Episode Details

How much of your stress — and your success — is being driven by your subconscious, not your strategy? In this Business Insider Roundtable conversation, host Lisa Begley sits down with Scott Rust, a certified clinical hypnotherapist and coach, to demystify hypnotherapy and explore how subconscious patterns shape performance, rest, identity, and long-term success.

Scott breaks down what a real session looks like (and what Hollywood gets wrong), why high performers often avoid slowing down, and how lasting habit change happens at the identity level. You’ll also hear practical frameworks you can apply immediately — including why “Someday” goals stay stuck, why maintenance isn’t progress, and Scott’s standout metaphor for building change: “Lay new track.”
