Karen knew what she wanted. She wanted to get out there more, to be more visible. And she had great ideas. She had wonderful offers, some social media posts to get out, some videos she wanted to make. But she wasn't following through on them. And it wasn't because she was somehow lazy or unclear or undisciplined. Instead, it was something unseen that was getting in the way. So in this episode, we go looking and we uncover a fear that's quietly running the show that goes all the way back to when she was eight years old. Then we do what we do. We tapped. We released it with tapping and a bit of time travel, a montage, and a mental scene where she's standing in front of an audience of raving fans. It's a lot of fun! You'll also get to meet Karen's cat, which was my assistant today. Pets are wonderful. Whenever they notice their person is getting upset, they'll jump right in front of the camera for attention to get their person to feel better. It's amazing, and it's unerring. Watch and see that happen in this episode. If you've ever wondered why you know what to do and you're still not doing it, watch this episode. You might find some ideas of what's going on below the surface to help you change it. I'm Nancy Linnerooth. This is EFT Breakthroughs. Let's tap. About Karen Karen Richter is the founder of Confident by Nature, where she guides midlife women who look “fine” on the outside—but feel quietly unfulfilled on the inside—back to a deep sense of aliveness. After spending 25 years in corporate America, and later experiencing burnout and grief that took a toll on her health, Karen found her way back to herself through time in nature—her long-time “happy place.” What began as personal healing became a calling. Karen is a Certified Nature & Forest Therapy Guide, Yoga Nidra facilitator, and gentle movement practitioner. Her work blends nature immersion, deep rest, and simple embodied practices to help women slow down, listen inward, and reconnect with their true nature—without fixing, forcing, or striving. Through retreats, nature immersions, and small-group experiences, Karen creates welcoming, grounded spaces where women can release the pressure of who they think they should be and remember who they already are. She believes nature is one of life’s greatest teachers—and is passionate about guiding others to listen, learn, and transform through its wisdom.

Here’s the short version. EFT, often called Tapping, is a simple but powerful technique that uses gentle tapping on specific acupressure points to calm your nervous system and create rapid shifts in the brain. (Yes, the science backs this up: cortisol levels drop, the amygdala downregulates, and you feel safer.) People around the world use EFT for everything from emotional healing and chronic pain to confidence, performance, and big goals. Here on EFT Breakthroughs we use Tapping a little differently. We go after the rules, beliefs, and fears running quietly in your subconscious—so taking action feels easier, cleaner, and faster.
