Adam presents a hypnosis session for people pleasing and boundaries, built around the metaphor of a golden retriever that grows from an over-eager, too-vulnerable puppy into a discerning adult dog that is still warm but chooses when to reveal its belly. Originally created for a client with this exact dog memory, the session guides listeners into a relaxed golf-course scene, introduces the discerning retriever, and has them meet the part of themselves that craves connection and overshares. It walks through rehearsing calm, confident responses to past situations where boundaries were crossed, uproots the belief that being good guarantees good treatment, and replaces it with the idea that you get what you tolerate. The session closes with suggestions to stay friendly but let trust build gradually through observed behaviour.


In this session:

  • Discerning golden retriever metaphor
  • You get what you tolerate
  • When people show you who they are, believe them
  • Belly rub as metaphor for earned vulnerability
