Squash Your Despair, Gain Hope, and Accept Yourself Despite Social Anxiety

In this episode... 😣 You've tried therapy, affirmations, exposure, and still feel stuck with social anxiety. What if the real problem isn't you, but something hidden running in the background? I speak with Lindsay Kenny, one of the 29 EFT Founding Masters and a pioneer in emotional healing. She introduces the concept of subconscious resistance, a quiet but powerful block that prevents lasting change, even when you're doing all the right things. You'll hear stories of transformation, discover how this hidden resistance works, and learn a simple tapping routine to start letting it go. 🎧 You'll learn: 🔹 What subconscious resistance is and how it fuels social anxiety 🔹 Why your brain sees socializing as dangerous, and how to shift that response 🔹 How EFT tapping helps calm your nervous system and build emotional safety 🔹 A guided tapping exercise to reduce inner resistance 🔹 Why forcing yourself to face your fears often backfires, and what works better instead 🧠 "If you haven't been able to overcome your problem, you have a subconscious resistance to change."

Do you panic at the thought of blushing in public? That rising heat in your chest… the burning in your ears… the shame of knowing people see it? I used to live in fear of that exact moment. In this episode... I share my personal story of dealing with chronic, uncontrollable blushing in social situations, where it started, how it became tied to my social anxiety, and what I tried (unsuccessfully) for years to stop it. Eventually, I discovered a way to release the shame, the fear, and the obsessive thoughts. It wasn't willpower. It wasn't exposure therapy. It was acceptance, combined with a powerful technique called EFT tapping. You'll learn: Why blushing becomes an obsession and what fuels it How past experiences create emotional triggers in the body Why most solutions don't work (and what finally did) How I released the deep self-judgment and stopped caring… and then, the blushing stopped too What I now use with my clients to help them overcome blushing and social anxiety for good This is a vulnerable, honest episode that can shift how you see yourself and give you hope that change is possible. 👉 Want to start your own journey to social confidence?
