Brad Adams — LAMPS (Los Angeles Psychedelic Society) joins Kyle to trace his path from PhD researcher to community builder. Brad shares how early work in AIDS, Alzheimer's, gerontology, and cancer research primed him to notice Harbor-UCLA's psilocybin pilot for stage-4 cancer patients with death anxiety—where the strongest mystical experiences correlated with profound death acceptance. Teaming with Dennis McKenna, he ran an ayahuasca pilot in Peru and presented findings at Psychedelic Science 2017. From there, Brad founded LAMPS: first as research meetups at UCLA, then as a thriving hub hosting speakers and, ultimately, an L.A. psychedelic conference. He previews the November 1 event at Above the Block in West L.A.: daytime panels on cannabis, preparation/integration, and music & psychedelics; a vendor hall; and a “Healing Lounge” with bodywork, astrology, human design, and more—closing with a late-night dance party featuring David Starfire. Brad offers grounded advice for starting local communities (begin small, meet regularly, curate safe dialogue, and moderate firmly), and reflects on platform friction around psychedelics. The conversation widens to DMTx (extended-state DMT), entity encounters, and what humble, relational curiosity can reveal—then to Wetiko, IFS, and the hero's journey as frames for keeping hope alive in turbulent times. A candid and practical tour of research, resilience, and real-world community building.

In this episode, I chat with Caitlan Siegenthaler, a Level 2 IFS licensed therapist and podcast host who specializes in IFS and Human Design. What I love about Caitlan's work is how she treats both frameworks as paths home to Self. She shares how Human Design entered her life and how she integrates it with IFS to help clients befriend their parts. She recently led a Human Design reading session with Dick Schwartz, founder of IFS.  In this conversation, we explore: How IFS and Human Design work together to help us return to our authentic Self How understanding your Human Design chart can help you connect with your internal system in a whole new way The five Human Design energy types and what they can teach us about our systems How Human Design mirrors IFS as a spiral — a way of returning, again and again, to Self Why curiosity matters more than mastery when exploring new systems We also recorded an extended interview with Caitlan for our paid Substack community about supervision and consultation — why it matters, how to find it, and how it helps therapists bring more of themselves into the room.  You can connecct with Caitlan at caitlansiegenthaler.com, listen to her Return podcast, and check out her free five-episode series on navigating indecision using Human Design and IFS.

How can Internal Family Systems help us prepare for, experience, and integrate psychedelic journeys in a truly Self-led way? And what if Self itself can be the journey, without medicine at all? In this episode, I talk with Nick Brüss, an IFS practitioner and licensed marriage and family therapist who specializes in psychedelic-assisted therapy. What I loved about this conversation is how grounded and humble Nick is about the work. He reminds us that psychedelics can open the door, but Self is what does the healing.  Why listen: Many people are curious about how psychedelics and IFS intersect. This conversation goes deeper into integration, humility, and what it really means to let Self lead before, during, and after expanded states. In this conversation, we explore: How IFS can guide and ground psychedelic experiences through Self Energy Why integration, not the journey itself, is where true healing happens How to meet expanded states with curiosity, consent, and care for all parts How to partner with the medicine to turn toward what needs our attention, bringing the same kind of compassion and curiosity we bring to our parts The nervous system and trauma dynamics that often surface after psychedelic experiences How Self can open the same sense of connection and wonder that psychedelics reveal The risks of spiritual bypass and how to stay Self-led  What an ethical, Self-led approach to psychedelic healing looks like Favorite Quotes: “The real question is, are we partnering with the medicine, or are we giving it all the power?” — Nick Brüss “Psychedelics don't heal anyone. They open a window. What heals is the relationship with Self.” — Nick Brüss Connect with Nick at www.apracticeoffreedom.com Episode Sponsor Pisgah Coaching Institute: Founded by IFS-trained master coach Brian Jaudon, a pioneer in the integration of IFS and coaching for more than two decades.

In this episode of I speak with Musenge Luchembe, a gifted ecotherapist, licensed psychotherapist, and IFS-certified clinician who was a program assistant when I took my IFIO (Intimacy From the Inside Out) training. In this episode, Musenge and I dive into how nature and the natural world can support deep healing, bringing together her work in ecotherapy, somatic modalities and couples work. She shares reflections on how being held by the land, the elements, and relational attunement fosters integration and opens the way toward wholeness.

