In this episode, I speak with Karen Sprinkel Ancelet about her path to integrating trauma-informed, psychedelic-assisted therapy into her clinical practice. Karen shares how, early in her career, she worked with families whose loved ones had been murdered by a serial killer. She found that the models she had been trained in were not enough to address the profound spiritual trauma her clients experienced as they struggled to make sense of such horrific loss. This realization led Karen to begin practicing Buddhism and eventually to live in Asia, where she deepened her understanding of human suffering. While working with people from Thailand and Tibet who had endured trauma, she witnessed how cultural perspectives shape the ways we make meaning out of tragedy and resilience. She also facilitated group therapy for child sexual abuse survivors, where she discovered that while some approaches were effective for certain individuals, they were not universally helpful. From these experiences, Karen came to conceptualize trauma as impacting the mind, body, and spirit, all of which must be addressed in healing. She describes her initial skepticism toward psychedelic therapies, coming from a place of purism, but shares how her perspective shifted as she learned more about their effectiveness. Immersing herself in advanced training and certification, Karen began working with clients using psychedelics in therapeutic contexts. Karen also discusses the breadth of her training across multiple trauma-healing approaches. She highlights Somatic modalities such as Somatic Experiencing, Hakomi, and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy; Desensitization-based methods like Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Brainspotting; and Parts models including Internal Family Systems (IFS), Voice Dialogue, and Ego State Therapy. She explains how client factors often determine which approach is the best fit for a given individual. Throughout our conversation, Karen emphasizes her commitment to helping clients heal from PTSD as efficiently as possible. This integrative vision inspired her book, The Thriving Self: A New Paradigm for Healing the Mind, Body and Spirit and Moving Beyond It, which offers clients a framework to move toward healing without spending years in therapy. Karen Sprinkel Ancelet, LMFT is a licensed psychotherapist with more than 30 years of clinical experience, practicing in California, Colorado, Oregon, Washington, and Michigan. She specializes in trauma-informed care and integrates a broad range of evidence-based modalities, including EMDR, Brainspotting, Somatic Experiencing, Internal Family Systems (Level 3), and HeartMath. Karen is also a Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) provider with advanced psychedelic training through MAPS, Fluence, and Three Cups. She graduated with a Certificate in Psychedelic-Assisted Therapies and Research from CIIS. In addition to her clinical practice, she serves as a consultant, educator, Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, and Continuing Education provider. A pivotal chapter in Karen's life was her time living in Asia, where she conducted her master's research on trauma healing following violent crimes in Tibet, Southeast Asia, and the United States. Deeply impacted by these findings, she returned to Asia for several years to further her exploration. Today, Karen weaves together the ancient wisdom of meditation and mindfulness with contemporary approaches such as EMDR, Brainspotting, Flash, EFT, IFS, and Somatic Experiencing to guide and support her clients in their healing journey.
In today's episode, I chat with David Hoffman, a lawyer, mediator, and a founding member of Boston Law Collaborative. David was named "Lawyer of the Year" in Boston, and he even teaches at Harvard! I love how he's using IFS to help people with conflict. We talk about how IFS has shifted his focus from getting people to settle, to helping them make Self-led choices. We discuss: How does a lawyer and mediator bring the language of parts into a legal setting? What is the "reasonable reason" behind "unreasonable behavior" in conflict? How can we make decisions from a place of "Self-led" wisdom rather than from our "gladiator parts?" How can simply naming a part change the dynamic of a conversation? David shares an example of how saying "there's a greedy part" shifted a negotiation for the better. How does the IFS model help us understand ambivalence and the "negotiation within" that happens before we even enter a conflict? "There's something we can do here to enable people to manage their conflicts more successfully and to be less fearful and less hateful in the world." —David Hoffman I absolutely loved getting to know David and I'm so glad he's bringing the IFS model to a new audience. He's also offering a new six-week IFS training for lawyers and mediators this fall through the IFS Institute with guest appearances by Dick Schwartz, Mke Elkin, and Fatimah Finney.

