ABOUT
The Awakend Trader

Meet Me

Hi, I’m Alex Heslop. I currently live between Bristol and the small coastal village of Sandgate in Kent.
 

I started out both career and money driven. I owned a number of successful hospitality businesses and managed teams of people, but even with the external success I never felt genuinely happy. I stepped away from that world to pursue trading because I wanted more passion, freedom and autonomy.


While on my own personal development journey, I began to notice how the challenges I was facing in myself were showing up clearly in my trading results. I spent years trying to find lasting change through traditional psychology, RTT and hypnosis, spiritual work, meditation, retreats, books, podcasts and self-help. It often felt like I was looping around the same issues.

EFFECTIVE CHANGE

What eventually made the difference was qualifying in both ThetaHealing® and NLP. I was drawn to them because of their direct, practical and rapid effect. After years of talking or papering over the cracks, I found these methods could create a noticeable shift in how I felt and responded — often quickly. They offered a useful mix of functionality and deeper work, and as they integrated I started to see shifts in other areas of my life as well. I was able to work through my own impostor syndrome, fear of public speaking, and showing my true self.


Seeing how effectively NLP could shift emotional patterns, as well as phobias, fears and anxiety, has become a big part of why I do this work. This led me to create both the Phobia Release sessions and the Emotionless Trading package.


Today I continue to trade my own algorithms and manual strategies. Creating TheAwakenedTrader has given me the time and freedom to help others create the same kind of emotional shifts I needed myself.
