Podcast Overview

Elephant & Kiwi is a podcast about the nervous system, hypnosis, and emotional patterns – and why so many of us keep functioning even when we feel something very different inside. I share trauma‑sensitive insights on stress, overwhelm, emotional reactions, self‑trust, and somatic awareness. For women who seem strong on the outside but feel that something needs to change. Here you’ll understand why you react the way you do and how real change becomes possible. www.elephantandkiwi.com Topics: nervous system, stress, emotional patterns, hypnosis, self‑trust

017 - Interview with Kristina Wischnowsky (Yoga to Transform) Subconscious Patterns, Inner Child & Ancestral Healing

What happens when a deeply driven, successful woman finally stops managing her story – and lets her subconscious show her what's really underneath it?In this episode, I talk with Kristina Wischnowsky, founder of Yoga to Transform and a personal trainer and Ayurveda wellness coach who works with women over 35 ready to reconnect with their bodies. Kristina and I have known each other for years – she was my yoga teacher long before we became something more unusual: collaboration partners in a hypnosis-for-personal-training swap.We talk about her own path from burnout and chronic fatigue into yoga, and later into personal training and Ayurveda. But the heart of this conversation is what she discovered after a year and a half of regular hypnosis sessions – including a lifelong belief she didn't even know she was carrying: "There's something wrong with me."This episode covers:– What Kristina expected hypnosis to be – stage shows, "going under" – versus what it actually felt like: lucid, conscious, and deeply surprising– How subconscious patterns and inner child beliefs can quietly run a person's business, relationships, and self-worth without them realizing it– The moment a single session dissolved a core belief about not fitting in – and what self-abandonment looked like underneath her high-functioning, driven exterior– Why ancestral healing and inherited family patterns came up in her sessions, and how Ayurveda also speaks to digesting the stories of the generations before us– What it means to surrender control and let the subconscious lead, instead of staying stuck "rehashing" the same conscious storyKristina's own words: "I think it's a really deep form of therapy – incredibly transformational. I'm surprised at where we go."I'm Eva, hypnosis coach, and I support women in moving from functioning to feeling – back to themselves, with more ease and less inner resistance.🧘‍♀️ Yoga to Transform → <a href="https://www.yogatotransform.com/">www.yogatotransform.com</a>🌿 Yin & Pin Live ( where we first met) → <a href="https://www.yogatotransform.com/yin-and-pin-live">yogatotransform.com/yin-and-pin-live</a>📱 Follow Kristina → https://www.instagram.com/yogatotransformhttps://www.facebook.com/yogatotransform🎥 YouTube → https://www.youtube.com/@yogatotransform5843🎙️ Her podcast → <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/0wdqGV04ACn1Z3LAOVPF1z?si=kftVlgO6RVSzqUyYVjmmaA">Spotify Link</a>#SubconsciousHealing #InnerChild #AncestralHealing #TraumaPatterns #EmotionalResilience #SelfAbandonment #NervousSystem #HighFunctioningAnxiety #HypnosisCoach #YogaToTransform #WomenSupportingWomen #MentalHealth #PersonalTransformation

016 - You Take Care of Everyone – Except Yourself | Self-Love, Self-Abandonment & Emotional Resilience

You function. You care. You manage.And somewhere along the way, you stopped making the list yourself.In this episode I talk about self-love – not the bubble bath version, but the real one. The kind that's missing when your inner critic is louder than anything else. The kind that's missing when you knew you wanted to say no – and said yes anyway.Self-love is often confused with selfishness. It isn't. It's also not self-sacrifice. It sits right in between – and for many women, it's the missing foundation underneath everything else.This episode covers:– What self-love actually is – and what it definitely is not– How a lack of self-love shows up in daily life: the inner critic, self-abandonment, people pleasing, high-functioning exhaustion– Why our nervous system often experiences self-love as unsafe– The Best Friend Test – a simple tool you can use right now– How emotional patterns and early experiences shape our inner relationship with ourselves– The role of the subconscious, stress response and nervous system in lasting self-worth– And why the treasure isn't gone – just buriedSelf-love isn't a destination you arrive at once. It's a path – and sometimes it helps to have someone walk it with you.I'm Eva, hypnosis coach, and I support women in moving from functioning to feeling – back to themselves, with more ease and less inner resistance.📺 Follow me on YouTube → https://www.youtube.com/@elephantandkiwi📖 Read the full article on Substack → https://elephantandkiwi.substack.com/p/you-take-care-of-everyone-except?r=7p3jgq📩 Book a free discovery call → https://zcal.co/elephantandkiwi/20min#SelfLove #SelfAbandonment #EmotionalResilience #NervousSystem #EmotionalPatterns #Overwhelm #Exhaustion #InnerCritic #PeoplePleasing #HighFunctioningAnxiety #Subconscious #InnerChild #SomaticHealing #HypnosisCoach #MentalHealth

015 - Your Brain Is Not Your Enemy – Neuroplasticity, Emotional Patterns & the Subconscious

Your brain is not working against you. It's working with outdated information.Every emotional pattern that keeps coming back. Every reaction that arrives faster than your conscious mind. The exhaustion that has settled in so deeply it feels normal. The self-abandonment so familiar you barely notice it anymore.It all makes sense – once you understand how the subconscious actually works.In this episode I talk about neuroplasticity and what it really means for you. Namely this: change is always possible. Not through willpower, not through more discipline – but by working where emotional patterns are actually stored.I hear this again and again from women who come to me: "I know I have the pattern – I just can't get out of it." That's exactly what this episode is about.We talk about:– Neuroplasticity and why "that's just how I am" is not the truth– How your brain stores solutions – and why it can be so stubborn about them– The role of beliefs, nervous system responses and the subconscious– Why feelings are the real key to lasting change– And how hypnosis works directly with automatic patternsWhether it's perfectionism, people-pleasing, self-abandonment or the feeling of running permanently on autopilot – the underlying structure is often the same. And it can change.I'm Eva, hypnosis coach, and I support women in moving from functioning to feeling – back to themselves, with more ease and less inner resistance.📺 This episode is also available on YouTube → https://youtu.be/GMgTkCy2ekw📖 Read the full article on Substack → https://elephantandkiwi.substack.com/📩 Book a discovery call → https://zcal.co/elephantandkiwi/20min