News, beaters, and brutal lessons—with details you can use. We hit the week's biggest off‑road stories (Stellantis earnings pain, ongoing 4xe overheating chatter, and Banks' Cummins grid‑heater fix), then stack an under‑$5K beater build list with real‑world pros/cons: axle strength, IFS vs. solid‑axle tradeoffs, gearing, cooling, parts costs, and where rust hides. You'll also get a practical day‑one upgrade checklist—tires, fluids, brakes, recovery points, and a $300 “don't‑get‑stuck” kit. Finally, we pause the fail clips and break down exactly what went wrong—bad rigging, unsafe anchors, no spotter, and throttle panic—and show the quick habits that keep you wheeling instead of wrenching.
In this gentle IFS (Internal Family Systems) meditation, you're invited to connect with a part of you that may still be holding on to a memory from the past. Whether it's a part that pushes you to stay busy or one that panics when you try to rest, this practice helps you approach it with curiosity—not judgment.You'll be guided to:Ground into your Self-energyNotice what part may be carrying a past experienceListen with compassion and offer gentle presenceNo need to fix anything—just be with what's here.This meditation is ideal for anyone exploring parts work, emotional healing, or spiritual growth through the IFS model.
In this episode of What Are You Made Of?, Mike “C-Roc” sits down with therapist and author Tammy Sollenberger for an insightful conversation on Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy and how understanding our “parts” can lead to deeper self-awareness and healing. Tammy shares how IFS views our inner world much like an external family system—different parts of us interact, sometimes in conflict, but ultimately all with the goal of protecting us. Drawing from her own life, Tammy opens up about personal experiences that shaped her career, including the loss she felt as a child and how IFS helped her reconnect with those younger parts of herself. She explains how these inner parts can both propel us forward and hold us back, and why curiosity, rather than suppression, is key to understanding them. Together, Mike "C-Roc" and Tammy explore the connection between past experiences and present behaviors, the role of self-awareness in overcoming limiting beliefs, and how embracing all parts of ourselves can lead to greater peace, joy, and authenticity. This is a powerful conversation for anyone looking to understand themselves on a deeper level and transform old patterns into new possibilities.Website-tammysollenberger.com Social Media Links/Handles:https://www.instagram.com/ifs.tammy/?hl=enhttps://theoneinside.substack.com/

In this episode of Unhooked, I'm joined by Tyson Adams, a trauma-informed IFS men's coach, somatic bodyworker, and psychedelic facilitator who overcame a 20-year porn addiction.

Mechelle WingleFounding Executive of The Wholeness NetworkI used to think I was just a mom—until unresolved trauma from my husband's childhood began to shake the foundation of our family. It nearly ended our marriage. The traditional paths didn't bring us the healing we needed, but through alternative therapies, deep personal work, and spiritual tools, we slowly found our way. What felt like everything falling apart was, in truth, my life coming together.That crisis became a catalyst for my own awakening. I turned inward, discovered the gifted healer within me, and began the long, sacred work of transformation. I got certified in multiple modalities of energy work, and intuitive practices, along with NLP and IFS—and I built a platform to help others access the same kind of healing.Today, I'm the founder of The Wholeness Network and creator of The Wholeness Library—an on-demand collection of teachings from global experts in emotional healing, spiritual development, and embodied wellness. From learning how to make a nourishing breakfast to activating your own healing hands, the Library is a toolkit for living more consciously and completely.I'd love to bring this conversation to your audience—because healing is possible, purpose is real, and wholeness is available to every one of us.Want to be a guest on Book 101 Review?

