What if the moments that completely unravel your life are actually the ones that reveal your purpose? This week, Jessica sits down with Spirit Daughter founder Jill Wintersteen for the untold story behind her spiritual work. Known for her astrology insights, moon rituals, and intuitive teachings, Jill opens up about the chaotic chapter that shaped it all: a federal investigation connected to her partner, life under constant fear, and what it took to rebuild from rock bottom. Through breathwork, meditation, and deep inner healing, Jill shares how nervous system regulation, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and forgiveness moved her from survival mode into alignment with her intuition. As she released shame and healed old relationship patterns, she found her purpose, built Spirit Daughter, and manifested the grounded partnership she once thought was impossible. If manifestation feels clear in theory but difficult in practice, this episode explores why tending to your nervous system and working with your protector parts may be the key to finally expanding into the life you want.

A decade of stalled industrial AI efforts has given way to a new phase where agentic systems can finally handle complex, variable operational tasks without the brittle constraints of earlier automation. In this episode, Somya Kapoor, CEO at IFS Loops, joins Daniel Faggella Emerj CEO and Head of Research to examine how digital workers can be introduced as task‑specific assistants that learn from business instructions and progressively take on procurement, service, and back‑office responsibilities. She highlights the shift toward managing these agents alongside human teams, emphasizing focused adoption, measurable operational gains, and the need for built‑in oversight, auditability, and guardrails.

On today's episode I welcome Nitsan Joy Gordon, a dance movement therapist, IFS practitioner, and peacebuilder who lives in Israel. Nitsan shares about growing up in Israel, living near the border, and what it's like to live in a place where war and trauma have been part of daily life for generations. She also tells the story of how Internal Family Systems changed her own life. A powerful experience at Esalen with Dick Schwartz inspired her to use IFS in her work back home. Nitsan leads Together Beyond Words, an organization bringing Israelis and Palestinians together to transform pain through deep listening and connection. Her work is guided by the belief that pain that is not transformed is transmitted. After the attacks of October 7 and the immense grief and trauma that followed, Nitsan realized the need for healing had grown beyond what her organization had been doing. Today nearly 80 volunteers are offering ongoing support, and dozens of groups have been created where Israelis and Palestinians can process trauma, grief, and fear together. As you listen, I invite you to notice your own parts. What comes up for you as you hear these stories? What do you feel in your body? For me, this conversation was a reminder of the power of curiosity, one-on-one connection, and the courage it takes to stay present and open in our divided world. In This Episode We Talk About: • What it's like living in Israel today. • Nitsan's organization Together Beyond Words, which brings Israelis and Palestinians together to transform pain through shared healing. • The idea that "pain that is not transformed is transmitted." • A powerful IFS session she had with Dick Schwartz. • How the events of October 7 changed her work. • Why people need separate spaces to grieve before they can reunite. • When she realized the level of trauma requires an "army of healers." • How the Healing for Peace initiative grew from a handful of volunteers to nearly 80. • Why facilitators working in conflict zones are learning IFS tools like unblending and working with polarizations. About Nitsan Joy Gordon Nitsan Joy Gordon is a Dance/Movement Therapist, IFS therapist, and peacebuilder who has been working in Israel/Palestine for over three decades. Her work lives at the meeting point of movement, deep listening, and compassionate presence, creating spaces where pain shaped by conflict can be felt, witnessed, and transformed. She is the author of Together Beyond Words: Women on a Quest for Peace in the Middle East and the initiator of Army of Healers, an offering of safe spaces to feel and heal across deep divides. Learn more at: Together Beyond Words.

Click here to shop Eternity Collars Most people enter Dominant submissive dynamics carrying codependent patterns they don't even know they have. And the hard truth is that D/s doesn't dissolve those patterns. It amplifies them, because the structure of power exchange gives those patterns a very convincing disguise. In this episode, Andrew breaks down what codependency actually is, why it looks so much like Dominance and submission on the surface, and how to tell the difference between a dynamic driven by genuine power exchange and one driven by fear, control, and the need to fill an internal void. In this episode: Why D/s dynamics are fertile ground for codependent patterns to take root and grow The core definition of codependency and how it shows up differently for Dominants and submissives Real client examples of codependency disguised as D/s conflict How Dominants can bottom from the top without realizing it Why a submissive who can't let go of control may not be the problem her Dominant thinks she is The critical difference between a dynamic built on wholeness vs. one built on emptiness Why you cannot give power you don't have, and cannot lead from an empty place What differentiation is and why it's the foundation of real power exchange The internal work that actually moves the needle: EMDR, somatic experiencing, IFS, hypnotherapy, and more Resources: Get all of Andrew's free guides, training, and resources at: infinitedevotion.com/free-resources Ready to go deeper?

