The real reason you do Discovery Sessions….
I was asked to help someone who was having trouble with the money part of signing people up after her Discovery Sessions. I bet no one has ever taught you these things.
You go into Discovery Sessions thinking you’ll help the client, show her how good you are, give your best…but that’s not what a Discovery Session is all about!
I hear coaches say, “I get to the end of delivering a great Discovery Session and my clients-to-be ask about working more with me … and I don’t know what to say, and they don’t sign up!”
I’m going to show you how to do the Discovery Session correctly – I bet NO one taught you these 5 Steps the way I do! Yep, you probably already have your own style.
But if it ends up with people not signing up, I guess there’s still something to find out, isn’t there!
1. Go HERE for the unusual Discovery Session training that will change everything for you.
If you truly want to make more money helping people and making a difference, you need more clients! This will help you attract and sign them up.
Every person I’ve taught this to has told me it works like a dream! Good!
In the 60-minute audio (with accompanying 3-Part Cheat Sheet that includes my Exclusive Client Signup Script), I reveal to you the 5 highly critical elements you absolutely must include when you do a new-client inquiry, a strategy session or discovery session.
Do you think you do good Discovery Sessions … but at the end you don’t know what you’re doing? And you flub the money conversation? Go HERE for the unusual Discovery Session training that will change everything for you.
2. Here’s where to learn how to set up your services and your fees so your Discovery people will ask YOU about your programs and packages, and you will feel totally comfortable talking about them.
What would it be like to feel really great about your fees – so great you don’t mind talking about them?!?

I’ve been watching as my friend and good buddy Rehana Webster, who is a world-class expert at handling trauma she travels the world – lately to remote locations deep within the rugged mountains of Pakistan (see the photo below, where she navigates the rickety bridges over treacherous rivers!).
Rehana works with women who have had acid poured into their faces, who were raped, molested or abused, and even women who have been targeted to be killed in ‘honor’ killings.
Rehana uses her unique techniques for busting trauma to help them come back emotionally from such extreme trauma to reclaim their minds and emotions, and live better lives.
Why is this work so important?
Rehana told me that, in her experience, 90% of Pakistan’s population needs help with shock and trauma release. Imagine almost an entire country suffering shock and trauma. That’s serious business!
Have you ever noticed how someone who is upset can’t think straight until they get their nerves calmed down? There’s a very good reason for that. They’re in survival mode – Fight, Flight or Freeze.
We’re wired that way. Why? Because when you’re fleeing an enemy or attacker, what do you need to think about other than get safe, get safe, get safe? Our F-F-F mode kicks in so we can get to some kind of safety and survive even the most horrific experiences.
But once a person gets to a safe place where she can breathe a sign of relief, the strangest thing happens: sometimes (most times) she can’t unwind by herself. She keeps freaking out, or having flashbacks, terrible dreams, or repetitive visions of what happened.
She may not be able to ‘get present,’ or may experience a level of extreme watchfulness for danger called hyper-vigilance.
If you know any vets or women who have been brutally assaulted, or people who have gone through accidents, home invasion, domestic violence, rape, war experiences … you’ve seen trauma’s effects close at hand.
Talk therapy is pretty useless – the trauma settles into the very cells of the body, and you can’t talk it out. Energy therapies like TBT (Trauma Buster Technique), EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), etc. are the fastest way to eliminate the shock and trauma from the body.

or get it on Kindle here: Trauma Buster Technique: Effective, Safe, Rapid Treatment for Psychological Trauma
Have you ever had an experience of surprise, shock or trauma? It landed in your body, and is still there! Maybe you had years of teasing, or bullying, or neglect from your own parents, siblings or classmates.
You’ll want to listen in as Rehana and I discuss how to defuse trauma so you can get your mind, emotions and life back, and as she talks about her stripped-down, efficient-in-the-field version of EFT she calls the Trauma Buster Technique.
Click HERE or on the IDYR icon to the left to listen in to our shorty (30 minutes) interview.
Rehana Webster (Founder of TBT, EFT Master, NLP Master and AAMET Trainer of Trainers) used to work with the Correctional System in NZ, has trained over 200 doctors (!!!) in Pakistan to help their patients with TBT, and has been invited by very prestigious organizations like DOST Foundation and OXFAM to present workshops for the people they help in India and Pakistan.
All that sounds pretty formal, but she’s a kick-ass fun gal who loves to laugh as much as I do!
You can find her on Facebook, and at http://TraumaBusterTechnique.com.
Here’s the amazingly courageous Rehana Webster as she takes time off from trekking deep into the wild mountains of Pakistan to help women (and men!) in need.