In this episode of the MindHealth360 Show, psychiatrist and trauma researcher Bessel van der Kolk, author of The Body Keeps the Score, joins Kirkland Newman for a powerful exploration of how trauma affects the brain, body and sense of self – and how healing can emerge through somatic, relational and neurobiological interventions. Drawing from decades of clinical and research experience, Dr. van der Kolk discusses how trauma disrupts core brain functions, creates enduring physiological patterns, and limits a person's ability to feel connected or safe. He emphasises the limitations of top-down, cognitive talk therapies alone, and highlights the critical role of bottom-up, body-based approaches to healing. Bessel illustrates the value of experiential practices – including EMDR, neurofeedback, yoga, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and psychedelic-assisted therapy – as ways to improve self-regulation, brain integration, and emotional processing. He also reflects on the essential role of human connection, joy, rhythm, and relational safety in recovery. This conversation will be especially valuable for clinicians, researchers, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of trauma and the integrative, whole-person approaches that can support healing. In this episode, you will learn: How trauma can create automatic patterns in brain and behavior, rooted in disrupted regulatory systems and rigid neural habits Why bottom-up therapies (movement, rhythm, body awareness) are often necessary to complement verbal psychotherapy How relational safety, rhythmic engagement, and movement can calm the nervous system and support healing The significance of EMDR, neurofeedback, and IFS in reconnecting different brain regions and improving emotional regulation Why trauma recovery is about restoring agency, self-awareness, and connection – not simply revisiting traumatic memories How early neglect and lack of secure attachment affect development, social engagement, and physiological resilience Why psychedelics (such as MDMA) show strong potential in expanding neuroplasticity and opening up new therapeutic possibilities How creativity, play, and joy are central – not optional – to sustainable healing and growth The importance of broadening trauma treatment beyond medication and talk therapy to include embodied, relational, and community-based approaches

On this transformative episode of “Strong Mind, Strong Body,” host Angie Miller invites you to take a deep dive into your inner world and revolutionize the way you approach fitness, nutrition, and wellness. Angie explores the powerful framework of Internal Family Systems (IFS) and unpacks how the different “parts” of our personality can both protect us and hold us back—especially when it comes to making positive lifestyle changes. Ever wondered why your motivation soars on some days and plummets on others? Or why self-sabotage creeps in, despite your best intentions? Angie shares personal stories from her IFS training and reveals that conflicting emotions are not flaws, but protective parts that want the best for you in their own ways. From perfectionist managers and rebellious firefighters to vulnerable exiles, you'll recognize these internal voices and understand their roles in your journey. This episode equips you with compassionate, practical tools to shift your inner dialogue from self-criticism to curiosity. Angie breaks down actionable steps, like practicing check-in questions, reframing self-sabotage as protection, and embracing “both/and” thinking to hold multiple truths at once. Whether you're looking to show up better for yourself or support your clients more effectively, you'll walk away empowered to lead with self-compassion and a deeper understanding of human behavior.

In this episode of Sea Views, hosts Julia Gosling and Adam Parnell are joined by Alan McCullough, Coordinator of the International Fund for Fishing Safety (IFS), for a follow-up conversation on global fishing safety. Since its launch at I Fish 6 in Rome earlier this year, IFS has begun delivering targeted grants that are already making a difference — with life-saving initiatives now underway in Ghana, Kenya, Thailand, South Africa, Vietnam, and Fiji. Alan shares early results, the strategy behind the fund's deployment, and the broader ripple effects for fisher welfare, sustainability, and the future of small-scale fisheries. This is a vital episode for anyone working in, funding, or regulating the fishing sector — and a strong reminder that small investments in safety can yield enormous global impact.
Is your nervous system keeping you stuck in old patterns and narratives? Josh Trent welcomes Sarah Baldwin, Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, to the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 763, to reveal how we “time travel” through our autonomic nervous system, reacting to past experiences instead of living in the present, and how we can regulate our nervous system, heal generational wounds, and create deep, authentic connection by loving our parts into wholeness.
With PAST TENSE: Facing Family Secrets and Finding Myself In Therapy (Avery), cartoonist Sacha Mardou brings us a phenomenal graphic memoir about the midlife process of overcoming lifelong traumas and anxiety. We talk about her decision to to make her therapy process (& sessions) public, first as online comics and then as a Past Tense, the benefits of the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model, what it took to violate the English stiff upper lip and admit that she had problems and needed therapy, and her mother's Jehovah Witness conversion and how she's still sifting through the damage of that. We get into how therapy changed her relationship to her daughter, why corniness is no reason to avoid addressing/admitting one's inner child (and the work I needed to do to truly appreciate Past Tense), the strong, supportive and sympathetic public response to her online therapy comics and how she wound up going back to her therapist to deal with the shame-cycle of that, and how her families (and therapists) feel about seeing themselves in the book. We also discuss Sacha's indy comics upbringing, her marriage to fellow cartoonist Ted May and whether that means her daughter has any hope for a non-cartooning career, how she feels like her art is always catching up to her writing, how we feel about Gen X getting overlooked, her Doris Lessing binge during perimenopause, and a lot more.