We've never done an episode quite like this before. We sat down with writer and creative Allie Carr—twice. In October 2025, she was just beginning to emerge from a really difficult chapter. When we spoke again in February 2026, her spark for life was fully back, and the seeds she had planted were unfolding in real time. In the months between, Allie moved through a Saturn return, career pivots, financial uncertainty, and a deep shedding of who she used to be. What looked like falling apart was actually falling into place. This conversation is a reminder that manifestation often has a full arc: the breakdown, the becoming, and the moment it all clicks.

If you're a parent, you might expect yourself to automatically have the right skills and inherent ability to help your child thrive. Yet no matter your child's age, you've likely found that parenting is no easy task. As every child is unique, even the most well-prepared parents often find themselves struggling. If issues such as neurodivergence and trauma enter the picture, things can get even more challenging. And because there's no single tip that fits all situations, today's top expert, Dr. Debra Kessler, has an impressive array of research-backed strategies that can help children–and their parents–become more self-aware, resilient, and confident. Topics discussed include neurodiversity, ADHD, trauma, bullying, IFS, Internal Family Systems, dominant culture, parenting, attunement, healing, school, emotions, emotional intelligence, ruptures, repairs, compassion, confidence, resilience, self-awareness, emotional connection, children, empowerment, and well-being.Please note that this episode may contain sensitive material; listener discretion is advised.Emergency Assistance Note: If you or someone you know needs immediate support, please call your emergency services.

Many divorced women quietly carry the same fear:“What if I can't trust my own judgment?”After a relationship ends, it's common to question everything — your choices, your instincts, even your ability to recognize what's healthy and what isn't.But for many women, that loss of self-trust didn't start in the marriage.It started much earlier.In this premium coaching episode, Tiffini works with one of our members to explore a pattern many women recognize but struggle to name: the tendency to override intuition and rely on discipline, logic, and control instead.When you grow up in environments where your inner knowing was ignored, dismissed, or contradicted, you often learn to survive by becoming hyper-responsible, hyper-disciplined, and hyper-analytical.Those strategies can help you function.But they can also slowly disconnect you from the quiet voice inside that knows what's true.In this powerful IFS-informed coaching session, you'll hear one woman begin to uncover how her childhood experiences shaped her relationship with intuition — and how those patterns later showed up in adulthood, relationships, and divorce recovery.Together, they explore how protective parts like perfectionism, over-discipline, and self-analysis develop as survival strategies… and what begins to shift when intuition is invited back into the decision-making process.If you've ever felt like you're constantly searching outside yourself for answers — books, advice, podcasts, or systems — this conversation may resonate deeply.Because rebuilding your life after divorce isn't just about making better decisions.It's about learning how to trust yourself again.In this episode, you'll hear:Why many divorced women struggle to trust their intuitionHow childhood environments can disconnect women from their inner guidanceThe survival strategies that develop when intuition isn't safe to trustHow discipline and over-analysis can become protective partsWhy rebuilding self-trust is a central part of divorce recoveryThis coaching session is available exclusively to our premium members.If you've ever wondered why trusting yourself feels so hard — or why you find yourself constantly searching outside yourself for answers — the deeper conversations inside the premium feed are where we explore these patterns in real time.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MyCoachDawnInstagram: (@dawnwiggins)Instagram: (@coachtiffini)On the Web: https://www.mycoachdawn.comA podcast exploring the journey of life after divorce, delving into topics like divorce grief, loneliness, anxiety, manifesting, the impact of different attachment styles and codependency, setting healthy boundaries, energy healing with homeopathy, managing the nervous system during divorce depression, understanding the stages of divorce grief, and using the Law of Attraction and EMDR therapy in the process of building your confidence, forgiveness and letting go.Support the show✨Join the Cocoon Community - your people are waiting! ✨

She responds to thoughtful listener questions about mistakes, trauma responses, inner parts, despair, and the complicated process of learning to trust yourself. We hope you'll agree that these questions open a compassionate conversation about growth, self-trust, and the reality that intuition often unfolds through experience, mistakes, and learning what truly matters to us.