Are you familiar with the power of EFT, the Emotional Freedom Techniques, to transform lives?
I’ve used EFT in my own life for all challenges so long now that it’s just simply a part of my life like breathing and eating. And I use it when I want to achieve new goals, because it helps expand my vision and energy.
Most importantly, though, I also use EFT, the Emotional Freedom Techniques, in almost every single one of my client sessions, teleclasses and group calls.
My guest today is a star of a man: Nick Ortner, tapping expert and one of the people who designed and put together “Try It On Everything,” a seminal film on EFT.
I invite you to listen to my interview with film-maker and EFT expert, Nick Ortner–just click HERE or on the logo to the left.
I invite you to check out the wonderful documentary film on DVD, “Try It On Everything.” You’ll see how to use EFT on yourself, and also for helping your un-EFT-savvy friends, family, acquaintances, clients and co-workers.
I invite you to check the movie out HERE.
Ten experimenters were filmed over a period of time at a retreat using EFT very successfully on their various ills and issues–most of them severe. The majority of the participants came out on the other end vastly improved–some with a complete remission of the pain that they had had for years. One woman, who used to have to wear a back brace, now goes completely without it. Pain-free, strong and flexible.
TIOE is an enlightening and exciting journey through a very clear intro to and experience of EFT. There’s even an update at the end of the movie where some of the people come back to share their success and what EFT has done for their lives.
If you’d like to introduce anyone to EFT so they can discover for themselves the benefits of using it, this is the perfect way to do it. You’re not pushing on them, and they get to view it and appreciate it on their own timing. It’s a perfect stocking stuffer. AND you’re helping spread the awareness.
And if you’re a practitioner, you can hand it out like a business card and watch new referrals come in day after day, as as have it for sale at your office. I was talking with EFT Master Dr. Patricia Carrington the other day, and she told me of one practitioner who was handing it out at networking meetings and people were calling her left and right–and that and as a result her practice is through the roof.
I invite you to check the movie out HERE. Here’s the cool thing: when you order today, you get the DVD–PLUS a ton of EFT bonuses to take your own experience to the next level.

When I first learned about and started using EFT, I had about fifteen bazillion questions–and no one to go to ask.
Later, when I became a proficient tapper, I still had questions; and I also wanted to contribute to others who wanted to know what I knew.
I wished for and dreamed of a place where I could find what I needed that was cheap, clear, rich, easy and attractive, even fun.
And I didn’t even have to work hard at it!
Nick and Jessica Ortner have gone beyond beyond in creating this high-quality, high-content site. They should be really proud of how what they have created.
I’m sure you’ve seen ads and emails about the Tapping Solution.
In case you have not, I’m just going to say this: it’s the most comprehensive site I’ve seen yet where you can get not just information but real support in both learning how to tap and getting tapping assistance, no matter the issue.
What are you waiting for?
I urge you to check this out and join right away to be able to get all the bennies they have to offer.
Why is inspiration so important to me?
Because when we are inspired, we do and be things we’d never think of in an uninspired state.
Because I love to see people light up when they feel connected to their deepest soul’s commitment.
Because if we all felt great the majority of time, we’d create one of the most incredible realities any of us could ever dream of.
Because it’s exciting! And when we are excited we feel good, and when we feel good we radiate that feel-good feeling out and out and out into the entire universe, spreading it out to everyone and everything.
Imagine if we all felt good all the time! Woo-hoo!
How do you get there? Change your limiting beliefs!

Stacey Vornbrock is well known as a highly successful Sports Performance Expert, who works with professional athletes to help them increase range of motion, reduce and heal from injuries and perform in top-notch form..
She has pioneered massively successful work with her specific, targeted injury recovery and high-performance tapping protocols using EFT, the Emotional Freedom Techniques for pro athletes.
Did you know that your emotions come across as actual chemicals in your body?
How do you unweave trauma and the pain, fear and chemicals from your system? How do you stop that flinch in your body when it’s afraid and anticipates more pain?
Listen in as she makes the underpinnings of the actual chemical make-up of trauma, pain and injury crystal clear.
I was fascinated to hear how she helps her sports pros recover quickly, even from jet lag, change in elevation, dehydration and location change (imagine being a pro sports person and having to fly from one game to the next all over the world – you’d be a jet lagged wreck!)!

