Testimonial - Accelerated Growth

“I am a firm believer that receiving hypnosis from Rachel totally transformed my business. I began feeling fearless and completely ready, I have since won contracts with multiple clients and secured business that has increased my income by 350%. I have also grown from a team of 1 to a team of 8 and we continue to grow"

Testimonial - Confidence to Succeed

“My hypnosis sessions with Rachel are a valuable experience for my personal wellbeing and professional growth. After discussing my challenges & goals with me, Rachel tailors each session to my individual requests and for my optimal benefit. She is equally skilled in listening and providing sessions that are effective in contributing to my success as an entrepreneur and as a small business owner. Because of my sessions with Rachel, my confidence in marketing my business has increased and has become an easier task for me. I have also overcome my fear of public speaking which has enabled me to give presentations to various groups and host workshops for many wonderful clients. My client base has quickly grown as a result. I attribute these positive changes to my hypnosis sessions with Rachel which helped me release blocks that I was not previously aware I had”

Testimonial - Jump Start

"I lost my job at the height of the COVID pandemic. While I had always thought about starting my own business my confidence in my abilities to do so were shot. Rachel gave me my confidence back and then some. Going through sessions with her I not only regained my confidence but I felt energized and excited to hang up my own shingle. Without her boost I likely would have taken any job that came along and my career would have continued in a downward spiral. Two years later and I've grown my own firm into a million dollar business and I am so much happier being my own boss. I couldn't have done it without her. It was worth every penny!"

Testimonial - Business Boost

"I just completed my second year in business and my income grew by 140%. I know that the confidence I gained through my hypnosis sessions with Rachel are to be credited for this growth. Along with the confidence I also improved my focus, able to schedule time for each task and complete each task ahead of schedule has been amazing for my self-esteem and my business"

Join us for the 10th Anniversary of Independent Bookstore Day!

Independent Bookstore Day is a one-day national party that takes place at indie bookstores across the country. Independent bookstores are not just stores, they’re community centers and local anchors run by passionate readers. They are entire universes of ideas that contain the possibility of real serendipity. They are lively performance spaces and quiet places where aimless perusal is a day well spent.

In a world of tweets and algorithms and pageless digital downloads, bookstores are not a dying anachronism. With your continued support, they are living, breathing organisms that continue to grow and expand. THANK YOU for shopping local!
