One of Marianne Williamson's most cited quotes starts “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.”
It is quoted so often because of how deeply it resonates, speaking directly to the contradiction that is part of our lived human experience.
On one hand we want to live an authentic and rich life…on the other hand, our subconscious mind just wants us to be safe.
This desire to be safe keeps us small because if we are small, then we aren't seen, and if we aren't seen, then we are safe.
This week in the podcast, we explore the three biggest subconscious fears that keep us small and we do lots of tapping to clear those resistances.

Letting ourselves down is one of the deepest betrayals that we humans can experience.
The words change and improve are very close in meaning.
Not all stress is created equal.
One of the most consistent struggles my clients have is coming up with the “right” words.
Grief is unlike other emotions when it comes to tapping.
We often refer to tapping for stress and feeling overwhelmed as emotional first aid. That is because we are applying a tool for quick relief in the moment in the same way we would use first aid for a physical injury.
A number of years ago I was visiting my friend “Mike” and his family.
There is a huge difference between bouncing back from being tired and being exhausted.
One of the hardest parts of being a caring person is witnessing others in pain.
There is this moment in every tapper's life when we move from “This tapping thing is amazing” to “Oh my goodness there are soooooo many issues for me to tap on. Every time I clear one issue I find four more!”
Over the years, so many of my clients and students have told me that two of the biggest obstacles preventing them from sitting down to tap are having too many issues so that they don't know where to start, and the fear that their emotions will be too big to handle when tapping.
Even though we might not be conscious of it, every time we sit down to tap, our desire is for total, instantaneous, eternal transformation.
Sometimes tapping feels nothing short of magical!
One of the fundamentals I repeatedly return to when I am working with clients or teaching practitioners is: We emotionally respond to the world in the way that we describe it.
For the longest time, I found tapping for feeling overwhelmed one of my most frustrating issues.
The dawning of a new year is a great time for reflection and planning. We have the chance to see what we would like to release, what we would like to change, and what we would like to add to our lives.
