Have you ever felt like you didn’t fit in? Or that you weren’t enough?
Maybe you felt rejected by your mother, father, or other family member, by friends or even by complete strangers, and felt the hurt of that deep inside?
If so, (and if not, I may be writing this post to a being from another planet!) I want to share an extremely moving and powerful video with you that was filmed during one of our Tapping Experience live events. In this video, you’ll get to watch and tap along as I work with Joanne on stage.
Joanne, like all of the other participants, came to get relief from physical pain. But as you’ll see in the video, whenever we tap on any issue, whether it be physical pain, weight, finances, relationships, or anything else, the core of the issues tend to go much deeper than just one topic.
Before you watch the video, I have two warnings for you:
#1 – This video is very moving, so have a tissue box ready. There wasn’t a dry eye in the house at the event during this, especially with what happens at the end. I won’t spoil what happens – you’ll want to see this for yourself.
#2 – I know that some people are offended by strong language. There is one point in the clip where both Joanne and I swear, not just for the sake of it, but with a very specific purpose as you’ll see. I just thought I would warn you so that you are prepared and not offended (and in case kids are in the room!). 🙂
Click on the video below to watch now. And after you watch, please leave your comments of support for Joanne and what insights you gained from watching this. She was extremely courageous for getting up on stage and sharing her story. I hope that her courage inspires you as well.
If you’d like some relief from pain (both physical and emotional) then I highly recommend you check out our Tapping Solution App!
With over 150 meditations to choose from across 15 different categories (and counting!), there’s something in there for everyone. 🙂
Until next time…
Keep Tapping!
Nick Ortner
That was really a wonderful experience. I wish you the best of everything.
What an awesome video! You go girl! Don’t be afraid to shout F@#$ You from the roof top if it helps release your anger!
You go girl! We’re only one letter apart, and I too had a father who made me feel unworthy, and told me so in no uncertain terms. He had been beaten as a child and had only pain to impart to me and my brother. I understand and forgive him, but unfortunately, that does not make all the stored pain go away. I’ve been afraid to start tapping on all my issues on the Tapping Tree because of the pain it brings up. But this pain will live on and limit me if I don’t do whatever I need to clear it. You inspire me.
(Wow, the same tango music Por Una Cabeza from Scent of a Woman, where the blind man tangos. And from True Lies. A classic!! How appropriate.)
Hi Nick and Alex, what YOU 2 did with Joanne was just absolutely wonderful, to say the least! Congratulations to your way of helping people in such fantastic ways, I do admire you both!
I am now 61 years old, and only a short while ago, I know, that I AM ENOUGH AND WORTH IT!… and Thank’s to the tapping I really love myself anyway!!!
Hurrah, hurrah!
Thank’s Nick for this wonderful gift!
Sincerely; Anita Aeschbacher from Switzerland
Dear Joanne,
I praise you for your courage. I did follow along and had Daddy Issues also, but my Husband came up with this tapping session while watching and Tapping along with you.
Same Issue not being good enough, always told to keep trying. Nothing fails but a try.
Expect my keep trying just meant that I kept failing to get my Fathers love, Same apply to my Husband.
I will keep Tapping on this issue and Replaying your Session until I have the complete results no anger towards Either My Father or Husband.
Thanks Nick and Joanne
Lilly
Amazing so upsetting but all good and positive in the end well done to everyone involved xx
Awesome. Powerful. You guys rock. By the way Happy Birthday Nick.
OH! WOW! Thank you Joanne for sharing and thank you Nick.
Good for you Joanne!! You demonstrated to all of us that we have strength beyond what we could ever know or hope for. To acknowledge our fears and face them is to regain our power and launch us forward into all of the beauty and love that we are here to experience. It is amazing how our fears can lock down our body in such physical pain, and how tapping can release it all again. Sending you so much love as you dance through the rest of your life.
Hi Joanne,
You are really beautiful inside and out. Thank so much for sharing and so deeply. The session helped me see I can use tapping to work on issues coming up around loneliness. I also appreciated your comment about enjoying the feminine in Tango dancing. What a beautiful way to see it. I may be inspired to start salsa dancing again and maybe start tango dancing. What gentleness and love was shining through you, Nick, and Alex. Many blessings to you all.
Thank you for this heart touching and moving video clip of the transformation of Joanne. I applaud you Joanne for having the courage to heal this deep, and painful issue and negative belief we all share in some ways. Thank you Nick for posting this , so we can all participate in our own version of healing for the same issues.
Dear Nik, THANK YOU, watching a video I managed to do their trauma related to my father. As Joan and I know that I have not quite finished cleaning. Thank you for all this. In the end, I wished that I had some help like you because I feel so alone, it is difficult to do alone without help. Every video I have to glance much it helped me, thank you very much.
very very touching. I found tears rolling down my cheeks. we all have similar blocks, I too have them and could relate to Joanne.
It was wonderful to see Joanne being brave enough to bear her soul in front of others. It is always lovely to see people go through a transformation and to be able to let go of the pain. Nick is so gifted with his tapping methods and his kindness and compassion for people emanates from him. Joanne looked so peaceful in the final interview compared to when she appeared on stage. You began to shine. Joanne – Keep dancing! You looked so beautiful when dancing with Alex – truly in the zone. Hugs!