Today's episode features Ralph De La Rosa. Ralph was the author of three books, including Outshining Trauma: A New Vision of Radical Compassion (foreword by Richard Schwartz). He was a psychotherapist in private practice and a longtime meditation teacher known for his radically honest and humorous approach. His work was featured in GQ, CNN, NY Post, Tricycle, Mindful Magazine, and beyond.Perhaps most crucial is that Ralph walked the path of outshining trauma alongside the people he worked with. He was a survivor of PTSD, heroin addiction, Borderline Personality Disorder, ADHD, and liver failure. Walking through these matters with the help of profound therapists and mentors became an empowerment no school could have offered. It was simply part of his path to offer back what he had been shown.Ralph mentored personally with Richard Schwartz, founder of the Internal Family Systems model of psychotherapy, known for its efficacy in healing trauma. He also completed an invite-only advanced teacher training with Jack Kornfield.He began practicing meditation in 1996 and trained in a spectrum of yogic and healing traditions, including devotional Hinduism and Tibetan Buddhism. Ralph began teaching Buddhist-inspired meditation in 2008. He identified as a practitioner and teacher of human spirituality, offering a highly specialized hybrid of IFS and Buddhism to guide students on a direct path of conscious evolution and self-discovery.As a therapist, Ralph was a summa cum laude graduate of Fordham University. He spent his earliest days working in NYC's clinical foster care system where he trained in multiple modalities of trauma-focused therapy. He maintained a small roster of therapy clients for the love of witnessing transformation up close.Ralph was also an intersectional activist, musician, wannabe acrobat, and outdoor enthusiast, who made his home in Seattle, WA. His teachings and writings continue to inspire and support people navigating trauma and transformation.Some of the topics we covered in this episode include:A beginning guided meditationWhat drew Ralph to IFSOverlaps with ACT and IFSThe value of living with an open heartAnd Ralph guides me through some experiential IFS work—————————————————————————Outshining Trauma: https://a.co/d/cQ8kREn—————————————————————————Thank you all for checking out the episode!

Send us a textWhat happens when talk therapy isn't enough? When the pain runs so deep that even the best therapist can't reach it? Curt Kearney joins today to share his personal story of turning to psychedelics as a last resort and how that decision changed the entire trajectory of his life.This is a deeply grounded conversation about trauma, treatment-resistant depression, and the inner parts we exile to survive. Curt breaks down how Internal Family Systems (IFS) and psychedelic-assisted therapy can work together to bring those parts back into relationship, sometimes for the first time in decades. This is not a conversation about quick fixes. It's about safety, trust, and the power of showing up for the parts of ourselves we were taught to bury.This Episode Covers:Curt's first experience with LSD at 17 and how it altered his mental health journey.The difference between exiles and protectors in IFS.How psychedelics can amplify self-compassion and internal clarity.The importance of preparation and consent in psychedelic work.A powerful case study of MDMA-assisted therapy for PTSD.Why “bad trips” often come from neglected parts not feeling safe.The role of integration and ongoing relationship with inner parts.What happens when the monster inside turns out to be you.Connect with Curt:LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/curt-kearney-39824643/Website - https://www.curtkearney.com/Until next time, here's to deeper connections and personal growth.Mad love!The podcast is now on YouTube!

Leadership Under FireWhen I sat down with Lance Olmsted, I expected a story about discipline and precision.What I didn't expect was how deeply human it would be.Lance served as a U.S. Marine. He learned to lead in the most uncertain environments imaginable — where hesitation could cost lives and empathy wasn't optional.That's right...empathy. And you'll never forget why when you hear his story.Those lessons stayed with him and became a positive guiding force.Today, as President of Copperleaf, an IFS company, he's guiding global teams and helping industries use AI to make smarter, faster decisions.Before that, he helped drive a $1 billion unicorn exit by applying the same mindset that got his Marines home safe:✅ Focus on the mission, not the noise.✅ Act fast and adapt faster.✅ Build trust before you need it.✅ Lead with empathy, even under fire.His story is proof that military leadership still works — not because it's rigid, but because it's built on resilience, clarity, and purpose.Which part of this perspective resonates most with you?-----Follow Lance on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lance-olmsted-98708568/-----Connect with the Host, #1 bestselling author Ben FanningSpeaking and Training inquiresSubscribe to my Youtube channelLinkedInInstagramTwitter

