Today Michael welcomes Brad Yates. Brad is known internationally for his creative and often humorous use of Emotional Freedom Techniques, also known as EFT. He works with everyone from professional athletes, CEOs, clinicians, and actors, to people struggling with addiction, showing them how to overcome fear and stress, master their emotions, and improve their lives. Brad is co-author of the best-selling book, “Freedom at Your Fingertips” and penned the best-selling children's book, “The Wizard's Wish”. His YouTube channel has over 600 videos that have been viewed over 14 million times. Fun fact: Brad’s also a graduate of Ringling Bros. & Barnum & Bailey Clown College! Highlights from Michael and Brad’s insightful conversation include: -Brad’s transformation from aspiring Hollywood actor and clown college graduate to discovering his true calling in hypnotherapy and energy work -How a simple experiment with chocolate cravings opened Brad’s eyes to the life-changing potential of tapping, and marked the beginning of his YouTube journey -The science and history of EFT, from acupressure roots to regulating the amygdala and nervous system -How early experiences shape lifelong fears and limitations, and how tapping helps dissolve those subconscious barriers -Exploring unconscious resistance and cultural programming towards money, and using tapping to shift financial beliefs -From chocolate to alcohol, how tapping helps address cravings by uncovering the emotional roots behind them -The importance of compassion in the age of social media, and how tapping offers an immediate reset of emotional triggers -A deep dive into how availability—not effort—is the key to abundance, and how resistance keeps us from seeing the opportunities already around us -The inspiration behind Brad’s children’s book, The Wizard’s Wish, which teaches kids to see their fingers as “magic wands” for self-healing -A reflection on self-love and how releasing resistance transforms self-perception and creates lasting change Finally, Michael leads a closing meditation inviting us to release limiting perceptions, connect with Source and awaken to our true nature 🪷Connect with Brad at his website, https://www.tapwithbrad.com/ and check out his video library at his YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/tapwithbrad. ✍️Love Take Back Your Mind?

**Please note: Due to internet issues during recording, there are brief moments where the video freezes; however, the audio remains clear throughout. Thank you for your patience and understanding!** Today, Michael speaks with Anita Moorjani. Anita is a renowned author and spiritual speaker known for her transformative journey beyond the brink of death. Anita battled end-stage cancer before experiencing a remarkable near-death experience that shifted her perspective on life. Her bestselling memoir, "Dying to Be Me," chronicles her profound journey and miraculous healing. Anita travels the world sharing her insights on self-love, consciousness, and the interconnectedness of all things. Her new book, “Sensitive is the New Strong,” is out now. Conversation highlights include: -Anita’s near-death experience: the freedom from pain, the absence of fear, and the deep clarity that revealed how her life choices shaped her illness -Her turbulent relationship with her father and the weight of cultural traditions that led to a life-changing act of defiance that shaped her path and healing -Reuniting with her father on the other side in unconditional love, seeing glimpses of her future mission, and facing the decision to return to physical life -Waking up from her coma, against all odds, accurately recalling conversations she “shouldn’t” have heard, and beginning her stunning physical recovery -How a simple online post about her NDE caught the attention of Dr. Jeffrey Long—and then Wayne Dyer—setting Anita’s public mission into motion -How illness often begins at the soul level, why fear fuels disease, and how choosing joy, love, and purpose can reverse one’s life trajectory -Shifting from “remission” to “remember my mission,” Anita reframes healing and explains why letting go—rather than holding onto resentment—sets you free -Why true transformation comes from communion with the soul, not just treating symptoms, and how this deeper work sustains physical and spiritual wellness Finally, Michael leads a guided meditation to open the heart and mind to the ever-present blessings of the Universe. 🪷Follow Anita across social media and at https://www.anitamoorjani.com/ where you can get her books and check out her Sanctuary membership platform for those seeking deeper healing and guidance. ✍️Love Take Back Your Mind?