Both Socrates and Plato were deeply concerned with the questions 1) Who is the human person? and 2) How does one flourish in living the best life possible. And both addressed these questions through understanding a person's relationship with self. Knowing oneself, loving oneself, and governing oneself wisely are the core of their teaching on virtues and ethics. All three of those imply a relationship oneself. We explore the “parts of the soul” that Socrates and Plato proposed, and how these parts interact in the inner life. Join Catholic Thomistic philosopher Dr. Anthony Flood, Catholic psychologist Dr. Eric Gudan and me, Dr. Peter, as we explore Plato's five forms of self-governance, and which parts of the soul are in charge in each of them, connecting each one to an IFS understanding of inner dynamics.

In this podcast, Lisa meets with Internal Family Systems (IFS) practitioner and Certified Health Education Specialist (CHES), Manya Ronay. Together they discuss a comprehensive approach to nutrition that integrates balanced dietary practices with emotional well-being. They address emotional eating, stress management, and the use of Internal Family Systems to balance dietary choices.Topics Include:Intuitive EatingFood Industry IFS FrameworkEmotional EatingIntentional Weight Loss Strategies[:35] Lisa encourages listeners to sign up for the final group coaching cohort starting in September and the Reclaiming Peace With Food Retreat at the Omega Institute from September 7-12, 2025.[10:22] Manya introduces herself as a certified health educator, nutrition specialist, and practitioner trained in internal family systems, underscoring a commitment to nuanced health and eating narratives. Lisa encourages listeners to listen to the previous podcast episode with Manya. Lisa and Manya discuss nutritional science and its diverse expert opinions, political influences, and constant evolution. [15:14] Lisa discusses how her approach to food intake is like managing a financial budget, where understanding caloric surplus and deficit plays a key role. She explains how this method allows her to be aware of the calories in food without succumbing to judgment or rigidity, allowing for informed choices to maintain weight balance. [22:00] Manya expresses caution about the potential pitfalls of anti-diet and intuitive eating messages, how they gaslight by promoting absolute freedom from food monitoring. Lisa and Manya discuss the value of mindful eating, how balance is necessary to avoid counterproductive outcomes. [28:25] Manya discusses Kevin Hall's experiment that showed that ultra-processed meals led to higher calorie consumption, while real foods increased satiety and reduced caloric intake, resulting in weight loss. Lisa discusses how her approach to maintaining her weight loss is eating for volume and choosing high-nutrient, low-calorie foods over calorie-dense, low-volume options.[49:30] Lisa and Manya discuss how her living in an environment of high stress has led to her using food to gain a sense of comfort and safety. They discuss how Manya should shift to managing stress and embracing embodied safety will help her with her intentional weight loss without a diet mentality. Manya talks about how the IFS framework is used to balance contrasting inner parts: firefighters, representing the urge to eat for comfort, and managers, which impose boundaries. Lisa and Manya explain how this integration supports healthy eating decisions while honoring the positive intention of every inner part.[1:18:56] Lisa and Manya wrap up the episode by discussing how listeners can learn more about Manya and connect at: Website | Instagram | Facebook | LinkedIn. *The views of podcast guests do not necessarily reflect the views and beliefs of Lisa Schlosberg or Out of the Cave, LLC.Purchase the OOTC book of 50 Journal PromptsLeave Questions and Feedback for Lisa via OOTC Pod Feedback Form Email Lisa: lisa@lisaschlosberg.comOut of the Cave Merch - For 10% off use code SCHLOS10Lisa's SocialsInstagram Facebook YouTubeReclaiming Peace With Food Retreat at the Omega Institute - September 7-12, 2025
Are you yearning to overcome struggles like perfectionism, laziness, or addiction? Join me for an exploration of Internal Family Systems (IFS), a therapeutic approach developed by Dr. Richard C. Schwartz. Discover how IFS can transform your relationship with yourself by acknowledging and understanding all aspects of who you are. Learn how to replace inner conflict with self-compassion, reclaiming your power and reconnecting with your joyful, playful self. Tune in now to start your journey of healing and self-discovery with IFS.
In this heartful and energizing conversation, we sit down with the incredible Natalie Deering—therapist, podcast host, IFS practitioner, and authenticity advocate—to explore the beautiful intersections between healing, creativity, and connection. Natalie shares the story of how she first discovered Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy and how it's become not just a modality but a life practice. We also dive into what inspired her to launch her own podcast, That Wellness Podcast with Natalie Deering, and how stepping into that space has allowed her to embrace vulnerability, creativity, and impact in new ways. Together, we explore the metaphor of mountain climbing to describe the IFS journey: how each part of us is like a climber trying to ascend, and Self-energy serves as both the rope and the steady presence that anchors and guides the climb. As Natalie puts it, “It's not just about getting to the top of the mountain. It's the journey.” We also talk about Natalie's current writing project—a forthcoming book that weaves together our nervous systems, and IFS to better understand anxiety-and her personal journey through this. Her vision is to offer readers a compassionate, integrative framework that helps them befriend their anxious parts and move toward greater safety and connection in their bodies and lives. Whether you're a therapist, creative, or just someone walking your own healing path, you'll find inspiration in how Natalie approaches life and work with openness, grounded care, and humor.

