In this episode of The Tapping Solution Podcast, we're answering the question of "Who invented EFT Tapping?"

It’s a question we're asked all the time, and we love sharing the incredible story behind it!

It all started with an accidental discovery when a therapist had tried everything in the book to help a woman with a severe water phobia… without success.

Until, in a moment of inspiration, he tried something different…

In this episode of, you'll get the chance to listen to the full story (complete with real audio clips from the people involved) and find out what happened next. It’s a super fun, 5-minute audio journey where you’ll learn all about the evolution of how Tapping came to be. Sit back, enjoy, and get ready to be surprised and inspired!

For over three decades, Dr. Eric(Rick) Leskowitz has been at the forefront of integrative medicine, exploring the fascinating intersection between conventional Western medicine and energy-based healing approaches.

I was fortunate enough to sit down with Dr. Leskowitz for a one-on-one conversation about the evolution of energy medicine, including how techniques like EFT Tapping are transforming our understanding of what’s possible.

Our discussion covers everything from the historical resistance to energy-based therapies to his vision for a future where conventional and integrative approaches work hand in hand.

This is truly an interview you don’t want to miss!

In this Episode of The Tapping Solution Podcast we join the Iyanla Vanzant, star of the TV hit show, "Iyanla: Fix My Life" on the OWN network, for an interview conducted by Jessica Ortner. In this interview Iyanla shares how to purge toxic thoughts and emotions from your life so that you can create a life full of financial abundance, emotional happiness, fulfilling relationships and more...

Years before Iyanla became the star of her hit show "Iyanla: Fix My Life" she was stuck in patterns of toxic thoughts and emotions herself.

Coping with trauma from childhood abuse, punishing herself emotionally, struggling financially with a poverty consciousness, and so much more.

But she learned how to overcome those toxic thoughts and emotions, and create a life full of abundance, joy, and love.

Some of the things Iyanla will share with you in this interview include:

- How she started using Tapping to change her life nearly 16 years ago, and why she still loves this technique for creating personal change. (And why she always uses this technique with people on her show, even though it's not always shown!)

- Why it's important to increase your emotional library to be able to express and release stuck emotions.

- The power of love - Why she believes that there is no wound deep enough that love cannot heal, and how you can make the oftentimes difficult shift to finally loving and accepting yourself.

- How to overcome lack consciousness. Iyanla struggled with finances even when she was earning over a million dollars a year! She'll share why you need to shift your energy and beliefs around money in order to be able to create abundance, regardless of how much you're earning.

- And much more!

This is a heartfelt, laugh-out-loud video that I know you'll love.

In this Episode of The Tapping Solution Podcast we join the late Wayne Dyer for an interview conducted by Nick Ortner shortly before his passing. Wayne was an internationally renowned author and speaker in the fields of self-development and spiritual growth. Over the four decades of his career, he wrote more than 40 books, including 21 New York Times bestsellers.

In this interview, you’ll hear some of Wayne’s story and how at the age of 34 he drove to Biloxi, Mississippi to visit the grave of his father, an alcoholic and an abusive man who had abandoned him, his mother and two brothers when he was just an infant. Although his father had died 10 years earlier, Wayne had only just found out about his death.

He drove to the grave that day with a level of anger so great, so deep from years of built up hurt, that he had two tasks in mind: To find out if it was even acknowledged on his death certificate that Wayne was his son, and to literally "pee" on the grave of the father that he held all this hatred, anger and resentment towards for 34 years. What came out of that visit, however, completely and forever changed his life. It is one of the most beautiful stories you'll ever hear. It shares a message of forgiveness, and it's power to transform, that is truly life-changing.

All too often we feel pressure from the outside world, whether that be our family, friends, society, social media, or others about what we “should” be doing with our lives. But success looks different to each of us.

When YOU think about it, what does “success” mean to you? What does “being productive” look like to you?

If you’re not clear on what those look like for you, you’ll easily feel lost and susceptible to pressure from others about what you “should” be doing.

So in this episode we’ll be talking about how to define your productivity so that you can get more done in less time, with less stress in a way that allows you to be truly happy and fulfilled in your everyday life! And all while moving you towards a future that YOU choose!

Do you struggle with your self esteem and confidence at times (or all the time?!). Even if you believe you have good overall self esteem and confidence, it’s likely that in the areas that you want to grow, that you do not have as much as you’d like, and it’s holding you back.

That’s why in this episode I’ll be sharing 6 things you can do right now to build your self esteem and confidence! Better self confidence allows you to feel more comfortable in social situations, learn more easily, perform better physically, take more risks and feel safe doing it, and much more. It essentially allows you to access the higher resources of your brain so you can be your full self and feel safe doing so.

In this episode I’ll be covering:

• Why most information out there on this topic feels unrealistic, impractical and like an oversimplification of the struggles that can come with lacking self esteem.
• How to look at self esteem in a way that allows you to disconnect from it being who you are, so that you can change your brains wiring and build up confidence
• Why you need to tell yourself a better lie (you’ll see what I mean…)
• The story of the “Alex is Awesome” necklace that I gave to my sister! :)
• The 3 acknowledgements that will open you up to growing your belief in yourself
• The question you need to ask if you have a negative critical voice
• The common belief that people get wrong about building confidence that holds them back from taking action.
• How to retrain your brain to find the things you’re good at
• And of course it will all be brought together with a guided Tapping process that will raise your confidence and put you on the path to building real self esteem!