Many of us want to trust our intuition — but it's rarely that simple. Old patterns, trauma responses, people-pleasing, anxiety, and our nervous system can all speak loudly inside us. When those voices mix together, it can feel confusing to know what's actually intuition and what's something else entirely. If you've ever looked back at a decision and thought “I should have known better,” you're not alone. Learning to trust your intuition isn't about always making the “right” choice, it's about building a relationship with yourself over time. In this episode of Moonbeaming, Sarah answers thoughtful questions from the Moon Studio community about intuition, discernment, trauma responses, and the deeper work of learning how to listen to yourself with compassion. In this episode, you'll hear: Why hindsight can make past decisions look like “mistakes” The difference between intuition and patterns like fear or people-pleasing Why we sometimes override our intuition — and what that reveals How Internal Family Systems (IFS) and parts work relate to intuition The role of protector parts, inner children, and nervous system responses Navigating intuition when you live with CPTSD or trauma patterns Building nervous system capacity to follow intuitive guidance How to stay connected to intuition during burnout, grief, or despair Using intuition to find support instead of forcing clarity Why some dreams we chase may not actually be ours How learning from experience turns “mistakes” into discernment The deeper question behind intuition: who you want to become If this conversation resonates with you and you'd like to go deeper into developing your intuitive voice, you may want to check out Sarah's Secret Studies: Intuition course: https://moon-studio.co/products/secret-studies-intuition-february?variant=49964951175463 Because in the end, intuition isn't about perfection, it's about learning how to listen to yourself.

Gat the free guided meditations that I reference at exploreifs.comThe episode addresses the intersection of internal family systems (IFS) with racism, harm, and human dignity. It emphasizes the importance of welcoming all parts while confronting harmful behavior, opposing harmful systems without dehumanization, and the role of self-leadership in healing. The nuanced and uncomfortable work of holding all these aspects together is highlighted.TakeawaysWelcoming all parts while confronting harmful behaviorOpposing harmful systems without dehumanizationChapters00:00 Addressing Important Matters06:16 Welcoming All Parts, Confronting Harmful Behavior14:00 Ongoing Self-Examination and Complications

Send a textThis wave of enterprise software announcements underscores how AI agents, ecosystem alliances, and data infrastructure are becoming foundational to modern enterprise architecture. Vendors such as Pipefy and Aquant are expanding libraries of pre-built AI agents, while Salesforce continues to scale its Agentforce ecosystem through industry-specific releases, AWS integrations, and its acquisition of Informatica to strengthen data governance and orchestration. At the same time, platform vendors like IFS and Freshworks are enhancing their core cloud offerings to embed automation and intelligence deeper into operational workflows. Strategic collaborations—including Zendesk's agreement with AWS and Iterable's release of a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server—highlight the growing importance of standardized orchestration layers that allow AI agents to operate securely across distributed systems. Meanwhile, initiatives such as Sage's AI Trust Label reflect increasing focus on governance, transparency, and responsible AI adoption as autonomous capabilities become embedded into mission-critical enterprise processes.In today's episode, we invited a panel of industry analysts for a live discussion on LinkedIn to analyze current enterprise software stories. We covered many grounds, including the direction and roadmaps of each enterprise software vendor. Finally, we analyzed future trends and how they might shape the enterprise software industry.Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yyTFFz7aXVAQuestions for Panelists?

