There’s a quote from Sex and the City that still lives rent-free in my head—and maybe yours too.
Samantha Jones, in one of her most iconic moments, says: “I love you… but I love me more.”
It’s bold. It’s honest. And it perfectly captures the struggle so many of us face: how to put yourself first without feeling guilty.
This isn’t just about relationships. It’s about work, family, friendships, and how we show up in our daily lives. For many women, loving yourself more can feel uncomfortable, as if you’re doing something wrong.
But you’re not. And if that guilt still lingers, I want you to know:
That’s something you can change.
Hypnosis can help.
Why Putting Yourself First Feels So Hard
We’re raised to be kind, helpful, and accommodating. And somewhere along the line, those qualities quietly turned into people-pleasing, overgiving, and always putting others ahead of ourselves.
Even when we know we’re stretched too thin, we still say yes.
We tell ourselves we’re fine, even when we’re running on empty.
And when we finally try to set a boundary? The guilt comes rushing in.
Sound familiar?
If you’ve ever felt like loving yourself more means letting others down, you’re not alone. This is exactly where hypnosis can shift things.
How Hypnosis Helps You Put Yourself First (Without the Guilt Trip)
The guilt you feel when you try to choose yourself? That’s not your fault.
It’s deep-rooted programming—messages you picked up from childhood, culture, or past experiences.
Hypnosis helps you work with the subconscious mind—the part of you that’s been running on autopilot with outdated stories like:
- “I’m only valuable if I’m useful to others.”
- “If I say no, I’m being selfish.”
- “It’s not safe to speak up for what I need.”
Using hypnosis, we can gently quiet the noise and replace those beliefs with something that supports you.
- Imagine being able to say “no” without the guilt.
- Imagine trusting that it’s okay to take up space.
- Imagine feeling good about prioritizing yourself.
That’s not a fantasy. That’s what we work on in sessions.
Self-Love Isn’t Selfish—It’s a Boundary
When Samantha Jones said “I love me more,” she wasn’t being selfish—she was being clear.
She knew that choosing herself wasn’t about rejecting others. It was about finally including herself in the equation.
You’re allowed to do the same.
And if your inner voice pushes back with guilt or self-doubt, that’s where the real work begins—not with willpower, but with rewiring.
Hypnosis makes that possible. Gently. Powerfully. And from the inside out.

And by the way…
I know a lot of people aren’t fans of And Just Like That—and sure, it’s not perfect—but I still think it’s a fun show. Flaws and all, I’m here for the fashion, the friendship, and the nostalgia. That said… I really miss Samantha. I loved how she fully owned her life, her world, and who she was—unapologetically.
