Hello. I’m Elena Anfimova.
My journey has spanned boardrooms and inner realms.
I’ve worked in high finance — hedge funds, international financial institutions, global M&A, and innovation consulting — while walking a parallel path as a healer and hypnotherapist.
These callings are not separate; they are two wings of the same purpose.
After graduating from Wharton (University of Pennsylvania) in 2004, I spent eight years in the hedge fund world, then two years at IFC, the World Bank's investing arm, before transitioning into consulting across innovation and global transactions. Through it all, healing has been not just an interest, but a lifeline.
The Awakening
In 2007, after a heartbreak that shattered me, I turned inward. A colleague handed me Many Lives, Many Masters by Brian Weiss. In it, someone was healed through past-life regression — therapy had failed them. Stricken with grief, I booked a session immediately.
To my surprise (and relief), the regression was visceral and real. I saw a past life in which I'd disowned love. The catharsis cracked open a part of me I didn’t realize was missing. I felt more whole. That shift gave me the strength to begin healing the heartbreak.
That experience ignited a devotion to hypnotherapy work. Over the years I experimented with energy healing, shamanic practices, plant medicine, and breath work, but hypnotherapy remained my touchstone: accessible, profound, deeply transformative. I still do weekly sessions - unless traveling - for myself.
For about five years I healed friends quietly, hiding a part of me as if it were not compatible with my finance identity. Then, in February 2020, my brother died suddenly — an early COVID complication. I was incapacitated: grief shut down the business part of me. But I could support others through regression. In helping others heal, I healed myself.
When I declared publicly that I was stepping into this work, the depth of my sessions deepened too — they became more potent, more aligned, more sacred. It wasn’t ego or performance; it was resonance. The Universe seemed to nod.
A Shift in Measure
I used to believe only multimillion-dollar deals moved the needle. Only big wins counted. But now, my metric of impact has changed. The transformation in one person’s inner landscape is sacred. A restored relationship, a healed pattern, a soul remembered — that is worth entire universes.
I still remember that day in finance when the fund gained 2.5% in a single trading day — nearly $200 million. I joined in celebration. But inside… nothing. It felt hollow.
Today, when someone writes to me: “That session was magical.” “Something shifted.” “My life changed.” — those messages fill me to overflowing. To be entrusted with your inner journey is a gift I treasure and cherish.
Thank you for trusting me with your inner wisdom. Every soul is sacred. I am honored.
With love,
Elena