On this week's episode, I welcome Bob Falconer, Chelsea Odhner, and Jonathan Rose, the co-authors of the new book, Opening the Inner World. We dive into what it means to be both spiritual and plural. If you've ever found yourself wondering how inner work and spiritual seeking overlap, this episode is for you. We explore: What happens when we bring the language of parts into our spiritual lives? Can the concept of "Self Energy" connect with notions of divine presence? How does the idea of God resonate differently for various people and their inner parts? How can IFS be a deeply spiritual path without becoming dogmatic? What do we do when belief itself feels like a burden or triggers our inner system? Favorite Quotes: “When people bring in a spiritual experience or a spiritual concept, I don't want to assume that I know what that means for them.” —Bob Falconer “Sometimes in spiritual direction, a part is the one that's praying. And that prayer needs to be honored and held and heard.” —Chelsea Odhner Find their book here: Opening the Inner World Episode Sponsor: This episode is sponsored by Pisgah Coaching Institute.

There are many different religious and cultural traditions and concepts that help us understand what I'm referring to today as the SELF. This is the term used in the Internal Family Systems approach (IFS) to describe our inner being, essence, soul, or spirit. Find out:What SELF (yes, in all caps) is and how it helps you heal from withinHow to know when you're accessing your core SELF (and how to get back to it when you're not)Strategies for finding and accessing your core SELFCheck in questions you can use to reconnect with SELFIn this episode, you'll learn about finding your SELF so that you can live from a place of peace and strength.---------------------------------------------------The concept of SELF reminds us that we are not our pain, our personality, or our behavior strategies. We are something else entirely. At our core, we are pure and unwounded. But as we go through life and get hurt, we become disconnected from that core SELF. We develop maladaptive behavior strategies to help us deal with that burden and pain. We lash out at people. We hurt ourselves and others.In order to be a Calm Mama, you need to be able to tap into the calm that lives within you. You need to tap into your inner wisdom so that you can respond instead of react. Finding Your SELFThink about a time in your life when you felt very calm or loving, or you stayed really grounded during a tough situation. Your mind isn't spinning. You're not thinking or worrying about all the things you need to do or what might happen later or money or your body or whether people like you…See if you can feel this in your body. Maybe you feel a gentle weight in your belly, like you're sitting more grounded. Maybe you notice a lightness in your chest and head, softness in your shoulders and neck. You're breathing a little deeper and easier. Your core SELF's intention is to heal you and to give you more and more access to that SELF. Here's how to reconnect. Notice when you aren't in your SELF EnergyIFS gives us the 8 Cs of the SELF: Curiosity, calm, confidence, compassion, creativity, clarity, courage, and connectedness. If you feel any of these (and especially if you feel more than one), you're likely connected to your SELF.When you are disconnected from SELF and in your wounded energy, you might notice yourself feeling panicked, anxious, stressed, insecure, or judgmental. Take a Pause BreakThis is a tool I teach a lot. It's simply taking a moment to slow down time. Buying yourself a few seconds so you can get ahead of the next moment instead of reacting to it. Getting to a place where you can respond slowly. When you see everything as an emergency that you need to respond to right away, you get sucked into the drama and overwhelm. You get into fix it/change it/stop it/solve it mode. When you want to jump in and control things - that's not your core SELF reacting. It's your wounded parts, your ego, your fear, and your stress.I truly believe that even 10 seconds can help you settle your nervous system and feel more calm. Get into your bodyNotice the feelings in your body. One thing that really helps me is to lay flat down on the ground with my arms and legs extended (similar to Savasana in yoga). I remind myself that the earth can hold me, and I feel my body relax and release. A body scan is another helpful technique. Visualize each part of your body - from your toes up to the top of your head - recognizing and feeling each part as you go.If you'd...