Carol Tuttle started out with an EFT practice, marketing her services, books and products online. Now she helps people dress according to and aligned with their essential energy – it’s pretty cool.
I have to admit that when I first called her to see if she’d do an interview with me for my EFT-Biz-Success program I was really nervous.
I honestly thought she’d have the brusk, impatient manner of the typical corporate jerk who has made a lot of money and ‘who the hell are you.’
Shows you what I believed about people who were self-made millionaires! Had to tap on that one – ! I had wanted to interview her because I knew she had been highly financially successful as an EFT practitioner and wanted to hear how she did that.
I was so surprised to hear her casual, very sincere manner come radiating through the phone lines – when we hung up, I actually felt lifted up by her ability to embrace and radiate simplicity and sweetness!
Perhaps you’ll be as surprised as I was to hear how she places her number one value: connection with her spiritual beliefs – absolutely first, over everything else – and how she works with that to simplify and make her life and business richly rewarding. If you are an energy practitioner, this interview is especially for you.
I wanted to specifically find out how she made so much money with her EFT practice – and she lays it out clearly as to what made her so successful.
If you’ve wondered how to hold onto your spiritual values while you operate in the mundane world, listen carefully to how Carol does it – every day – aligning her business and activities with those values, adamantly sticking to her connection. You can do this, too!

I read this newsletter by a friend, Zoe Walton, who helps her clients with EFT and Matrix Reimprinting, and thought you’d appreciate it. So I’m reproducing it here for you. Pretty important stuff.
From this point on, it’s Zoe talking:
This is about “False negative emotions” and neurotransmitters. True negative emotions are genuine responses to challenges and difficulties that arise in our life.
They are feelings of loss, disappointment, abuse, shame, etc, arising from the past or present. We grow from feeling and dealing with these types of emotions and situations. They are a natural response to life.
‘False emotions,’ a term coined by one of my teachers, Julia Ross, are caused by an imbalance of brain chemicals called neurotransmitters. You might be tipped off that you are feeling false emotions because:
A neurotransmitter is a chemical messenger in the brain that carries, boosts, and modulates signals across gaps or synapses of brain cells and between other cells in the body. Most neurotransmitters are made from protein or its subunits, amino acids. Serotonin, Dopamine and GABA are neurotransmitters that are essential for a positive, calm, happy outlook and a sense of well-being.
When Neurotransmitters are out of balance (or when receptors on cells responsible for receiving neurotransmitter signals are impaired) they have a significant impact on our mood and behavior.
When we are deficient in specific neurotransmitters a number of emotional symptoms are likely:
Brain cells need three things to survive and be healthy:
If you are deficient in a particular neurotransmitter you will experience very specific emotions, sleep patterns and cravings. You can increase the amount of a particular neurotransmitter in your brain by taking some amino acid supplements. I have been doing this work with clients for 6 years with great success.
If you suspect you might be feeling false emotions due to imbalanced brain chemicals, my recommendation is to start with the following suggestions prior to embarking on a specific amino acid protocol.
Here are some reasons, and I am sure there are more, why you may be experiencing an imbalance of neurotransmitters:
Wishing you all a wonderful Holiday Season –
Zoe

