PEIBWA: What is the most exciting part of what you do?
Robin: The most exciting part of what I do is seeing the difference in my client’s energy and outlook from when they arrive for a session to when they leave. The positive change is so rewarding to witness.
PEIBWA: Now's the chance for some self promotion, anything you would like to let our members and followers know?
Robin: I offer a free 30 minute screening session to anyone interested in my hypnosis services, where I explain the hypnosis process, answer questions, discuss options, etc.
In addition, for PEIBWA members, I offer a 5% discount on sessions.