This short solo episode is a real talk based on insights from his recent conversation with IFS practitioner and ADHD coach Jamie Blume.

That Wellness Podcast with Natalie Deering: Internal Family Systems with a Twist
In this episode I sit down with Heather Smith—Certified IFS therapist and founder of The Moxie School®—to explore the profound intersection of Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy and psychedelic-assisted healing. Heather shares her deeply personal path into both IFS and psychedelics, sparked by a lifelong inquiry: How do people truly heal? Together, we dive into the ways psychedelic experiences can deepen parts work, the essential role of Self-energy in lasting transformation, and why healing doesn't come from the medicine—but from within. _________________________ We Explore: Heather's journey into IFS and expanded states of consciousness The deep synergy between IFS and psychedelics How MDMA can amplify Self-energy The power of witnessing parts in altered states Why preparation is non-negotiable before a medicine journey The consequences of skipping the prep and integration process The role of the IFS Self-led guide in enhancing psychedelic journeys What “integration” really means—and why it's the completion, not the afterthought The myth that the medicine does the healing (hint: it's your Self that does) Whether you're a seasoned guide or curious about combining inner parts work with psychedelic tools, this episode is a must-listen. _______________________ About Heather Smith Heather Smith is a visionary in the field of psychedelic healing, uniquely bridging Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy with expanded states of consciousness. A Certified IFS therapist (Levels 1–3) and frequent Program Assistant, Heather is the founder of The Moxie School®, where she trains facilitators in IFS-informed psychedelic support.

André, The Impulsive Thinker™, sits down with Jamie Blume, an IFS and IFIO practitioner, ADHD and life coach, to break down Internal Family Systems (IFS) and how it can help ADHD Entrepreneurs move past emotional dysregulation. They explore why feeling “broken” isn't about you, but about protective patterns shaped by your brain wiring and childhood experience. Jamie explains the roles of “parts” like managers, firefighters, and exiles—and how understanding them opens new ways to manage reactions and self-criticism. If you've ever felt stuck in old patterns or negative loops, this episode gives you language and tools to shift that story.
Send us a textWhat happens when you combine military experience, personal recovery, cutting-edge trauma therapies, and the healing power of nature? Beau Laviolette's remarkable journey answers this question through a story of transformation and purpose.From the sugar cane fields of Louisiana to the Marine Corps and back again, Beau's path wasn't straightforward. After military service ended unexpectedly due to seizures, he faced addiction struggles that eventually led him to recovery and a calling to help others. This deeply personal experience became the foundation for his approach to trauma healing, combining Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) with Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy using the Syzyge method.Beau takes us through his discovery of these powerful modalities and how they complement each other, particularly when working with complex trauma. While EMDR helps process traumatic memories, IFS provides the framework to understand the protective parts of ourselves that develop in response to trauma. This combination creates a comprehensive approach that addresses both neurobiological and psychological aspects of trauma recovery.The conversation ventures into fascinating territory as Beau describes his veteran-focused nature retreats. These immersive experiences take healing beyond the constraints of office therapy, allowing veterans to "unplug, connect, and let go" in natural settings. He explains how nature inherently contains qualities that facilitate access to what IFS calls "self-energy" – our core self characterized by compassion, curiosity, and calm.Developing Meaning is NOT AFFILIATED WITH ANY INSTITUTIONS and is NOT INTENDED AS MEDICAL ADVICE.Theme Music by The Thrashing Skumz.Produced by Dirk Winter MD PhD and brought to you by Consilient Mind LLC.