When Tony first came to Enfold with his wife, Chantel, he was searching for something that years of therapy and effort couldn't unlock: greater empathy. Despite his love for her, he often felt frozen in moments of her pain — unable to connect, unsure why. That first intensive opened the door. He began to feel her emotions and be with her through them, rather than analyze them, marking a profound shift in how he related to love, vulnerability, and safety.A year later, Tony returned on his own — no longer to save his marriage, but to understand himself. What unfolded was an intimate encounter with his deepest wound: abandonment. Through 5-MeO-DMT and a dedication to the integration work, Tony reconnected with the parts of himself that had never known safety or intimacy. In a moment of clarity, he realized that what he longed to give to others was what his own inner child had always needed — to simply be held.This second journey deepened Tony's relationship with himself — expanding his capacity for compassion, acceptance, and presence across his business, family, and spiritual path.In This EpisodeHow early emotional absence shaped Tony's struggle with empathyThe power of returning to the medicine with a new intentionUncovering abandonment as a lifelong survival patternHow integration practices like breathwork and IFS are the backbone of healingReconciling spiritual growth with an entrepreneurial driveLearning to face mortality with openness rather than fearWhy healing is less about breakthroughs and more about devotion to practice

In this gentle guided meditation, Tim Fortescue invites you to slow down and connect with the parts of yourself that carry grief, anger, fear, or other difficult emotions. Through the lens of Internal Family Systems (IFS), you'll learn to meet these parts with compassion rather than resistance, creating space for healing and inner harmony.You'll be guided to notice what's present, listen deeply, and offer gratitude to the parts that have worked so hard to protect you. No fixing—just presence, breath, and care.✨ In this episode:Grounding through body and breathMeeting protectors and vulnerable partsPracticing self-energy: calm, curiosity, and compassionLearning to build trust within your inner system

“Man is divided within himself.”  So says the Vatican II document Gaudium et Spes.  Sins – original sin, the sins of others, and your own personal sins lead to your inner fragmentation and the obscuring of your conscience.  What is your conscience?  Where is your conscience within you?  What does Vatican II say about IFS concepts?  How did St. Maximilian Kolbe live sacrificial love in Auschwitz with interior integration, inner unity?  And what does Vatican II say about psychology and the social sciences?  Dr. Gerry Crete joins me for a wide-ranging discussion of these questions and so much more.

Fresh from the 2025 IFS Conference and in celebration of the podcast's 100th episode, I sit down with my friend and fellow IFS enthusiast, Tammy Sollenberger, for a lively and heartfelt debrief. In true synchronicity, we somehow kept signing up for the same seminars—without ever comparing notes beforehand. We talk about our parts, our paths, and maybe a touch of destiny. Tammy opens up about what it's like to be an “IFS celebrity” (yes, we said it!) and the part of her that found it difficult to fully surrender as a participant in sessions while being so publicly known in the community. I share about my socially anxious parts and how they showed up throughout the conference, and together we explore how our systems reacted to the intensity, the beauty, and the vulnerability of being surrounded by hundreds of other parts and protectors in one big IFS field. I also share some clairvoyant messages that came through for both of us — intuitive nudges about healing, alignment, and the unexpected ways our friendship continues to unfold inside and outside the IFS community. This episode is a blend of reflection, laughter, emotional honesty, and gentle self-discovery — just what you'd expect from two friends who speak IFS fluently and love exploring the edges between psychology and soul.   What We Talk About How we kept accidentally attending all the same IFS conference seminars Tammy's experience of being an “IFS celebrity” and the protector that kept her from full vulnerability as a participant My socially anxious parts and how they showed up in crowded conference spaces The parts of us that got activated during the conference — and how we worked with them Our individual experiences as presenters Tammy's real-time vulnerability: sharing about her romantic breakup in her presentation and how her system responded Clairvoyant messages and intuitive insights that came through for both of us Takeaways, integration, and how the IFS model continues to deepen our friendships and inner awareness   About Tammy Sollenberger Tammy Sollenberger is an author, podcaster, and psychotherapist. She's a Certified IFS Therapist and Consultant who loves helping people new to IFS discover their Authentic Self.

