S3 EP4: Rapid Transformational Therapy and the Subconscious Mind I Vanessa Mearns
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Midlife is often the moment when old patterns, beliefs, and coping mechanisms stop working — not because something is wrong with you, but because your subconscious is ready for change.
In this episode of The Midlife Awakening, host Odilia Judith speaks with Vanessa Mearns, a Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) practitioner and holistic therapist, about how subconscious beliefs shape our confidence, sense of safety, relationships, and how we experience our bodies in midlife.
Vanessa explains how RTT works by accessing the subconscious mind — where long-held patterns are formed — allowing real, embodied change rather than surface-level insight. This conversation explores why midlife can be such a powerful gateway for transformation and how rewiring the subconscious creates shifts that feel natural, not forced.
Odilia also shares her personal experience of RTT and the unexpected changes she noticed afterward, including increased confidence, feeling safer in her body, greater peace in family relationships, and physical shifts that came without trying to “fix” anything.
