  • Pattern-Interrupting Money Fears: Interview With Duff McDuffee (Practical NLP Podcast Episode 91)

    Pattern-Interrupting Money Fears: Interview With Duff McDuffee (Practical NLP Podcast Episode 91)
    May 8 2024
    In this episode of the Practical NLP Podcast I interview Duff McDuffee, one of the most thoughtful people in modern NLP. He specialises in helping creative and neurodivergent people who ‘think different’, as that classic Apple ad used to say. In our wide-ranging conversation we talk about: Duff's first introduction to NLP - as for many people, it was via Tony Robbins What it was like working for Ken Wilber What it was like working for Steve and Connirae Andreas (very different) The two 'paradigms' (or ways of seeing the world) A technique for reducing the pain of learning from your mistakes Reframing failure The importance of joy in motivation An easy 'pattern interrupt' process for loosening fears around money or getting yourself out of a stressful state ... and much more! This episode is sponsored by Duff's Transforming Money Fears Masterclass, that starts on 18 May 2024.In this live class on Zoom, you'll learn specific methods for transforming any fears you have around money. The goal is to go from feeling worried and stuck to feeling safe and optimistic!And when you feel good about money, you're more likely to try things that will bring in more money. This is especially helpful for those of us who are entrepreneurs, as we create our own fortunes. So hopefully this class will pay for itself!PLUS - book via my link and I'll send you the Collected Practical NLP Podcast Episodes 1-78!

    Dec 15 2022
    NLP has a number of ways to help people get over traumatic incidents. Let's delve into them to see how they work. Includes: How your brain 'pattern matches' your experience in real time to scan for danger Why talking about traumatic experiences isn't always the best way to put them behind you The vital structure/content distinction in NLP Three types of cognitive reframing Pavlov to the rescue!

  • Improve Your Performance With Self-Modelling: Interview With Margaret Nash

    Improve Your Performance With Self-Modelling: Interview With Margaret Nash
    Oct 3 2021
    https://youtu.be/6aYnXIGWpPk This is the video version - listen / subscribe to the podcast version below Andy Smith in conversation with NLP Trainer, coach and author Margaret Nash. Here are some of the things we talk about: Why smoking cessation or maybe weight loss is the thing to specialise in if you want to make money as a hypnotherapist, and helping people with deeper problems is probably a terrible business modelMy theory about how 'manifestation' actually works (when it does work)How to improve your performance and be your best self more often with self-modelling - three easy stepsThe crucial importance of exploring your 'recovery strategy' (if there's something you think you're not good at, maybe it's because you don't have one in that context!)Why 'Good job!' should be the start of the conversation when a team member does something you like, rather than then end as it so often is (hat tip to Marcus Buckingham here)'Uptime' and 'downtime' - and why you need to be in 'uptime' when you're talking with a client or presenting to an audienceThe importance of persistence (this reminded me of Carol Dweck's work on 'mindset')How Margaret 'found her Zen' as a coach, and some tips on how you can too, as described in her latest bookThe difference in approach between coaching and 'classic' NLP changework. Here's my take on the three steps of 'self-modelling', to improve your performance and be your best self more often: Think of something you do well. And really examine in detail what you're doing when you perform that skill - not just what you do and say, but what you're thinking about, what you're saying to yourself, how you're feeling, how you're standing, how you're breathing, what feedback you're looking for that tells you if you're doing well or badly - everything.In particular, what's your recovery strategy if you're knocked off track? (for example, if you're doing an important presentation and there's a technical failure on your PowerPoint)Now do the same thing with a skill you want to improve. Notice the differences between all these aspects of how you do this, your recovery strategy, etc, and the way you do the thing you're good at.Now map the qualities of the way you do the thing you're good at over to the thing you're not so good at. What happens if you start doing this thing with the same confidence, internal dialogue etc that you use with the thing you're good at? Then try it out! You can contact Margaret here: margaretnashcoach.com Margaret has written seven books on various aspects of personal development, managing the stages of your life, and coaching - you can find them at her Amazon author page.

  • The Only Advice You’ll Ever Need For Helping Clients Solve Their Problems – Practical NLP Podcast Episode 87

    The Only Advice You’ll Ever Need For Helping Clients Solve Their Problems – Practical NLP Podcast Episode 87
    Aug 20 2020
    https://youtu.be/4LEQl3Mu7jU A bit of a rant this week, inspired by the many, many posts I've seen on NLP forums from rookie NLP practitioners who ask what technique they should be using with a particular client problem. They're going about it all wrong, and their NLP trainers should have showed them the right way! Here's how to approach any client problem so you'll know what to do... (for SEO purposes I should probably mention that it's to do with strategy elicitation) You can find a transcript for this podcast, or pretty close anyway, here.