Dr. Jim interviews Dr. Josh WilsonParenting is the only gig where you're expected to be a Zen monk, a crisis negotiator, and a part-time mediator — all before breakfast. In this episode of Shrinksrap, Dr. Jim Bramson sits down with Dr. Josh Wilson to explore mindful parenting through the lenses of IFS, ACT, and Imago —and, yes, how social media is both helping and wrecking us in equal measure. We dig into what it means to stay grounded when your kid is melting down in aisle 5 of Target, or when your teenager rolls their eyes so hard you worry they might sprain something. You'll hear about practical strategies, awkward confessions, and why “just breathe” sometimes translates to hiding in the bathroom with Oreos. From bedtime battles to Instagram pressures, this episode reminds us that mindful parenting isn't about perfection — it's about surviving the chaos with a little humor, a little compassion, and lot of curiosity, emotional maturity, self-awareness, and playfulness. After all, we want to stay lighthearted and unencumbered with PTSD (Playful Termination Stress Disorder).Credits:River is High, Ticketless TravelerCarl Reisman, guitar, singer, and songwriterJenny Goodwine, vocalsJames Singleton, bassJohnny Vidocovich, drumsDave Easley, steel guitarProduced by Morgan Orion Reismanfor more information, carlreisman@gmail.comCopyright 2025WCMI networking group A networking group for mindfulness-focused clinicians dedicated to learning together & collaborating for more information click here

Send us a textIn this powerful continuation of the Shadow Into Light series, host Andrea Atherton invites listeners into the heart of love's most hidden terrain — the shadow parts we carry into relationships. Building on the foundation of Episode One, Andrea weaves together the wisdom of Carl Jung's shadow and Dr. Richard Schwartz's Internal Family Systems model to illuminate how these disowned parts of ourselves show up in partnership. Far from being simply “bad behaviors,” these parts are protective, reactive, and deeply human, often surfacing as jealousy, criticism, withdrawal, or defensiveness.Through relatable examples and heartfelt reflections, Andrea reveals how these shadow parts collide in what she calls the shadow dance — the repeating cycles of conflict and projection that so many couples find themselves locked into. Listeners will discover how unresolved wounds from the past can magnify small moments into painful ruptures, and why arguments with a partner often feel more intense than the situation at hand. With compassion and clarity, Andrea shows that these patterns aren't signs of failure, but opportunities for self-discovery and growth.Ultimately, this episode is an invitation to see love not only as a mirror of our light, but also as a container for healing our shadows. Andrea guides listeners toward gentle practices for noticing when a “part” is activated and reminds us that every conflict is an opening to bring compassion where there was once blame. Episode 221 offers hope that by learning to meet our shadows with tenderness, we can shift from disconnection to deeper intimacy, transforming the shadow dance into a path of conscious love.30-minute Consultation with Andrea https://www.andreaatherton.com/booking-calendarAndrea Atherton Websitehttps://www.andreaatherton.com/Love Anarchy Websitehttps://www.andreaatherton.com/podcasthttps://loveanarchypodcast.buzzsprout.comLove Anarchy Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/loveanarchypodcast/Andrea Atherton Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/andreaatherton-17/

It is Marta's third career shift, becoming a psychotherapist, after 20 years in healthcare and having worked in academia before! Across this wide career and lived experience, she knew that she wanted to bring it all into her work in her private practice.  Additionally, Marta had been helped by many people when she was getting started, which is what encouraged her to pay it forward by offering supervision and mentorship to new and upcoming clinicians.  In this podcast episode, Marta and I discuss pivoting from full-time to work full-time in private practice, how to hire the right people, and how to maintain the soul of therapy within the growing business. Join us for a great conversation!  MEET MARTA Marta Evans, RP, M.Ed., C.C.C., is a psychotherapist and certified Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapist based in Hamilton, Ontario. She's the founder of Evans Family Counselling & Psychotherapy, a heart-led group practice specializing in transformational therapies like IFS and EMDR for individuals navigating complex trauma, grief, and life transitions. Known for her warm, authentic presence and “gentle but spicy” approach, Marta is a strong advocate for trauma-informed care that challenges the limitations of the traditional medical model. At EFCP, she and her team prioritize respectful, collaborative care that supports deep healing and change by addressing root causes rather than just managing symptoms. Learn more about Marta on her practice website, Psychology Today, and Facebook profiles.  In this episode:  Starting private practice Diversifying your experience  Building up a group practice  Marta's advice to listeners  Starting the private practice As Marta explains, being a psychotherapist is her third career. She worked for a long time in academia and as a radiation therapist in oncology before transitioning to psychotherapy.  With her private practice, Marta started it part-time initially before getting to the point where she had enough clients to move into working in the practice full-time.  She worked for some time in a group private practice while building up her own.  Diversifying your experience After Marta completed her Master's degree, and while she was building up her private practice and working in another group practice, she got as involved as she could over the span of about seven years - before going full private practice - to soak up as much experience as possible.  She knew that her degree was valuable, but that she simultaneously wanted to have a lot more experience under her belt, which can only be acquired through working directly with people.  Building up a group practice Marta developed her solo practice into a group practice in January 2024s. She decided to grow her private practice because she wanted to have a community of therapists around her, she wanted to stop turning clients away, and she wanted to start supervising and mentoring new clinicians.  Now, Marta has associates and mentees - she wants to help them nourish their passions and to provide an essential service that she herself benefited from. In a way, she's paying it forward. Marta's advice to listeners Slow is fast! Be intentional. Don't lose the soul of therapy by getting too caught up in the business aspects of running a private practice. Work closely with your values while heading closer to your goals.  Connect with me: Instagram Website  Resources mentioned and useful links: Kayleen Edwards: Private Practice Growth and Planning for Maternity Leave | EP 174  Learn more about the tools and deals that I love and use for my Canadian private practice Sign up for my free e-course on How to Start an Online Canadian Private Practice Jane App (use code FEARLESS for one month free) Get some help and freebies on your website with WordPress!  Learn more about Marta on her practice website, Psychology Today, and Facebook profiles  Rate, review, and subscribe to this podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon, and TuneIn