Years ago, I was talking to a client about what it truly means to be a Calm Mama. And she realized that the absence of yelling ≠ calm. There is something deeper that we're working toward. An inner wisdom, inner peace, and knowing that you can handle anything that comes along. There might be a lot of chaos around you, but inside you are calm and steady.Today, we begin a new 3-part series on Internal Family Systems (IFS) - a therapeutic model created by Richard Schwartz. One of the central concepts is that everything you need for deep healing and wisdom are already within you.You'll Learn:The 4 parts of Internal Family Systems and how they go togetherHow we get stuck in past pain and traumaExamples of burdens you might be carrying from childhood (and how I'm working through some of my own)How to befriend your core SelfListen to find out how IFS works and how you can use it to move into Self-led energy and feel more peace.-------------------------------------------Why Does Your Peace Matter?We talk about this a lot on the podcast, but in case you're new to my world (or need a quick refresher), there are a lot of reasons that being calm matters as a parent. The big picture is about raising our children in emotionally healthy families so that they grow up to be emotionally healthy adults.This looks like:Letting our kids experience their negative emotionsBeing able to witness their emotional pain without getting upset about their big feelings or behaviorsCommunicating to your kid that they are going to be okayLetting your child know that they are safe and loved, no matter what is happeningWhen we try to prevent our kids from experiencing or expressing negative emotion by over-protecting, over-planning, over-organizing, or bypassing that emotion, we're actually creating little micro wounds in our kids. They are learning to shut down their own feelings, which is not what we want.In order to be able to do the things our kids need for emotional health, we often need to reparent ourselves and heal our own emotional wounds. Maybe there were times when you were told that you weren't good enough, or that you didn't matter, or that the way you felt didn't matter. In order to feel truly at peace, we have to believe that we are loved, safe, worthy, and that we're going to be okay, too.This is much easier said than done. So, how do we get to that place of deep, legit calm? 4 Parts of the Internal Family SystemFeelings drive behavior. And when we don't know what to do with our feelings, we act them out in behaviors or strategies that we think will protect us from pain or help us deal with pain when it comes up.When we're acting from our wounded parts, we act in ways that might hurt us or others. The goal is to act from our whole, healed, healthy parts - the Self. The Self is an embodied sense of who you are at your core - without any pain or wounds. We all come into this world pure and filled with joy, ready to experience all the things in life that come. At our core, what we want to feel is peace.But then the world steps in. We experience all kinds of discomfort, and if we don't get to express and process it, it can get stuck within us. Internal Family Systems (IFS) is an approach to healing that identifies the wounded parts of you, as well as the whole, not wounded parts of you. And it helps you to build a relationship between your core Self and those wounded parts so that they can heal, have a sense of wholeness and become what we call “unburdened”.Imagine your internal family as your core Self, plus the other parts of you that are related to your Self and your pain (aka burden). There are...

In today's episode, I talk with Michael and Leela Hunter, the creators of UpSpiral Life — a year-long program and community that combines IFS, manifestation, and neurofeedback. We explore what manifestation really means through an IFS lens, how subconscious parts shape our experience, and why “feeling good” is a nervous system state we can track and train.