I have a lot of experience with feeling I don’t fit in and that I am not good enough. Therefore, I watched this video with great interest. Joanne– good for you for exercising your courage muscles and doing this wonderful thing for yourself. I tapped along with you, and I rooted for you. It was great to see your joy at the end of the dance.
Also, Nick, I was touched by how respectful and caring you are. I can understand how so many people can feel safe and take risks while working with you.
it hit something in me with a similar situation.. im still shaking. the most emotional video i seen yet..joanne thank you for sharing this amazing video with us.. i am sending you thoughts of love. you really deserve it..
I am so in awe of you taking the chance to bare your sole to everyone, which takes tremendous courage. You should definitely acknowledge that Joanne. In sharing that moment of vulnerability, made possible by the wonderful support of Nick and Alex, you were able to grow physically and emotionally. The transformation was amazing to watch. I’m so thrilled for you, you deserve it! You are a beautiful dancer Joanne, so fluid and light on your feet, do continue to allow that incredible spirit to grow and shine. 🙂
You are SO worth it Joanne!! I hope you continue tapping your way to a more fulfilling life of joy and DANCING!, Congratulations for being so brave!
I watched this by chance…or did I?? Amazing insight into the effect that our parents can have over our entire lives. I have been struggling with abandonment issues since I was 7 years old. My mother took her own life when I was 9 months old. My father met and married again when I was 5 and left me with my grandmother (who had already become my replacement mother.) He went off to live with his new wife. I saw little of him until I was 11 when he decided to take me away from my grandma to live with him and my stepmother, (the week before I began at a new school.) The trauma of the day he came to get me and the following years has haunted me and remained in my life. It has successfully affected every aspect from relationships to work issues and finances. Now at last, I really know what to do!! Thank you Nick and all your team, this video was heart wrenching, but tremendously powerful. My love and very best wishes to you all for your ongoing help and compassion.
Thank You, Thank You, Thank You, Joanne you are a beautiful brave woman, the garbage that some of us manage to store in our heads is crippling. Nick, thank you for all your work with the tapping so many of us need it. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much for sharing this powerful video…I was laughing and crying along. Thank you for inspiring me to release my own rage and say those three words to my own father! Keep dancing Joanne, you are beautiful and you are loved xxx
Dear Joanne,
Thank you for your bravery. In telling your story which is also my story you helped me so much. Tapping along with you and Nick open up a place in me that I was unaware of. I feel it has opened my path to healing.
Thank you. ..thank you. ..thank you. …sending you much love on your journey. …Elizabeth
I couldn’t believe that someone so timid would be so happy and vocal after the tapping session. I saw a lot of me in her. Thank you Nick and family for the wonderful work you are doing. God Bless you all.
Wow! What an inspirational video. I felt like it will help me on my life journey!
Joanne you should be so proud of yourself for standing up for You and taking back your power. Your willingness to approach this helped me and numerous others. I can see the stress just rolled off of you after you tapped. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and here’s to Your Success. Were your feet on the ground when you danced? It looked to me like you were soaring, flying, in freedom.
Nick – you just melt my heart with your unconditional love and caring for everyone. You absolutely light up the room every time you smile. You have a very contagious smile – I can’t help but smile every time I see you. Your love, compassion and selfless gift of giving is one that makes our World so much brighter because You care enough to walk with others to reach their place of peace and freedom from past limitations and fears. May you be blessed abundantly and thank You for touching my life.
Wow….Im excited to learn more….
You go girl!!! So proud of you and you are very coverages!! There’s no stopping you know!!!
This was wonderful. I tapped with Joanne and appreciate this video.
Thank you so much for your courage, for releasing and for dancing. I will picture you dancing each day and smiling. You are beautiful
What a touching session. You ARE worth love, Joanne. <3
Dearest Joanne,
You are not alone! You told my story only I was made to lay on a bed no pants on and beaten with my dad’s belt ! He took all the money my mother left me to get a home and my three siblings made sure I did not get a thing. I am now homeless because of that! I would be dead without Nick and Jessica and my tapping teacher here in Victoria! I am so proud of you and yes we are allowed to get Angrey I sure am having to loose most of my stuff and having to live in a filthy home with a old friend who drinks and smokes and it makes me sick my own family would leave me to this! But saying Fuck you is what needs to be said, always ha! Thank you and I’m on your side keep tapping and keep in touch with Nick! All my love Nancy

What a great video, thank you for sharing Nick. Joanne, you are an amazing woman to show such bravery and vunerability. I could relate to your story in such a way that it touched my heart and soul. You are very blessed to have tapped with Nick and to have shared such a beautiful dance with his brother. Many hugs!
