    Dr. Neff is the BEST!
    I thoroughly enjoyed my conversation with Dr. Neff! He’s warm, encouraging, curious and courageous enough to let me lead him through a tapping sequence. The conversation flowed so easily. His tremendous skill as a host was obvious as he seamlessly led us from one aspect of tapping to another. And after our short time together, he already felt like a valued friend.

    A Powerful and Authentic Conversation – A Must-Listen Podcast! Being a guest on Neff Inspiration with Stephan Neff was an incredibly enriching experience. Stephan is not just a host—he’s a fellow traveler on the road of transformation, someone who speaks with raw honesty from his own journey through trauma and recovery.

Our discussion was deep, insightful, and filled with wisdom gained through lived experience. Stephan has a rare ability to guide these conversations with both vulnerability and humor, making even the heaviest topics feel approachable and hopeful. His commitment to transparency, self-love, and resilience shines through every episode, and it was an honor to share my own journey with his audience.

    An inspirational podcast for those that question where they are in life currently. Passionate and committed to spreading hope.
  • TRock1216
    Deep and raw truths
    I really enjoyed being a guest on the show. What a voice Stephan has on him! Sobriety and recovery are not a one size fits all approach so this show offers a great platform to hear the many triumphant stories of experience strength and hope. We are all worthy of a 2nd chance and as many as it takes to get it right. Addiction is the hardest thing a human being can overcome.
