We were lucky to catch up with Samantha Rosenbaum recently and have shared our conversation below.
Alright, Samantha thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. We’d love to hear about the best boss, mentor, or leader you’ve ever worked with.
I had the privilege of working with a remarkable leader named Carla Jakubovic, she was the Director of Guest Relations at The Ritz-Carlton and has forever left a positive mark on my journey. Carla understood the impact that creating unforgettable experiences could have on the human spirit. She saw beyond the realm of transactions, recognizing the potential to awaken a sense of wonder and delight in each guest’s heart. Her approach was not just about meeting expectations, it was about surpassing them and infusing them with moments of embodiment and magic. Under Carla’s guidance, I learned how to tap into the subtle energies of magic and mystique, weaving them into the energy of each interaction that I had. She imparted the belief that every touchpoint, no matter how seemingly insignificant, had the potential to leave an everlasting impression. She encouraged us to cultivate a new sense of awareness and intuition and truly see and understand the desires and needs of each guest so that we operated in attunement with them. It was a dance of intuition and empathy, guided by the energy of the universal flow. Carla taught me that the art of creating magical moments would allow the happiness of those guests to permeate and spread into the world far beyond the walls of The Ritz-Carlton. She nurtured within me the importance of infusing my own life with a sense of wonderment and curiosity, recognizing that to radiate joy and happiness, I must first embody it myself. She reminded me that each day held the potential for miracles and by embracing the mindset of gratitude and creativity, I could unlock the doorway to these extraordinary possibilities. Carla’s perspective helped to infuse my job with a sense of purpose, helping me to see that I was always an agent of transformation, a catalyst for awakening the surprise and delight present in each moment. Her wisdom continues to inspire me as I journey on my own path as a hypnotherapist, reminding me that there is a transformational power always ready to be ignited.

My lifelong journey on the path of enlightenment has been shaped through a series of twists and turns all leading me to now. I graduated from The University of Florida with a degree in Hospitality and Tourism. Immersing myself in the hospitality industry gave me an opportunity to get to know all different types of people and helped me to understand life and travel from a lens of the journey. It is that mindset that brought me to Maui, Hawaii, where I lived and explored the incredible islands and their ability to wow me into a constant state of presence, appreciation, and flow. After living in Hawaii for a few years I ventured back to Florida and began working with a new vibration, the power of music, which continues to offer healing and guidance in my life. Soon thereafter came a certain point in my life that I began searching for direction and a sense of greater purpose. It was then that I began to go inward to discover more. I utilized hypnotherapy, a tool that had helped me tremendously, to support me once more. As I began to shift and elevate my life through the power of my own creative forces. I decided to embark on a new journey. I would provide a safe place and help others tap into their own innate wisdom and power through hypnosis and coaching. What sets me apart from others is that I too walk this path and there is nothing that I would ever ask someone to do that I have not done myself. I am continuously doing my own self-exploration to provide even more of an elevated and expanded experience of myself in service of others. I am here to show you what it looks like when you stand in your light, ignite your own inner healer, and embrace the human experience. I offer a place for you to explore your inner landscape with trust and presence, knowing that you are not alone on this journey, I am here walking beside you.

Other than training/knowledge, what do you think is most helpful for succeeding in your field?
I believe that aside from training and knowledge, the most important aspect to my success lies in my own personal growth and inner exploration. The ability I have to guide and facilitate transformation in others is directly connected to the depth of my own journey. By continually seeking self-improvement and expanding my own levels of consciousness and understanding, I can cultivate a deeper understanding of myself and the human experience. This self-awareness then allows me to connect more authentically to others and create a safe space for their healing. Going inward is an important aspect of this growth. It involves time for self-reflection, introspection, and cultivating regular spiritual practice. I can’t expect others to do what I am not doing myself. Through practices such as meditation, journaling, and mindfulness, I develop a deeper connection to my own inner wisdom, intuition, and higher self. This connection becomes the basis for which I draw guidance and insight when working with clients. As the saying goes, “you can only take people as far as you have gone.” By delving into my own subconscious patterns, limiting beliefs, and emotions, I know the transformational process on a deeper level. I meet clients where they are at and guide them through their own inner landscape with compassion and authenticity. Another aspect that is important is the ability to trust the process. As a hypnotherapist, I am here to support others on a journey of deep transformation and healing. It is important that I trust the innate wisdom and resilience of each person as it allows for organic and profound shifts to occur. This means surrendering to the flow of each session, allowing the clients subconscious to guide the way, and having the faith that people can draw on their own inner resources when given the right support and space to do so.
Are there any books, videos or other content that you feel have meaningfully impacted your thinking?
There have been numerous resources that have significantly impacted my management and entrepreneurial thinking. One book that stands out is “Mind is the Builder; Your Life is the Result: Powerful Concepts from the Edgar Cayce Philosophy.” Edgar Cayce is an American mystic and healer who offered profound insights into the powers of the mind and its influence on our lives. These teachings have supported me to cultivate a positive mindset, aligning thoughts with intentions and leveraging the power of visualization and affirmations. By consciously directing my thoughts and focusing on desired outcomes, I can see that through the power of my mind I can create my reality and manifest success in my professional endeavors. Cayce’s emphasis on the mind-body connection has also greatly influenced my approach as a hypnotherapist and spiritual life coach. By highlighting my own underlying beliefs and patterns which could have the potential to limit my success, I am able to hone in on new unlimited understandings and resources. This allows me to cultivate a business that aligns with clients that resonate with this same frequency. The idea of utilizing the mind in its full capacity has helped me to enrich my understanding of the role I can play in my own life, building a business that is successful, helpful, transformative, and serves a greater purpose for all of life. This has deepened my trust as I continue to expand and flow with the connection between the mind and the physical. It propels me on my journey forward to help others by supporting them to call into existence whatever it is they desire in their life to come to fruition.