What does it mean to reclaim the parts of yourself that trauma, shame, and pain taught you to hide?In Part 1 of this two-part conversation on Reclamation, Steve and Colleen explore how Jesus restores what was lost through wounds, false beliefs, and spiritual fragmentation. Colleen shares deeply from her own story of abuse, abandonment, healing, and the reclaiming of the true self through Christ.This is a conversation about more than pain from the past. It's about the renewing work of God in the present—and the hope of restoration for the future.Chapters:00:00 Trauma, the true self, and the cost to our relationship with God00:44 Welcome + introducing the Reclamation series (Embracing the Way)01:59 War, current events, and the unseen reality of spiritual warfare03:18 Defining reclamation: reclaiming what was lost in God, self, others, purpose04:29 Reclaiming the Imago Dei + Joel 2:25 (“years the locusts have eaten”)08:28 “Altar moments” + how healing unfolds over time10:13 Fragmentation and “orphan parts” (IFS) through a Christ-centered lens13:02 Colleen's story: abuse, walls, and rejecting the vulnerable self18:32 The “bitter root” memory + Jesus brings integration and healing26:02 Why we don't ignore the past: healing wounds without living stuck there

Send a textNervous System episode with Lauren Starnes:https://www.buzzsprout.com/1027246/episodes/18786923Healing starts when we stop guessing and start listening to the body. We kick off a focused season by defining trauma in plain language, mapping the window of tolerance, and showing how the nervous system becomes both the alarm and the doorway back to calm. I share why misusing the word “trauma” muddies real suffering, how symptoms show up in bodies first, and what changes when we treat headaches, insomnia, gut pain, and tension as data instead of defects.From there, we unpack PTSD without blame. You'll hear how clinicians assess reliving, avoidance, mood shifts, and hyperarousal; why timing separates acute stress from PTSD; and how a clear name can reduce shame and open access to care. We also preview a body-led approach with co-host Lauren Starnes, the “trauma translator,” whose work centers on nervous system regulation so the mind can safely process what happened. Regulation before revelation becomes our guiding practice.Two listener questions bring this to ground. First, how to protect children from your own trauma: do the work, model repair, and let your regulation lead. Second, what to do after a harmful EMDR experience: safety is treatment, trust the rupture, and consider proven options like CPT, CBT, IFS, narrative therapy, and somatic skills. Throughout, we emphasize practical tools—grounding, paced breathing, orienting, and gentle movement—to discharge survival energy and widen your capacity.We close with news close to my heart: the launch of Victory Trauma Consulting, offering accessible one-on-one support, education for churches and workplaces, and pricing that meets people where they are. If you're ready to understand triggers and flashbacks, regulate your nervous system, and reclaim a life that feels abundant and free, join us. Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs hope, and leave a review so others can find these tools. Your body is speaking. Let's learn its language together.You ARE:SEEN KNOWN HEARD LOVED VALUED

What if the thing that actually prevented burnout wasn't seeing fewer clients, but completely reimagining how you work? In this episode of The Traveling Therapist Podcast, I sit down with Charity O'Reilly to talk about how she built her practice around intensive therapy retreats and why that model changed everything for her.Charity shares how she went from running a high-stress nonprofit department to hosting five-day trauma intensives in a beautiful cottage in Pennsylvania, where clients fly in from all over the world. We talk about what intensive therapy retreats really look like, how she structures them every other week to protect her energy, how this model supports deep trauma work, and how it's given her the freedom to take an extended sabbatical. If you've ever felt like the traditional weekly model isn't sustainable, this conversation will stretch your thinking in the best way.In This Episode, We Explore…How Charity built her intensive therapy retreats model after 17 years in nonprofit work.What her five-day IFS-informed EMDR trauma intensives actually look like.Why she shifted from weekly intensives to every other week.How intensive work allows her to take an extended sabbatical.What therapists need to understand about licensure when clients travel to you.Connect with Charity:Website: https://charityoreilly.com/Online training: https://www.teawithatraumatherapist.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/teawithatraumatherapist/_____________________Are you ready to take the plunge and become a Traveling Therapist?

Helen Miller is joined by IFS colleagues Ben Zaranko and Bee Boileau to discuss the Spring Forecast. The headline numbers haven't moved much since the autumn, but that stability may not last. With conflict in the Middle East pushing up oil and gas prices, the UK faces a potential negative shock: higher inflation, pressure on interest rates, and a tougher outlook for households, businesses and the public finances.We discuss what higher energy prices could mean for government policy (from fuel duty to targeted support), why calls to raise defence spending are growing, and the scale of the trade-offs involved. We also look at three key forecast uncertainties: unemployment, migration, and volatile capital gains tax receipts. Finally, we ask how realistic tight future spending plans look ahead of the next Spending Review.Become a member: https://ifs.org.uk/individual-membershipFind out more: https://ifs.org.uk/podcasts-explainers-and-calculators/podcasts Hosted on Acast.

