The drive: What challenges have you overcome?
One of the major challenges I have overcome in my journey is managing the business aspect of my practice. While I have a deep passion for tapping and thoroughly enjoy sharing it with others, the organisational side of running a business presented hurdles for me. Initially, I underestimated the amount of work involved in managing administrative tasks as well as maintaining an active presence on social media.
To tackle this challenge, I implemented an efficient online booking system that streamlines the appointment scheduling process for clients. This not only saves time but also ensures a smooth booking experience after their initial free 15-minute consultation. Additionally, I have allocated dedicated time to plan social media posts, allowing me to maintain an engaging online presence while optimising my time.
By recognising the importance of efficient systems and implementing strategies to streamline administrative tasks, I have successfully overcome the challenges associated with managing the business side of my practice. This has allowed me to focus more on what I love, which is sharing the transformative power of tapping with others.
For better or worse: What are the pros and cons of running your own business?
In terms of pros, running my own business allows me to witness the incredible transformation in my clients’ lives. It brings immense satisfaction and fulfilment to see them thrive and live a life they never thought possible. For instance, numerous mothers seek my assistance when it comes to transitioning back to work after maternity leave. The process of returning to work and securing appropriate care for their infants presents a multitude of challenges, particularly for those lacking extensive familial support or for those who are breastfeeding. Through the utilisation of Emotional Freedom Techniques, I have had the privilege of providing invaluable support to numerous mothers, enabling them to navigate this journey with a sense of tranquillity and self-assurance.
Another example of transformation is with a client who had experienced a traumatic birth experience and was filled with anxiety about the upcoming birth of her second child. Through the use of EFT, I provided support to the mother-to-be in unpacking the emotional burden associated with her previous traumatic birth experience.
By addressing and releasing the emotional charge of the past event, she was able to approach her next birth with a newfound sense of emotional ease and confidence. Witnessing her transformation and the positive impact EFT had on her birth experience was incredibly rewarding.
I’ve also had the opportunity to work with a client, a wife and mother of three, who had lost her sense of self in motherhood. During our Discovery Session (client’s first session in their prepaid package), we set a goal for her to rediscover herself, starting with self-care. Through our work together, we addressed the barriers holding her back and set mini goals for her to a create a life she once deemed unimaginable. Now she has a stronger relationship with her husband and prioritises both self-care and family life balance.
It is through such experiences that I am reminded of the power of EFT to help individuals overcome past traumas and embrace new beginnings with resilience and hope.
As for cons, one challenge is that work can feel never ending, as there is always something that can be done. However, I have come to realise the importance of maintaining a healthy work-life balance. It is imperative to set boundaries and prioritise self-care to avoid burnout and ensure overall wellbeing.
Hopes and dreams: What next?
My hopes and dreams revolve around sharing the powerful tool of EFT with as many mothers and families as possible. I aspire to help them raise the emotional vibration within their families and break free from patterns that may be holding them back.
I firmly believe in the ripple effect EFT tapping can have. When parents are emotionally regulated and present with their children, it creates a positive impact that extends into the family unit.
Ultimately, my dream is to contribute to the creation of happier families by empowering parents with the transformative potential of EFT. By supporting parents in their emotional wellbeing, we can create a positive environment where children can thrive and grow. I am driven by the belief that a happy mum equals a happy family, and I am passionate about making this dream a reality for as many families as possible.
