In this episode of Can We Start Over, Lindsey Akey sits down with hypnotherapist and healing practitioner Leo Max to explore his journey of personal growth, emotional healing, and self-discovery.

From the fast-paced energy of New York to the transformative and raw atmosphere of Bali, Leo shares his experiences navigating relocation, friendship dynamics, and the challenges of maintaining authenticity in different world settings.

They dive into the complexities of being a healing practitioner in ever-changing environments, the lessons learned from people-pleasing tendencies, and the importance of creating a supportive space for emotional processing.

Leo reflects on his time in Amsterdam, where he found a sense of flow and energy. Through dance, therapy, and other grounding practices, he has learned to integrate lightness and freedom into his journey.

Join Lindsey and Leo for an insightful conversation on navigating cultural shifts, setting boundaries, and embracing authenticity in healing and relationships.