Today the tables are turned!
I was interviewed by Success Coach Kate Beeders on her Success with Kate Radio Show this weekend. Find Kate here: successcoachingwithKate.com.
It was such fun – Kate’s a good interviewer. You’ll hear all about passion, creativity…how I first decided never to be bored and always be as passionate and alive as possible…and my renegade EFT ideas that say don’t neutralize that energy!
I also fill you in on why I believe my tapping books are the best around; my how-to-get-out-of-being-broke money books, and lots more.
HERE’s where to get Part One, and HERE’s where to get Part 2.
Kate Beeders, Business Success Coach, uses MTT/EFT and LOA tools to get her clients out of the mud and into success. Listen in as she tells us about the hell-trip she transformed into “I can do anything I want!”
Kate shares with us what she does to increase her success; a couple of new business tips; and how the revelation “that I really could change my thoughts” has completely changed her life.
You’ll be inspired to hear how she left “safe corporate America” to live the life she chose, and how she is creating her independence; why climbing Le Gros Piton in St. Lucia was such a pivotal experience for her; and what she will be doing in the next 12 months – it’s NOT your “regular” goal!
Kate helps people eliminate whatever obstacles are blocking their success. The powerful technique she uses is a Meridian Tapping Techniques (MTT/EFT). Kate combines the Law of Attraction with tapping to get optimum results.
Her radio show, “Tapping to Success with Kate,” can be heard on 1120 AM (in Boston) and also can be heard/seen live over the internet. Kate’s show can also be heard on Energy Talk Radio in San Francisco and Spirit Bond Radio in the UK. She has articles published on emofree.com and selfgrowth.com.
I invite you to check out her website: SuccesscoachingwithKate.com, and you can either click on the logo to the left or CLICK HERE to listen to this week’s Daring Dreamers Showcase with guest Kate Beeders (approx 25 min).
Annabel Fisher is the founder of AAMET (Association of the Advancement of Energy Techniques). I want you to see how her courage and determination helped her continue on through a terrible illness to come out the other side and create a world-wide organization that helps thousands of people become emotionally free.
In today’s chaotic world, her story serves to remind us that we really can persevere and triumph.
Click on the icon to the left to listen in on our interview as we talk about how she and I both used EFT (tapping) to relieve ourselves of very intense, chronic conditions that we feared would be with us for the rest of our lives.
Take careful note of what she did to help herself, and how at first it seemed like it backfired on her!
She had been diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and was very painfully going about her life feeling ill, exhausted and in a wheelchair. I suffered from suicidal depression. We were both filled with anger, fear and resentment–and ended up clearing it all.
OK, you’ve heard of people using tapping to get rid of illnesses, depression and pain before, but I bet you didn’t know that, for a while, tapping felt like it was making things worse for us both!
I had been tapping for 4 or 5 weeks (this was 2002, when I was an Artist-in-Residence living in New Zealand), and I thought I was the only one this seemingly backwards experience happened to, and felt very discouraged. Find out why that happened to us, and what our answers were–hers in the UK, mine halfway across the world in NZ.
You’ll also find out about why she started AAMET in Canada, where else it is now available, what her trainings are like and who else she recommends for those of you who want to become top-notch practitioners.
If you are attracted to becoming an EFT practitioner, please know that there are very good training and certifications available other than Gary Craig’s.
These workshops and programs help you get hands-on training with other live students, so you not only increase your knowledge and understanding of tapping, but also your ability to work one-on-one with other, real human beings. This is training you won’t get sitting there watching DVDs.
I highly recommend Annabel’s trainings.
She is the Creator of The Healing Game Process, and is the leading authority on using this process to reclaim vibrant health and true authenticity. She is the host of the radio show, The Healing Game.
Annabel Fisher has worked with thousands of chronically ill clients from around the world since 2004. Her journey with this work began when she healed a chronic health condition of her own, in which she was wheelchair-bound. As a result of her work in the field of chronic illness, Annabel wrote the book, The Healing Game: Transforming Chronic Illness Using EFT