We all feel numb sometimes. Our numbing parts protect us from stress, pain, and overwhelm. But what happens when numbness lingers? As we kick off The One Inside's seventh season, Jeff and I share what we've learned about working with numbing parts. We led a workshop at the recent 2025 IFS Annual Conference called Why Check In When You Can Check Out: A Self-Led Approach to Numbing Parts. In this episode we walk you through the highlights of our workshop and share a few of the insights we brought home from the conference. We discuss: What I discovered about numbness, embodiment, and grief this past year Numb parts are “invisible protectors” and why simply naming the numb matters The compounding opportunity costs of numbing and what we miss when we spend too much time checked out The grief of emerging from numbness How numbness shows up across generations and cultures The NUMB framework we created for reconnecting with Self I keep returning to this slide from our deck: Our protectors think they're saving our lives, but sometimes they're quietly stealing our vitality. I share a lot about my numb season, and how naming the "nothing" became a game-changer. I hope as you listen you'll notice your own ways of checking in and checking out and name the places where numbness shows up for you.

I'm joined by psychotherapist and podcast host Dana Skaggs for a practical look at Internal Family Systems — a therapy model that helps explain why we so often feel like we're battling different voices inside our own heads.Dana breaks down what IFS is, how it can help you better understand your inner critic, and why recognizing your internal "parts" can be a powerful tool for navigating anxiety, boundaries, self-sabotage, and more.Whether you've never heard of Internal Family Systems or you're curious how it works in real life, Dana shares simple, relatable insights that can help you get to know yourself better and handle challenges with more clarity.Dana Skagg is a keynote presenter and licensed psychotherapist with over 17 years in private practice with a master's degree in clinical psychology. Learn more at https://danaskaggs.com/Connect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/danabskaggs-speaker/ Opening & Foundation:For anyone who's never heard of Internal Family Systems, can you explain what it is in simple terms?You've worked with a lot of different therapy models. What was it about IFS that really resonated with you and your clients?Getting Into the Model: 3. IFS talks about having different “parts” inside us — can you break down what that means? 4. One thing a lot of us experience is feeling like we have an inner critic, or we're battling competing voices. How does IFS help us make sense of those inner dynamics?Real-Life Application: 5. For someone who feels stuck or frustrated — maybe they want to make changes but keep self-sabotaging — how can IFS help them approach that differently? 6. You work with a lot of people on anxiety, trauma, and boundaries — where do you see IFS really shine in these areas? 7. How can someone start noticing or identifying their parts in day-to-day life, even if they're not in therapy?Common Misconceptions & Challenges: 8. Are there any common misunderstandings people have about IFS when they first start learning about it? 9. Does someone need to go to therapy to use IFS, or are there ways to start applying some of these ideas on your own?Boundaries Connection (optional bonus question since this is one of her big areas): 10. How do healthy boundaries connect with IFS work? Do certain parts of us tend to push back on setting or holding boundaries?Wrap-Up: 11. If someone is curious and wants to explore IFS more, where do you recommend they start? 12. Is there one thing you wish more people understood about their inner voice or their parts?Check out Esther's website for more about her speaking, coaching, book, and more: http://estheravant.com/Buy Esther's Book: To Your Health: https://a.co/d/iDG68qUEsther's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/esther.avantEsther's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/estheravant/Learn more about 1:1 health & weight loss coaching: https://madebymecoaching.com/coaching

