Why Personal Growth Needs Accountability—and How EFT Coaching Can Help

I just jumped off a call with a fellow EFT’er, and we had such a wonderful chat that I feel motivated and inspired to keep growing as a person. It’s moments like these that remind me why I continue to seek personal growth and why I value having support, accountability, and encouragement around me every step of the way.

Looking back, I realised that my passion for personal development didn’t fade after I stepped away from being a counsellor. I kept reading books, exploring different ideas, and learning, but the truth was, I rarely followed through on the exercises those books recommended. I’d tell myself, “I’ll come back to that part”...but I rarely did! This is a common pattern: while we know growth is important, taking action can be the hardest part.

Why Taking Action is the Hardest Part of the Personal Growth Journey

It turns out, I’m not alone in this. Studies show that, on average, only 13% of people actually complete the online courses they buy.

Why?

Because without accountability, community, and connection, it’s easy to let life distract us, especially when it gets difficult or uncomfortable. Growth isn’t a straight line; there are challenging parts, and often, those are the times when people give up.

This is where working with someone—having that built-in support system—makes all the difference.

How My Own Accountability System Keeps Me on Track

In my own life, I’ve seen how essential it is to have both personal and professional support systems in place.

Weekly chats with accountability friends, my own EFT sessions, and even my grounding daily dog walks are part of what keeps me on track.

This structure keeps me balanced, resilient, and, most importantly, motivated to do the work it takes to be the best version of myself.

We are all human; we all have struggles. But if you truly want to work through it and heal, then you have to do the work!

Why Work With Me?

When you choose to work with me, you’re not just getting a coach; you’re getting the support, accountability, guidance, and safe space you need to work through the real, messy parts of your growth journey. Here’s what that looks like:

1. Accountability and Encouragement: Personal growth isn’t about perfection. It’s about taking consistent, small steps. I’m here to help you stick with it, to remind you that even when it’s tough, the journey is worth it.

   
   

2. A Safe Space to Explore: Working together, we’ll dive into those deeply rooted beliefs and blocks that have held you back. I know from experience that it’s a process that requires compassion, curiosity, and an open heart.

   
   

3. Empowered Belief Shifts: Through EFT, we’ll clear old, unhelpful rules, “should’s” and “ought’s,” and replace them with new empowered beliefs that will steer you in a better direction.

   
   

4. Connection: You’re not alone in this. With me by your side, you’ll know that someone has your back, offering support through all the emotions that come up. That kind of connection can be a powerful rock to hold you steady.

   
   

Next Steps

To grow, to truly change, we need the motivation to keep going, especially during the challenging times. I’ve built my life and my practice around providing that support and encouragement because I know it works. I’d love to be that source of support for you too.

I have a Facebook group where you can gain support from a community of mums all on this growth path. And if you choose to go deeper, I offer 1-to-1 EFT coaching.

How I Use EFT Tapping Every Day to Support My Wellbeing

I benefit hugely from my 1-to-1 EFT sessions, as they help me work on deeper blocks and unhealed wounds. But I also benefit from tapping daily.

Why?

Because each day offers small clues to what’s still unresolved within us—things like difficult conversations, cravings we can’t seem to control, or procrastination that keeps us stuck. These are moments when our emotions might be trying to tell us something, yet we’re struggling to listen.

EFT tapping on a daily basis not only calms our nervous system but also helps us listen to what’s under the surface of these clues—our emotions, frustrations, or recurring thoughts.

My morning did not start well: my husband was in a lot of pain from his knee operation, and I was trying to keep our younger dog Bella out of his way. Meanwhile, my older dog, Max, wasn't interested in breakfast or walk and that’s really not like him. I just didn't have the usual resilience to cope with it all.

I took Bella for a walk and although the leaves were beautiful, and the walk was good for me, I couldn't calm the jittery feeling and my mind was going round and round with the events of the morning.

How I Used EFT Tapping to Shift My Morning Mood

I saw a bench and decided to sit down and tap on all of it, I started with tapping on what had happened, I then acknowledged my fears and worries, and said I choose to find a new way forward.

