We had the good fortune of connecting with Brenda Soto and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Brenda, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
I have a degree in Human Services and that is where my career started over 20 years ago. I soon realized that through a conventional approach to Human Services my clients were never going to achieve the changes in their lives they were looking for. I started practicing Hypnosis therapy 5 years ago as a way to unlock the true potential in my clients. When somebody walks into my practice I see them for what they could be, I see their potential. My approach is to not just help people overcome their personal limitations, my goal is to help them evolve into a new being.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
I have been working with clients for the past five years, my goal is to help people become the fearless, happy and courageous being they know in their hearts they deserve to be. What sets my practice apart from other therapist is that during my sessions we don’t look to fix symptoms. We work together to discover the root of the symptom, regardless of the age when the event happened, and sometimes, through our discovery process, we learn the event happened in a past life. In addition, my work provides instant relief and clarity to my clients, therefore the process of change happens almost effortlessly.  What I am most proud of is to get phone calls from past clients who call me to let me know how different their lives are now, compared to when they first sat on my chair for their session. I have even worked with some women who were struggling with pregnancy, I now have over 10 “Hypnobabies”. This is what brings joy to my life

My biggest battle has been to re-empower my clients, after traditional therapy has stripped them for so many years of the knowledge that they hold the keys to their own healing.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
My favorite place to go eat, relax and have some of the most amazing conversations with great minds is a wonderful restaurant called Ghini’s French Caffe. Their food and environment takes you to another place far away where time just flies by. My favorite hiking place is Sombrero peak. It is very private, quiet and peaceful place to find your inner peace and listen to your mind and ideas.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I would like to give a huge shoutout to my family for supporting me through this journey of discovery and growth. My journey would not be the same without the guidance and mentorship of Marisa Peer, who truly transformed my life through her work. The book that has guided me through my practice is The Untethered Soul, by Michael A. Singer. This book has given me a great understanding of the roles of the mind and the body as it pertains to therapy and personal growth.