In this episode, I sit down with one of my IFS mentors Chris Burris, LMFT, Senior Lead Trainer for the Internal Family Systems (IFS) Institute, to explore one of the most challenging and misunderstood aspects of our inner world: the inner critic. Chris shares his personal journey with IFS and how the model offers a radical permission to approach ourselves—and our parts—with more love, kindness, and curiosity. Together, we discuss: Why people are more than the behavior of their parts The nature of inner critic parts and why pushing them away doesn't work How cultural messages often teach us to fight or silence the inner critic, rather than befriend it Common “suck points” when working with critics in therapy The role of legacy burdens in shaping our inner critics What it means to carry the critical energy of others inside us The importance of following intuition in the healing process Practical exercises to begin befriending your inner critic on your own This conversation is both grounding and liberating, offering a compassionate reframe for anyone who struggles with self-judgment or harsh inner voices.   About Chris Burris: Chris Burris, M.Ed., LCMHCS, LMFT (he/him), is a Senior Lead Trainer for the Internal Family Systems Institute, providing Level II and III trainings worldwide. He has been an IFS Therapist since 1999 and a practicing psychotherapist since 1987.

Let's be real… when you're struggling with anxiety, panic, or feeling disconnected from your body, it's so easy to fall into the trap of chasing quick fixes. But what if the real magic comes from the simple, not-so-flashy stuff?In this episode, I'm joined by Courtney Kramer, an IFS and somatic therapist, and we're talking all about the foundational tools that actually help... like observation, naming your emotions, tuning into sensations, and building a deeper connection with your body. You know… the things that seem too boring or basic to be effective, but are totally life-changing when you stick with them.Courtney shares so beautifully about how slowing down, noticing, and reconnecting with yourself in gentle, sustainable ways can shift everything, especially when you're used to being stuck in your head or fighting your emotions.We chat about:Why healing often feels slow, repetitive, and… kinda boring (and why that's not a bad thing!)What it really means to build a relationship with your body and emotionsHow to use tools like the emotion wheel, sensations list, and observation in everyday lifeWhy pacing and permission are SO important when you're doing somatic workHow these practices build safety, trust, and confidence over timeThis conversation is full of validation, encouragement, and practical tools you can start using today, especially if you've been feeling overwhelmed or stuck in your healing journey.SIGN UP FOR PANIC TO PEACE HERE: https://www.ahealthypush.com/live-panic-to-peaceCHECK OUT MY MASTERCLASSES HERE AND START EXPERIENCING LOTS MORE PEACE, JOY, & FREEDOM: https://www.ahealthypush.com/anxiety-classesA HEALTHY PUSH INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/ahealthypush/GET THIS EPISODE'S SHOW NOTES: https://www.ahealthypush.com/post/the-non-sexy-somatic-practices-that-lead-to-real-healing-with-courtney-kramer

In this episode of Men of Influence, host Tim Holloway welcomes David Good, who shares his transformative journey through loss, grief, and social challenges to become a global connector of people. Diagnosed with Asperger's last year, David reflects on overcoming severe bullying, a career-ending car accident, and treatment-resistant depression following family losses in 2010. Hitting rock bottom in 2011, he found resilience through Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS), which helped him rebuild his life and discover a purpose in connecting others. From founding West Michigan Geeks to launching 47 global meetup chapters during the COVID lockdown, David's story culminated in being recognized as a Point of Light by the George H.W. Bush Points of Light organization.David emphasizes building psychological resilience by identifying a “why” stronger than pain, using mindfulness and grounding techniques to manage intense emotions, and celebrating small wins to counter negative thinking. He shares his “Friend Magnet Instant Connection Formula,” which uses feel-good questions and active listening to build rapport quickly. For men struggling with isolation or social anxiety, David advocates starting small by attending local meetups, embracing discomfort, and listening actively to foster meaningful connections. His mission now focuses on teaching soft skills to IT workers, helping them communicate effectively and manage emotions to thrive in professional and personal settings.Key Takeaways:Resilience Through Purpose: Find a “why” bigger than your pain to push through adversity, using tools like ACT for mindfulness and IFS to address subconscious barriers.Connection Over Isolation: Combat loneliness by attending small local events, starting with simple interactions, and using active listening to build relationships.Friend Magnet Formula: Ask open-ended, feel-good questions and listen actively to create positive emotional associations and foster quick connections.Celebrate Small Wins: Counter negative thinking by acknowledging every small victory, as supportive relationships are key to longevity and resilience.Actionable Step: Join a local meetup or Facebook group event with 20 or fewer people, say hi to the organizer, and practice asking one feel-good question like, “What have you been doing for fun lately?”“Your purpose will find you if you do the work. Celebrate every small win to combat negativity and build resilience.” - David GoodLearn more about Tim through the following links:FacebookPodcasting group