On today's episode I welcome psychotherapist and author Meg Josephson to the podcast. Her book Are You Mad at Me? names something so many of us feel but rarely say out loud: Did I do something wrong? Are you mad at me? Meg and I talk about the fawn response, people-pleasing, and the parts of us that learned early on to stay ahead of conflict. We explore how "being nice" can disconnect us from ourselves, why grief and anger are essential to healing, and how mindfulness helps us slow down enough to notice what's really happening inside. If you've ever swallowed your needs to keep the peace, felt resentful after saying yes, or worried that one mistake could cost you connection, our conversation will resonate. We Explore: • Why "Are you mad at me?" isn't really a question, but a feeling. • The difference between being nice and being compassionate. • How grief challenges the hope that if we try harder, we'll finally be seen. • Small corrective experiences that help our parts learn we're actually safe. Here's a link to the workshop she mentioned in the episode. About Meg Josephson Meg Josephson, LCSW, is a licensed psychotherapist and the author of the New York Times bestselling book Are You Mad at Me?, which has been translated into over 20 languages. In her private practice, she specializes in trauma-informed care through a mindfulness-based, compassion-focused lens. She holds a Master of Social Work from Columbia University.

In this special episode of Empowered Through Compassion, I am joined by my wife and partner in life and work, Heather Polidi, LICSW. After graduating from Boston University's School of Social Work in different years, we both began our careers at Wayside Youth and Family in different departments. Heather served as Program Director of the Children's Behavioral Health Initiative and CSA program, while I worked as an In-Home Therapist within CBHI. Today, we are co-owners of Empowered Through Compassion, a practice specializing in trauma healing and IFS-informed EMDR work. This episode marks the beginning of something new. We are launching a free monthly Livestream series, held on the second Tuesday of each month from 12:00 to 1:00 PM EST. Our first session is March 10. This kickoff will introduce the series and our recently released book, IFS-Informed EMDR: Creative and Collaborative Approaches. Our hope is to create a thoughtful and compassionate space for meaningful conversation. In the months ahead, contributing authors from the book will join us for deeper discussions. In this conversation, Heather takes an important step into the public side of our shared work. We talk about how Internal Family Systems has shaped not only our clinical practice, but also our marriage, communication, and shared vision for healing in community. IFS has given us language to understand our internal worlds and how they interact. It has helped us cultivate compassion for our protector parts and develop a steadier way to stay connected during stress and conflict. Heather speaks openly about the parts that surfaced as she chose to step more visibly into this next chapter of ETC. We would truly love for you to join us on our Livestream. Registration information for the Livestream series will be available soon on our website: EmpoweredThroughCompassion.com We are so appreciative of you being a part of this next chapter, in whatever way feels right for your system.

Tamala Floyd is an Internal Family Systems therapist whose work focuses on ancestral healing. Internal Family Systems, or IFS, begins with the premise that we are not a single, unified self; instead we are more like a constellation of parts, where some parts protect, some are exiled. The unification and integration of parts is the crucial work of IFS. Additionally, some parts carry burdens that never belonged to us in the first place — legacy burdens made up of beliefs and patterns inherited through our generational lines. This is where Tamala's work often focuses. If you're interested in IFS, I think you'll find that this is a really fascinating conversation with a deeply experienced and wise practitioner. Tamala and I talk about how her retreats function, how thirty people holding space can deepen one person's unburdening, and what healing looks like when the body knows it's being held with love. https://www.tamalafloyd.com

In this intimate conversation, Laura sits down with her longtime friend and clinical social worker Nicole Wagner to explore what it really means to heal. From DBT and IFS to mindfulness and “wise mind,” this episode unpacks the practical tools that help us move out of all-or-nothing thinking and back into clarity, connection, and self-trust.They trace Nicole's path into therapy — shaped by caregiving, art, and a deep curiosity about people's stories — and examine what brings people into therapy in the first place: the longing to be seen, heard, and understood. At the heart of the conversation is a powerful truth: we are often overwhelmed not by reality, but by the noise of our own thinking.If you've ever wondered how to communicate your needs, navigate relationship limits, or reconnect with your authentic self, this episode offers grounded, practical insight.