Joanne that was amazing! The transformation from your demeaner when you walked onto the stage to your beautiful confidence in the interview: inspiring! You are indeed a beautiful soul. They will be tripping over themselves to dance with you now. xx
You’re right that’s one I don’t like, but I think there are ways to step on toes without stan words. She has to make her mine to forgive,take the mask off, no more lies,if he’s living tell him the truth, release the angry because you end up lying to yourself. When you lie so long, you loose the capacity for truth (1 Timothy 4:2) see it only as a distant memory (1 Timothy 6:5). I don’t know if she believes in God, I have no ideas how I would have made it and I believe that Tapping could help me to related to others who may not believe, yet focusing on self to be placed on the right track. I honestly believe there is nothing we can do with out God. Nothing satan can do either with out God, God steps out of the way at time to give us our trails and tribulation, to be tested to see our strenght and courage to keep believing that he will change things. You are her angel in heaven sent to guide her in a direction to believe in her self and God’s power to change things. Rowan 15:2 says that each one of us needs to look after the good of the people around us, asking ourselves, How can I help? Hopefully she can build a faith that works. One thing will always be God is in control.
May God bless you and keep you.
My Dear, Dear Joanne: May I have the next dance?????????????????????????
You are so very special and thank you for letting us join you on your
Spiritual Journey.
Life is a Journey and not a Guided Tour
Dear Joanne,
Congratulations on finding the courage to go through this painful traumatic memory and allowing for the transformation to happen with the skillful and sensitive guidance of Nick Ortner! And the wonderful surprise of the tango with Alex was moving beyond description.
Thank you.
Keep dancing,
Mina x
Joanne, doing what you did took so much courage and strength to continue the process with Nick. I am so glad to be able to share your experience because you have obviously given permission that others could see your video experience. I wish you well as you continue your journey of loving the beautiful person you are. Your face changed from the beginning of the vide to the end and you became so pretty. All I could see was your beautiful relaxed face! Now you can buy yourself a new dress, Nurture yourself with a hairstyle that accentuates your beauty and join the people you thought were the Beautiful people because you are as beautiful AS THEM! SMILES, Jackie
Watching and participating in the tapping along with this was so cathartic! I recently split with a man I had been seeing over the last year and had been doing all the appropriate tapping…. but when Nick led with the Bomb word, I shouted it out with great glee and did more for my healing that I could have imagined. A great lesson in how brutally honest we need to be with ourselves in this tapping process. Courageous! Thanks Nick. I keep learning more each day. I’ve led 2 women through the process in the last 3 days and saw such release and healing. It astonishes me the power in it. My heart soars at the possibilities of people being set free so quickly, so easily. I love it!
That was amazing …so want to help people ..I lost my dad amonth ago …..and tapping help me .made her the happy lady xxxxx
This woman found courage and she will overcome her anxiety if she continues to tap. She has a lot to overcome. Healing starts with a first step. Thanks so much for this video.
I’ve started tapping to help myself with anger and frustration and I know it works.
l love these 2 Ortnerguys AND the sister, What a family !
I learned the tapping years ago in New York from Gary Craig and have done it since on myself, on others, clients and groups……….And then forgot about it for a while. Recently picked it up again.
Seeing you Nick is great, You are a Master. I know how it feels, when we receive the gift of knowing what to say, When and how to change from negative to positive and back and forth, including the humor.all gentle ,firm an loving.
Please continue. you are an Inspiration,
Warm regards, Bernardina!
joanne, you deserve the best so iwish u the best at evrey thing and i love u .
joanne, i ask u to go on in forgiveness ,keep forgiveness,keep forgiveness
keep forgiveness,keep forgiveness.
god bless u
( sorry for bad english, )
I learned that when Joanne expressed deep pain with dramatic emotion, my natural reaction was to tense up, and that would not have helped her. Joanne needed someone to stay focused,be persistent, and be creative in helping her get to and through the deepest part of the memories. Nick modeled for us a way to think and act and talk with clarity and appropriate humor in a way that touched Joanne. He helped her get through that tunnel of painful memory to the other side where there is relief and a lighter way of being. I applaud Joanne for staying strong as she faced and felt the release of pent up emotion. I am hopeful that Joanne will continue to face and release other difficult areas that need attention. Thanks for sharing this video.
I tapped and cried with you and admired your courage to share it. I wish you happiness and contentment and lots of dancing!
Also to Nick and Alex – your compassion and respect was beautiful!
I tapped along with you – being terrified and not being picked except for being beat up daily from my father and stepmother (and they loved doing it) and more ist also my issue. Funny that I watched this now 31.12.2013 silvester and I didn´t have the courage to go out and dance or anywhere else ( my children have partners, I´m 51 now, divorced 2 times and alone since 5 years)….I think I will be able to go out tonight for the first time since years. Fuck you Dad and Stepmother. I bless you and all beings with Love and Light and everything Love knows you need. Thank you for sharing.
This was so wonderful to watch. It touched me deeply. So many of us have felt “unchosen”, and I could identify with Joanne’s feelings because I’ve had them, too. Thanks, Nick. And thanks to Joanne for being so brave and honest. The dance was a lovely, healing thing to see.
That was an AMAZING video. She was so brave! She was a great example to me! What a wonderful woman and tremendous video. Thank you!!!!