I told you I’d share with you the electrical tapping that helped me start me feeling like I was getting somewhere on the road to recovery from the time I became so ill after breathing paint fumes. (Oh, by the way, the gold paint pen I was using is by KRYLON. Avoid it like crazy, and especially keep it away from your kids!)
I was lying in bed, drifting in and out, feeling like a puzzle someone had thrown on the floor in little pieces. I felt as if I had no internal structure–my bones felt shattered, and the cohesiveness of the connective unions of brain synapses, muscles, tendons and everything felt broken. It was truly weird–like I was a toy about to be put together.
So I just laid there and visualized a kind of map, like my body’s original blueprint. You know those books you see overlays of transparent pages with muscle, fascia and bone and organs? It was like that. And I imagined that there were little energy threads connecting everything. Read more to find out what I said as I tapped, and to see a tapping chart.Read More
A couple of weeks ago, I was amazed that about 80% of the people I worked with were dealing with various shades of “I can’t.”
Here are some of the beliefs people had:
I can’t because if I do I’ll lose my family.
I can’t because I don’t have the money.
I can’t because I might succeed.
If I do I’ll be ridiculed within the scientific community.
I can’t because I’ll make so much money the government or someone will take it way.
Thing, is, once you get at the underlying messages all these fears carry, you’ll have the courage, skill and knowledge to laugh and do what you choose.
Here’s an example….
“Joe” said, “My family wants me to stay in my job as a house-painter because it has a steady salary. I hate it, and I know I can be successful running a landscaping business.
“I’m good at it, but I just don’t have the credit to ask for a loan, and I can’t afford to buy the equipment I need. I’m afraid my family will think I’m nuts, that I’m endangering them, and I’ll never hear the end of it from my father-in-law if I fail.”
I asked him how big his fear of failure was on a scale of 1 to 10. “20!” he said. “It makes my knees weak to think of my wife screaming at me and my kids being disappointed in me.”
And how big was his fear of asking the bank or someone in his family for a loan. Off the charts. “I know they don’t think my ideas are worth anything.”
And his fear that he couldn’t provide for his kids?
Another 20.
I had him imagine this picture: a giant wheelbarrow full of all his fear. Two 20s and an off-the-charts overflow of all this I-CAN’T energy. Not to mention the weak-in-the-knees feeling, the queasy belly, the sweat down his back.
“I hate it!” he said, as he described it to me. “I don’t want to feel this way! I want to do what my heart loves, and what I know how to do really well! I’m furious!”
We added that to the wheel-barrow, too. He then made it into a dump truck to be able to hold it all.
I knew he expected me to take him through some tapping with EFT (the Emotional Freedom Techniques – info at EFTBooks.com ).
But I waited a bit, and had him really feel the energy inside all those fears, anger and frustrations. This is a bit different from most EFT sessions where you are ordinarily coached to not suffer through the intensity.
Instead, I wanted to point out to him the enormity of the energy he was carrying around.
I asked him, “What if all that energy you’re feeling, plus the energy it takes to resist and hate feeling that way, was available to you for creativity, confidence and power?”
What a concept, no? He’d never thought of it that way.
“It’d be huge!” he said. “Man, what a waste it is that I’ve used it like this!”
So now we tapped, starting with the Karate Chop Point. Here are a couple diagrams of the face and torso tapping points if you’re unfamiliar with EFT.
We said as we tapped: even though:
I’m afraid of failure
my wife will scream at me and call me a dummy
and a no-good
I’ll feel small and useless and
I’m afraid I’ll start drinking again
my father-in-law thinks I’m just a jerk
I’ll never have his approval
I’ve never had it anyway
I hate feeling this way
I hate how stupid I feel
I feel so unsupported
and angry at them all
especially myself
I’m so afraid to let go and trust that my heart is right
I feel like such a chicken
no one appreciates me
I’m afraid to start stepping out of my job
Pretty real feelings. Hard to carry around for so long.
It turned out, after we got through all that, that he did have occasional invitations from people to do some landscaping for them, but he’d been too afraid to take them.
So we went though fear of calling them back, fear of rejection, fear of them laughing at him – until he finally started laughing and said, “I get it! All I need to do is take one fear at a time and turn it around into usable energy. I can do that!”
At the end of our session, I had him look at the Fear Dump Truck again.
“It’s gone! It’s a huge mountain of energy now!” he exclaimed. “It looks like new snow, clean and sparkling, and I can use it any time I want!”
He saw himself running and jumping right into the heart of the mountain, surrounding himself with energy and power and confidence, and allowing his heart to fill with clarity and enthusiasm for his dream.
Joe called me last night. He had me laughing as he told me he’d realized that he’d been so closed down that he had ignored his wife saying she wished he would “just get out of that stupid painting job.” Fear makes us blind!
He said, “I never even heard her say it! She told me she’s been wanting me to do something else because I’ve been so unhappy I’ve been a jerk. No wonder my father-in-law has hated me!”
Take your fear, anger, grief, blame, shame, self-pity, resentment, and self-hatred energy, pile it up where you can “see” it, do some tapping and clean it off, polish it up, and use it for your dreams. It works.
Don’t tell me you don’t have any of that! WE ALL do. It’s a gift! Think of the power in it! Hunt for every inch of it and turn it inside out.
