How to Rewire Your Brain, Let Go of Old Wounds, and Become Who You Were Meant to Be | Nick Ortner - EP 790
Descripción del Episodio
Today's episode will change how you think about anxiety, fear, and the stories you've been telling yourself about who you are.
Have you ever thought:
- Why do I keep repeating the same patterns?
- Why do certain memories still have power over me years later?
- Or maybe you've convinced yourself that this is just who you are.
According to today's guest, that's not true.
You can change your brain. You can change your emotional patterns. And you can become someone new without rejecting who you've been.
Joining John today is Nick Ortner, New York Times bestselling author of The Tapping Solution and his new book, Rewired. For more than two decades, Nick has helped millions of people use Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) to overcome anxiety, release trauma, and create lasting change.
In this episode, you'll learn:
- How tapping calms the nervous system and interrupts fear patterns
- Why painful memories continue to shape your behavior years later
- The science behind rewiring beliefs that keep you stuck
- How to overcome procrastination, self-doubt, and performance anxiety
- Why we spend more energy managing fear than pursuing possibility
- The surprising reason so many people no longer feel at home in their own lives
- What it means to develop self-trust and reclaim your emotional freedom
Here's the powerful truth at the center of this conversation: You don't have to remain who you've always been.
Your past may have shaped you. It does not have to define you. And once you understand how change actually happens, you can stop managing old wounds and start building the life you want.

Dan Carlin's Hardcore History
By shows
In "Hardcore History" journalist and broadcaster Dan Carlin takes his "Martian", unorthodox way of thinking and applies it to the past. Was Alexander the Great as bad a person as Adolf Hitler? What would Apaches with modern weapons be like? Will our modern civilization ever fall like civilizations from past eras? This isn't academic history (and Carlin isn't a historian) but the podcast's unique blend of high drama, masterful narration and Twilight Zone-style twists has entertained millions of listeners.

Mick Unplugged
By shows
Everybody talks about your WHY. Mick Hunt goes deeper. Mick Unplugged is the leadership and personal growth podcast built on one idea: your BECAUSE is the purpose underneath your purpose, and it is the most powerful force you own. Hosted by Mick Hunt, USA Today bestselling author and the voice of Modern Leadership, every episode sits across from a high performer, founder, athlete, or culture-shaper and asks the one question they cannot fake an answer to. What is your BECAUSE? Past guests include Shark Tank stars Daymond John and Kevin O'Leary, entrepreneur Gary Vaynerchuk, motivational legend Les Brown, Chef Robert Irvine, comedians Rickey Smiley and Earthquake, NFL Hall of Famer Jared Allen, hospitality mogul David Grutman, and World Series champion Jeremy Guthrie. No scripts. No surface-level fluff. Just the real fire behind why they refused to quit. If you are a leader, an entrepreneur, or someone who is done coasting on motivational quotes, this is your show. You will walk away every week with mindset shifts, leadership strategy, and the kind of straight talk that actually moves you forward. New episodes drop weekly. Follow Mick Unplugged on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube so you never miss one. Your BECAUSE is your Superpower. Go Unleash It.
