We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Hollywood Hypnotist Kevin Stone a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Hollywood Hypnotist, looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. We’d love to hear about how you went about setting up your own practice and if you have any advice for professionals who might be considering starting their own?
A Passion for Hypnosis: I have always been fascinated by hypnosis. I decided to follow my dreams and enrolled at The Hypnosis Motivation Institute (HMI), the only accredited college of hypnosis. I have become a world-renowned expert and earned degrees as a Master Hypnotist and Certified Hypnotherapist. I later became a Board-Certified Hypnotherapist.
Success in Hypnotherapy and Entertainment:
After graduating from HMI, I started two successful companies: Mind Growth Technologies™, which focuses on clinical hypnosis, and Deep Sleep Entertainment™, which brings hypnosis to the entertainment world. I am not only known as the “Hollywood Hypnotist™” but also as the “Master of Suggestion™.” I combine my clinical expertise with my teaching skills to create a modern and entertaining hypnosis stage show.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.
A Show Like No Other The shows are filled with comedy, special effects, music, costumes, and props. I ensure that the audience is fully engaged and even invite volunteers to participate on stage. At the end of each show, the volunteers receive a special gift: A Perfected Mini Hypnotherapy Session™, personalized suggestions to improve their lives. The shows have helped people quit smoking, overcome habits, and make positive changes all over the world.
Recognized for Excellence
My talent and creativity have been acknowledged by Entertainment Today, which describes me as “creative, flexible, mesmerizing, and very funny.” The Los Angeles Times has praised me for my unique and unforgettable audience participation programs. Companies like Walt Disney Co., Warner Bros., and Six Flags Magic Mountain have sought me out for their corporate events and theme park attractions.
Motivational Speaker and Keynote Presenter
In addition to the hypnosis shows, I am a highly sought-after motivational speaker. I offer seminars on weight loss, smoking cessation, stress reduction, and other topics. I conduct workshops and training programs for major companies worldwide, teaching personal empowerment, communication skills, and management techniques. The workshops are not only educational but also fun-filled and entertaining.
Self-Help Audio Programs
I have also created self-help audio programs for those who want to improve their personal lives. These programs include full hypnosis sessions that provide the same benefits as a private hypnotherapy session. Some of the current titles include Lose Weight Now!, Stop Smoking Now!, and Achieve Success Now!
If you could go back, would you choose the same profession, specialty, etc.?
Definitely! Let me tell you why.
Everything Happens for a Reason
I truly believe that everything in life happens for a reason. Even if there were challenges or setbacks along the way, they have all played a part in shaping who I am today. So, I am grateful for every experience, good or bad, because they have led me to where I am now.
Developing My Gifts
We all have unique talents and gifts, but sometimes it takes time to discover and develop them. By sticking to my chosen profession, I have been able to nurture my skills and become better at what I do. It’s like practicing a sport or playing an instrument – the more you do it, the more you improve.
Counting My Blessings
I am incredibly thankful for all the blessings in my life. Choosing the same profession again means I get to continue doing what I love and enjoy. It brings me fulfillment and happiness, and not everyone can say that about their job. So, I consider myself lucky to be on this path.
Building Success
Sticking with my profession has also helped me succeed. By gaining experience and knowledge in my field, I have become better at what I do. Each step I take, every challenge I face, contribute to my growth and progress. So, choosing the same profession again is like building a solid foundation for my future success.
How’d you build such a strong reputation within your market?
Putting Clients First!
Why Money Isn’t Everything!
Being a successful Hypnotherapist Practitioner goes beyond just having the right training and knowledge. While it’s important to be able to meet financial obligations, what truly matters is putting clients first. Instead of solely focusing on making money, I believe it is crucial to prioritize listening to, working with, and helping clients achieve their goals.
Understanding Client Needs:
In my practice, people seek hypnotherapy for various reasons. Some want deep relaxation, stress relief, or to improve their focus and sleep. These goals are significant, and I take them seriously. By understanding my clients’ needs, I can work hard to provide the support and guidance they require.
