TESTIMONIALS

Happy Students and Clients

Lieke V.

Herb is an incredible mentor with extraordinary skills and wisdom. Thanks to his classes and private sessions, I was able to build a business and work through the blockages and blind spots that were holding me back. The combination of easy-to-follow steps and dealing with the emotions along the way is a unique combination that made it possible to build my business. Now I can help others with work that I truly love!

Tom B.

I am beyond happy I enrolled in The Black Lotus. Herb is an incredible teacher and hypnotherapist. He gets straight to the point and helped me move through some huge blocks in ways that actually gave me results. His style, knowledge, and passion in this field is unmatched. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to up their game as a healer and start making consistent income each month from their passion.

Samantha R.

Private sessions with Herb truly changed my life. He helped me process new layers of emotions I wasn't even aware of. I am so grateful for the shifts that emerged from our work together. And the healer course was truly transformational. In the past, I never would have thought I could start a business. I was supported in ways that allowed me to be successful, while processing old blockages that had held me back. If you want an incredibly effective way to move forward in stepping into your power, logistically and emotionally, The Black Lotus is for you!

Laurel V.

The Black Lotus was exactly what I needed to take my coaching business to the next level. The emphasis on emotional processing while working through actionable tasks is what's been missing as I've struggled to build my practice over the past three years. Herb is kind yet firm as a mentor and has generously offered his wealth of experience to help me move through this process as easily as possible. I am grateful for his guidance and knowledge.

Liv H.

Doing this course and being mentored by Herb has changed my life. I've grown so much professionally and personally thanks to it. It was far from being easy, but it has tremendously helped me in finding my ideal clients, increasing my income, and creating a smart structure for my services. Herb's mentoring is honest, authentic, and always coming from a place of love.

Katie S.

Herb's course for healers was exactly what I needed. Having multiple failed businesses in my rear view had me a bit nervous to start another business, though I know I was meant to. Herb helped me work through these fears and insecurities, allowing me to fully step into my power. Now I have an amazing 5 week course (that I'm actually proud of). Thank you for your guidance and support, Herb!
