I sat down with the incredible Rachel Welford, a renowned EFT tapping practitioner, sound therapist, and mental health expert who’s on a mission to help women reclaim their power over their minds and emotions. 

Rachel’s story is nothing short of transformational—she’s been through severe burnout, battled depression, anxiety, PTSD, and even navigated the complexities of neurodiversity. And guess what? She came out on the other side with a toolkit of powerful techniques to share. 

We dive DEEP into:

• What EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) is and how it can help you drop your stress hormone levels by up to 60% (there’s science to back it up).
• The connection between cravings, stress, and how EFT can literally rewire your brain to break free from patterns that no longer serve you.
• Rachel’s personal journey of overcoming trauma, her “coat of sand” analogy for depression (this hits hard), and how she built her Happy Habits to stay strong—even during one of the toughest years of her life.
• The power triangle of stress (victim, rescuer, bully)—and how to escape it.
• Why creating tiny, consistent habits (aka “well-being snacks”) is more powerful than trying to overhaul your life overnight.
• Rachel also drops some serious truth bombs on self-compassion, letting go of the need to “fix” yourself, and how to start focusing on what lights you up instead of what holds you back.

Whether you’re new to EFT, curious about creating your own Happy Habits, or just looking for that push to take control of your emotional well-being, this episode is your sign to start saying YES to yourself.
