We were lucky to catch up with Kelly Tallaksen recently and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Kelly, thank you so much for opening up with us about some important, but sometimes personal topics. One that really matters to us is overcoming Imposter Syndrome because we’ve seen how so many people are held back in life because of this and so we’d really appreciate hearing about how you overcame Imposter Syndrome.
Although many times I have felt that people do not hear my message because it’s the same old rhetoric they hear from other leaders in my field, I bring myself back to my divine purpose and realize that my message is strong, valuable, and always delivered with my inner truth and unrelenting passion for my work. For many years, I have lived with so many negative memories flooding my body that have kept me trapped in years of feeling unworthy with no understanding of how I could free myself from the emotional torment. The profound healing process I went through has not only changed my life but has led me to a very rewarding career where I help others see their true value no matter what their childhood experiences taught them. I have received many verbal and written positive testimonials from my clients that caused me to keep following my passion for helping people heal their deepest emotional wounds. My desire to help others was not created from reading self-help books or completing college courses but from my wounded heart and the courage to look within me and see the innocent and lovable child I am inside this grown-up body. This allowed me to do my work from a place of experience, love, and compassion, so I can hold the space for my clients to experience their inner truth and heal their souls on the deepest level.
Appreciate the insights and wisdom. Before we dig deeper and ask you about the skills that matter and more, maybe you can tell our readers about yourself?
I am a board-certified hypnotist specializing in transpersonal healing with a Doctorate Degree in Metaphysical Hypnosis and a PhD in holistic life counseling. I work with clients while they are in an altered state of consciousness so they can experience a higher level of self-awareness, which leads them back to their true selves. This allows my clients to see their true value without the influence of the fears that live in the mental mind. To heal on a deeper level, it’s important to guide the clients into a space where they can hold self-love and self-compassion. With my training in holistic psychology, parts therapy, and spiritual healing, I help people heal using a specific psycho-spiritual technique while they are in a higher state of consciousness to bridge the gap between their mental mind and spiritual essence. This technique gives the client an opportunity to heal the inner conflicts that cause them to question their worth.
I am a public speaker and the author of three books: “Healing Our Unhealed Parts”, “The Voiceless Soul”, and “How to Break the Barriers to Self-Love.” I have 13 published articles about human consciousness and the soul that are available on the internet.
I am most excited to share that I am the co-producer of an upcoming short animated film called “The Voice of Spirit,” about understanding and healing generational trauma. My mission is to help create more awareness on the issue of unhealed generational trauma and how we can all do our part in diminishing this global problem of emotional disharmony by healing ourselves on a deeper level so we do not unconsciously pass our unhealed trauma onto others.
If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?
The three most important areas of knowledge are internal wisdom, thoroughly researched information, and life experience. When these three qualities are shared in one’s unique way, a true leader is born. When you tap into your inner mind through meditation or other spiritual practices, you receive information from your higher self that is distinctive and special for your life’s journey. The information that flows from the higher mind is that of one’s internal divine intelligence and can provide strong insight and direction to help one lean into one’s true nature.
When someone conducts thorough research on the topic they are drawn to, they gain different perspectives and can then share from their internal wisdom and experience which perspectives fit into their message so they can back up their message with solid academic research and current discoveries.
The most important knowledge comes from life experiences. When someone can share their own life experiences and include them in their message, it allows for a more personal message that people can relate to.
One of our goals is to help like-minded folks with similar goals connect and so before we go we want to ask if you are looking to partner or collab with others – and if so, what would make the ideal collaborator or partner?
I love to collaborate with others, as we all possess our own unique and valuable skills, wisdom, knowledge, and experience. My field is emotional well-being, and I would love to work with anyone in the natural healing industry who supports mind, body, and spiritual health.
I am a hypnosis instructor for the National Guild of Hypnotists (NGH) teaching basic and advanced hypnosis courses. The NGH is a large organization committed to continued education and a deeper understanding of the healing power of hypnosis. I am also the president of the Long Island chapter of the National Guild and run monthly meetings for the members. Anyone who takes my courses may join the Long Island chapter and participate in our fun and educational meetings.
I believe that the more we collaborate with others in our realm of work, the stronger our message becomes. People with good intentions who want to help people heal on any level are an asset to the healing industry. I would welcome anyone interested in bringing together more healers to collectively serve those in need, as we know in our hearts that this is our mission.