As I tapped through the points I allowed myself to acknowledge the events and feelings fully. I noticed a churning in my stomach and tapped on that sensation, accepting it without judgement.

Uncovering Limiting Beliefs: “My Needs Don’t Matter”

I started focusing on the positive - I choose to be strong, but in doing that I noticed the yes but - feeling so tired, so I tapped on that too, I then transitioned into noticing some emotions, feeling cross, frustration that my week has been turned upside down, and then all of a sudden I realised the belief that was underneath all of this. “My needs don’t matter” I tapped on this for a bit and then remembered that on the way into the woods I saw a deer so close and it was stunning, so I tapped on "my needs DO matter", the universe sent me that gift of seeing the deer and I am grateful.

I was starting to be able to focus on the positive now that I had cleared the negative energy in me. I tapped on my needs do matter, choosing to enjoy this walk, and that felt really energising. I was then able to continue my walk and really be present and notice the beauty around me.

This was all a natural process, I allowed it all to evolve, as things revealed themselves I tapped on it and as that cleared it showed what else needed healing.

Daily Tapping vs. 1-to-1 Sessions: What’s the Difference?

Daily tapping helps clear the outer layers of the metaphorical onion, while our 1-to-1 sessions dive into the heart of it, addressing the core beliefs that may be keeping you stuck.

Reclaiming Yourself: How EFT Tapping Helped Me Overcome Self-Doubt and Rediscover My True Self

Leaving a Life Behind: The Moment I Realised I Was Lost

When I left my abusive husband of six years, I felt like a shell of myself, like I had locked the essence of me away in a treasure box deep within my body to protect it. But in doing so, I felt lost and uncertain of who I was or what I wanted.

Determined to rebuild my life and confidence, I booked an activity weekend in Wales. I remember that journey clearly—the roads were terrible, the rain hammering down, and it took hours to get there.

The Turning Point: Finding Strength on a Rainy Welsh Cliff

On the first day, we went rock climbing. Despite the rain and wind, we kept going. I was one of the last to try. There was a tricky section that many struggled with near the top, and quite a few in the group had given up on it.

Recognising and Challenging Self-Sabotaging Beliefs

Finally, it was my turn. I got to that difficult spot and began to struggle. My mind was taunting me, echoing the familiar voice I’d heard for years: "You can't even do this. You’re useless." But then, without thinking, I yelled into the wind, "YOU ARE NOT GOING TO STOP ME!" In my mind, I was yelling at my ex, reclaiming my strength. Suddenly, a surge of energy flooded me, and I scrambled to the top of the cliff.

The sense of empowerment was incredible. For the first time, I had noticed those self-doubts—the ones I thought were so powerful—and I’d said, "No, you’re wrong!" .

When I abseiled back down, people were joking, "Do you feel better for that?" Embarrassed, I laughed it off, realising they’d heard my yell. But that yell was exactly what I needed in that moment to overpower the beliefs that had held me back.

What I realised that day is that these inner voices and beliefs can feel overwhelmingly powerful and convincing—but they don’t have to control us.

The Power of EFT Tapping to Quiet Inner Criticism

Since then, I’ve learned through EFT tapping to not only recognise but truly understand what lies beneath these self-sabotaging beliefs. Tapping has shown me how to gradually neutralise them, transforming my thoughts and beliefs into something kinder and more supportive.

Rediscovering Yourself Beyond Motherhood

If you’re feeling like you’ve lost the essence of who you are—perhaps wrapped up in the identity of ‘mum’ to the point that you’ve forgotten who you are—remember, you’re not alone. I’d love to help you reconnect with that true self.

Ready to Find the Real You? Try an EFT Taster Session

If you're ready to quiet those critical voices and reconnect with your true self, I invite you to a free EFT taster session. We’ll talk through your personal challenges, and I’ll guide you through tapping on a small topic, so you can experience firsthand the shifts that are possible.

It’s absolutely possible to reconnect with who you are and live with confidence, and I would be honoured to help you take that first step.
