027: Patient Turned Practitioner: How Holly Higgins Created the Practice She Needed 

Are you showing up as your most authentic self? It can be hard to fully embrace your uniqueness, share your ideas confidently, and create a business that is an authentic representation of who you really are. Uncommon practice owners know that it can be tough to step outside of convention to follow their own path and create a practice on their own terms.

In this episode, I was joined by Holly Higgins. Holly has worked through her own inner struggles, which lead her down a path from patient to practitioner. She walks us through this journey and how it fueled her passion for her work today. 

You’ll hear about Holly’s personal evolution, her background in nutrition and hypnotherapy, why you need to make it a daily practice to be authentically you, how to embrace your unconventional spirit, and what she currently offers in her practice.

What you’ll find in this episode:

  • How Holly got into the work she does now

  • The breakthrough she had when she changed her nutritional diet

  • How her own story brought her to this work

  • Why she didn’t want to pursue a traditional education path

  • Her research on the subconscious mind and how she got into hypnotherapy

  • The gift of physical healing

  • What she helps her clients with inside her practice

  • Her own mindset struggles of getting started with her practice

  • The practice of being authentically you

  • How social media has tainted relationships
