I have found that sometimes overweight clients ask me if i have i ever been over weight and because i am thin they wonder if i can relate to their problem.
It doesn't happen often but sometimes. I tell them I can relate because I have had my distracters, they just weren't food. A good segway for SLF.
Hello Lydia - Thanks for your comment. Sorry I have been late to respond. I might also let them know that in the professions, i.e., medicine, psychology and hypnotism one does not have to have had the problem to help others with it. Doctors don't need to have had a brain tumor to be a great brain surgeon. Psychologists don't need to have overcome mental illness to help those who have a mental illness, and hypnotists don't need to have been overweight to help others become slimmer and healthier!
I love the idea of incentives for referrals. In my opinion, no marketing effort comes close to raving reviews from a trusted source. For that reason, I believe in supporting and rewarding those who refer new clients to me.