Welcome back to Construct Your Life! In this conversation, I sit down with my good friend Linda Galvan, a transformational facilitator and spiritual intuitive who helps people uncover and heal the hidden patterns holding them back. We dive into blind spots entrepreneurs don't even realize they carry, the connection between business struggles and family systems, and how money is really just energy that flows from wherever it chooses.This is a powerful talk on healing, identity, and creating the life you actually want.What You'll Learn in This Episode:- Unseen Patterns: How unresolved family dynamics quietly shape your business relationships and leadership style.- Healing & Entrepreneurship: Why doing deep inner work is essential if you want to truly thrive as an entrepreneur.- IFS, Parts Work & Acceptance: Lessons on embracing every part of yourself instead of fighting against them.- Redefining Grief: How grief shows up beyond death—like lost versions of ourselves, relationships, or dreams.- Money as Energy: A fresh perspective on wealth—why money flows from wherever it chooses, not just the limited sources we cling to.- Living in Alignment: The freedom that comes when you choose joy, creativity, and soul fulfillment over “safe” but toxic paths.Final Thoughts:Linda's wisdom is a reminder that our businesses and our lives are mirrors of our inner world. If we're stuck, blocked, or exhausted, the answer isn't always “work harder”—it's to pause, go deeper, and heal. Because when you shift, everything around you shifts too.If this episode sparked something in you, share it with someone who's ready to step into transformation, and don't forget to leave a review.

Original Air Date: July 5, 2022 We are deeply saddened to share the passing of Carmen Jimenez-Pride—a fellow SPTer, therapist, healer, and a beautiful example of what it means to live fully, expansively, authentically, and without playing small. Carmen left her mark in countless ways—through her innovative tools, creative resources, powerful trainings, books, advocacy, and her deeply healing presence. She poured her heart into supporting the play therapy community, always pushing the edges of what was possible with boldness, brilliance, and compassion. Her clients, colleagues, supervisees, trainees, and all who knew her were profoundly touched by her gifts. We hold them—and her loved ones—in our thoughts during this time. In her honor, we are resharing this powerful and inspiring conversation between Lisa and Carmen on integrating Internal Family Systems (IFS) into the playroom. Like Carmen's work, this episode continues to expand hearts and inspire play therapists around the world.

We explore the surprising compatibility of Internal Family Systems with a Thomistic understanding of the human person. The modern pioneer of parts work, Richard Schwartz, originator of IFS harmonizes with the medieval angelic doctor of the Church, St. Thomas Aquinas. Join Thomistic philosopher Dr. Anthony Flood, Catholic psychologist Dr. Eric Gudan and me, Dr. Peter, as we discuss how the goodness of IFS can be modified and grounded in the excellence of a Thomistic anthropology.   For the full video experience with all our visuals, gestures, and graphics, and for conversation and sharing in the comments section, check us out on our YouTube channel here:  www.youtube.com/@InteriorIntegration4Catholics

Podcast favorite Dr. Amelia Kelley is back on the show! Today we're unpacking something I know will resonate with so many of you: our trauma responses. Fight, flight, freeze, or fawn… we all have them. But what if instead of shaming ourselves for these responses, we learned to use them for our benefit? Amelia and I get into what each response actually looks like day-to-day, why they happen so quickly in the body, and how to bring more consciousness when they show up. We also explore ways to reframe them so they can become tools that work in your favor: turning fight into advocacy, flight into creativity, freeze into stillness, and fawn into compassion and service. ✨ Podcast episodes are available in two formats - audio and video! If you'd like to watch the video version of this episode, you can find it here.
