How a Near-Total Loss of Vision Led Clay Moffat to Help Others Rebuild Self-Trust
In this episode of The Jeff Robertson Show, Jeff sits down with Clay Moffat, performance coach, Navy veteran, and author of The Trust Trap. Clay shares his powerful story of going legally blind in one eye and nearly losing the other, which sparked an urgent journey to document his life’s work in just 21 days.
What began as a self-protection mechanism, learning the language of influence and persuasion eventually led Clay to deep self-awareness. Through NLP, hypnosis, and radical ownership of his past choices, Clay realized that people aren’t broken. They’re just running programs they never chose.
In this raw, high-impact conversation, Jeff and Clay dive into:
- How victimhood disguises itself in ambition
- The trap of trusting outdated stories and assumptions
- How NLP and hypnosis helped Clay, and now his clients reprogram identity
- Parenting, education, and what “home” means for a nomadic family
- Clay’s take on why The Trust Trap matters to every leader
If you’ve ever questioned your path, negotiated with red flags, or wondered why the same patterns keep showing up in your life, this is an episode you can’t afford to miss.
