Today we’d like to introduce you to David Charlton.
Hi David, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
My journey started in the U.S. Navy, where I served as a Hospital Corpsman. That experience gave me a deep respect for medicine, but it also opened my eyes to the limitations of purely clinical approaches when it came to true healing. Years later, I faced my own health challenges, including a spontaneous healing from colon cancer through breathwork, intention, and releasing old anger. That moment became a turning point—it showed me that the body and mind have an innate ability to heal when we tap into the right energy and inner resources.
From there, I dove into the world of energy work, becoming a Reiki Master and a practitioner of Cellular Resonance Quantum Healing. I expanded into Clinical Hypnotherapy and Neuro-Linguistic Programing, where I discovered the incredible power of the subconscious mind to rewire old patterns and unlock human potential. I’ve since combined these modalities into a unique approach I call sovereign soul alignment—helping people clear trauma, release limiting beliefs, and step into their highest truth.
Today, my work is about transformation on every level—mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual. I guide people to become energetically clean, sovereign, and fully aligned with their authentic self. It’s been a journey of turning my deepest struggles into my greatest service, and that’s what continues to inspire me.
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
It hasn’t been a smooth road at all—though I’ve come to see that the struggles were actually my greatest teachers. I’ve faced serious health challenges, including a battle with cancer that I was able to heal from spontaneously through breathwork, intention, and releasing deep-rooted anger. I’ve carried the weight of childhood conditioning that left me feeling like I wasn’t good enough, which later showed up as self-doubt and self-sabotage. More recently, walking through the end of a 22-year marriage forced me to confront my fears of being alone, financial insecurity, and the vulnerability of starting over.
At times, it felt overwhelming, but each struggle pushed me deeper into the work I now share with others. I had to learn to release old stories, reprogram my subconscious, and align with my sovereign truth. Those experiences gave me compassion, depth, and the ability to sit with others in their pain without judgment. So, while the road has been anything but smooth, every challenge has been a steppingstone that shaped me into the healer and guide I am today.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
My work is all about guiding people through deep transformation. I specialize as a Master Practitioner of Neuro-Linguistic Programming, Master Hypnotherapist, Master TIME Techniques Practitioner, and a Quantum Healer and Intuitive Reiki Master. These modalities allow me to work with both the subconscious mind and the energetic body, helping people release trauma, reprogram limiting beliefs, and reconnect with their innate ability to heal and create.
I’m known for helping people not just make surface-level changes, but truly transform their lives into a manifestation of their wildest dreams—whether that means freedom from old patterns, greater health, or stepping fully into their authentic purpose.
What sets me apart is that I’ve lived this transformation myself. I experienced a miraculous, spontaneous healing from colon cancer without medical intervention, through breathwork, conscious intention, and releasing deeply held emotions. That experience gave me firsthand knowledge of the body’s ability to regenerate and the soul’s power to guide healing.
What I’m most proud of are my achievements in the healing arts and, even more, my remembrance of why I’m here—my soul purpose and path. This isn’t just a career for me; it’s a calling. Every client I work with is another reflection of that truth.
What are your plans for the future?
My vision for the future is to expand the ways I serve. I’m in the process of growing my offerings to include group hypnotherapy sessions, virtual Zoom programs, and large transformational healing events—locally, nationally, and eventually internationally. I see these gatherings as powerful opportunities for people to come together in community, release old limitations, and activate their highest potential.
On a personal level, my next step is to complete my NLP Trainers Training Certification in April 2026. That will allow me not only to deepen my mastery, but also to train and certify others who feel called to this work. I’m excited about creating ripple effects of transformation that go far beyond myself—empowering others to carry this work forward in their own unique ways.