I experienced some surprising physical shifts and insights that came up after a few short listening sessions. If you're curious about nervous system regulation and how it can deepen your IFS work, I think you'll really appreciate this conversation.

What if addiction isn't a personal failure—but a survival strategy that got stuck on repeat? In Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Sayan, recovery coach Craig Perra offers a gentler, sharper lens on tech addiction and the inner battles many people hide. This episode is for anyone who looks “fine” on the outside but feels fragmented inside—especially if willpower talk has only deepened shame. You'll hear how Internal Family Systems (parts work) reframes craving as protection, why “curiosity over control” can shift everything, and two practical first steps to begin—without trying to fix yourself overnight. About the Guest: Craig Perra is a recovery coach and co-creator of the Mindful Habits System. He shares a lived, values-based approach to change through parts work, mindfulness, and self-leadership. Episode Chapters: 00:06:21 — Why “tech addiction” is the focus 00:07:20 — Addiction as survival: replacing shame with curiosity 00:10:35 — The downside of fighting “a part of you” 00:12:00 — Hitting a crisis point and choosing a new path 00:13:17 — “Benefits of addiction”: numbing, coping, regulating 00:17:30 — Morals, integrity, and building real capacity to change 00:23:01 — Two gentle first steps: tools + talking to the reactive part Key Takeaways: Ask: “What's the benefit this habit is giving me right now?” Treat the reactive part like a younger self: firm, kind, curious. Use 3 questions: What are you trying to accomplish? What job are you doing? What are you afraid would happen if you stopped? Aim for values + capacity: integrity grows when the nervous system can handle change. Reduce “life friction” the way you'd reduce business friction—less stress, more choice.

In therapy I use a combination of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Systems Theory, positive psychology, and a bio-psycho-social approach to treating mental illness and other challenges we all face in life. The ideas from my videos are frequently adapted from multiple sources. Many of them come from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, especially the work of Steven Hayes, Jason Luoma, and Russ Harris. The sections on stress and the mind-body connection derive from the work of Stephen Porges (the Polyvagal theory), Peter Levine (Somatic Experiencing) Francine Shapiro (EMDR), and Bessel Van Der Kolk. I also rely heavily on the work of the Arbinger Institute for my overall understanding of our ability to choose our life's direction.

On today's episode I chat with Keith and Courtney, cohosts of the podcast Tripping Over Love. Keith is licensed therapist and a Level 3 IFS Consultant, and Courtney is journalist and podcaster. They joined me to share their beautiful, messy love story. We dive into the courage it takes to start over, the "trauma" of the dating apps, and how they've used Internal Family Systems (IFS) and psychedelics to navigate the "breakups, breakdowns, and breakthroughs" of their relationship . We discuss: Starting relationships with truth instead of performance. Radical transparency — "starting with the ending" — as a foundation for trust. Why telling the truth early can save a relationship later. Loving someone while still grieving a past life. Speaking for parts instead of from them in moments of conflict. Finding the courage to try again after loss and heartbreak. Dating is messy: Getting honest about the "thrift store shopping" energy of dating apps. The difference between loving someone and being "in love." IFS as "four-wheel drive": Turning toward the model when relationships get stuck. How psychedelic-assisted journeys helped unlock grief — and create space to love again. Extended Interview At the end of our chat, I asked them each for one piece of advice for couples.

Have you ever felt safer letting someone else decide—not because you didn't care, but because choosing for yourself felt overwhelming or even dangerous? Dr. Greg explores the dependent defense pattern and why giving up agency can feel like survival—until healing restores the freedom to exist, choose, and love. Key Topics: Why dependency isn't just fear of being alone—but fear of not existing alone How proximity can start to feel like survival Why some people lose touch with what they want, like, or dream about How dependency can quietly shape marriages, families, and faith And how healing doesn't erase need—it restores freedom Learn More: Being Human episodes on narcissistic personality patterns: Ep. #261: Narcissism and the Terror of Being Ordinary Ep. #262: Spiritual Narcissism: Exposing the Sneaky Way We Use Religion as a Pattern of Protection Ep. #263: Holiness and Narcissism Ep. #264: IFS, JP2 and Narcissism Is Leadership of the Family a Man's Job?
