Hear me out on this one—when I told my therapist I was “done with plans,” she didn’t laugh. She just smiled and said, “Happiness isn’t about what you do. It’s about who you are.” And honestly? That line cracked me up. Because here I was, a Virgo moon who once thought success meant a spreadsheet of goals, a calendar of deadlines, and a LinkedIn profile that screamed “I’m crushing it.” But after a breakup, a job change, and a two-year digital nomad trip, I realized my whole life had been a hustle to chase a version of happiness that didn’t exist.
It started with a “tower moment” in tarot—symbolizing collapse and rebirth. My world literally crumbled: a breakup, a move, a career pivot. Instead of rebuilding the same way, I packed my bags and hit the road. I spent years bouncing between Central America, Southeast Asia, and Europe, but one place kept calling me back: Santa Teresa, Costa Rica. It’s like a dream you can’t Google. No hotels, just palm trees, rose quartz sand, and a vibe so chill it feels like it’s been plucked from a book. That’s where I met Cristina Kalyani, the hypnotherapist who’s worked with Gwyneth, Gisele, and the Olsen twins. She’s the reason I finally stopped trying to “do” happiness and started being it.
Cristina’s sessions are wild. She’s a mix of yoga teacher, shaman, and hypnotherapist, trained by the OGs like Dr. Brian Weiss and Sandra Ingerman. During my first session, she guided me into a meditative state where my soul showed me two contrasting scenes: one of control (my old life) and one of surrender (my new path). I didn’t realize it until later, but my subconscious was screaming, “You don’t need to plan your way to joy. You need to listen to your heart.”
The real magic? Sound healing. She uses instruments tuned to 432Hz—drums, flutes, gongs—to connect with nature’s energy. I remember floating as a stream in the jungle, butterflies dancing overhead, and finally letting myself feel vulnerable. As a Scorpio, I hate looking weak, but that session taught me: vulnerability isn’t a flaw. It’s strength.
💫 And if you’re feeling stuck, maybe a hypnotherapist (or a digital nomad trip) is just what you need.
So what’s the takeaway? Ditch the spreadsheets. Let your soul guide you. And if you’re feeling stuck, maybe a hypnotherapist (or a digital nomad trip) is just what you need.
