THE TRAILING SPOUSE –
HILDE (28)
THE SCENARIO:
Hilde was an optician in Norway, and moved to Singapore
six months ago for her husband’s career in banking.
Her professional qualifications are not accepted here.
Deprived of her own career, she feels completely lost as
to what to do next.
THE COUNSELLOR:
Transformative and transcendental coach NANCY
HO, who is also a clinical hypnotherapist, offers an all-
encompassing physical, mental, emotional and spiritual
approach.
What options are open to Hilde?
Many options are swirling around her head. Should she
redo her medical degree? (That would take years!) Should
she retrain for a different career? (What would that be?)
Should she write a novel? (She’s always wanted to…)
Should she join a club and perfect her tennis? (That
wouldn’t help pay the rent, though.) Should she start a
family? The options are endless, but it’s up to Hilde to
decide her own path.
Do you think hypnotherapy might help?
For someone who feels confused or stuck and unable to
move on, hypnosis might help to uncover or recover any
rooted subconscious events that may be causing their
present inertia or confusion. It can also help to identify
any self-limiting beliefs, which can then be addressed
accordingly. The most important issue here is to help you
to feel good about yourself and have positive thoughts that
enable you to move on, regardless of the choice you make.
Would life-coaching be a useful approach for
someone in Hilde’s position?
I have spent 25 years using and teaching a system that
produces an immediate rise in the confidence, clarity and
effectiveness of people just like Hilde. I have no doubt that
coaching would help her to clear her thinking and decide
on a path forward. Importantly, it would teach her how to
rise above obsessive thinking patterns and to stay in the
“now”. Feelings of helplessness, uncertainty and stress do
not come from outside factors: they generally come from
our unconsciously obsessive thinking, and awakening to
this truth empowers us to live our lives to the full.
