Social Anxiety Solutions - Your Journey To Social Confidence!

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.

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.

In this episode... We share a replay of a live EFT tapping coaching session with James, where we focus on easing the fear of judgment—one of the most common struggles for those dealing with social anxiety. You'll hear how anticipatory anxiety showed up for James before the session, how self-judgment and the belief of "I'm not good enough" made social situations feel unsafe, and how physical tension and emotional discomfort were part of his experience. Together, we explore these feelings, clear resistance to change, and use tapping to reduce the intensity of these emotions. By the end of the session, James felt calmer, lighter, and gained new insights into what was really fueling his anxiety.
