What happens when an AI system moves beyond generating answers and begins influencing machinery, maintenance schedules, technician dispatch, and safety? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I speak with Bob De Caux, Chief AI Officer at IFS, about moving industrial AI from promising pilots into dependable production deployments. Bob explains why access to advanced models is no longer the main obstacle. Successful enterprise AI depends on understanding the processes, operational logic, metadata, and boundaries surrounding each decision. An AI system ordering a replacement bearing for a wind turbine must meet a very different standard from one generating a nursery rhyme. We hear how IFS customer Kodiak Gas is using a digital worker to support material replenishment. According to Bob, the company projects approximately $3 million in annual return and 90,000 hours returned to technicians for higher-value work. Our conversation also covers AI sovereignty. Bob argues that sovereignty means retaining control over data, decisions, providers, and the ability to keep operating under changing circumstances. He compares the technology layer to a duck paddling furiously beneath calm water. Models may change rapidly, while the operational application above them must remain stable, tested, and auditable. We discuss staged autonomy as a way to earn worker confidence, beginning with manual questions, progressing to recommendations, and granting greater authority only after consistent performance. Bob also explains why agents need identities, permissions, defined roles, separation of duties, sponsors, and complete audit trails. Accountability remains with the organization deploying the system. In an industrial environment, an agent can produce a harmful action rather than an inaccurate answer. Even after 999 successful decisions, the thousandth can carry catastrophic consequences. Is your organization measuring AI through pilot counts, or through uptime, cost, technician capacity, turnaround time, and safety? Listen to the conversation and share your thoughts with me.

In this episode, I sit down with Kay Gardner, one of the original “mothers” of Internal Family Systems (IFS), to discuss her new book, Calling Ourselves Back Home: The Spiritual and Energetic Lens of IFS. Kay shares her journey with IFS and what it has been like to finally take the “lid” off the spiritual and intuitive aspects of her work. We explore legacy and cultural burdens, the historical oppression of the divine feminine, and how these burdens can impact our ability to trust and express our intuition. We also talk about the power of imagination, reconnecting with our innate intuitive nature, and what it means to remember the spirituality that has always been within us. Kay and I dive into guides—what they are, how we might notice them, and how they can support our journey. And in a fun and unexpected moment, we discover that Kay and I share a guide!   In This Episode: Kay's origin story with IFS Legacy and cultural burdens The divine feminine, intuition, and imagination Reclaiming our intuitive and spiritual nature The cultural fear of speaking our intuitive knowing aloud Connecting with guides and noticing their presence Kay's new book, Calling Ourselves Back Home   Connect with Kay: Website Book: Calling Ourselves Back Home: The Spiritual and Energetic Lens of IFS   ________________________________ ✨ NEW THIS FALL: IFS + INTUITION + SPIRITUALITY CONSULTATION GROUP ✨ I'm offering a monthly consultation group for IFS providers who are curious about exploring the spiritual and intuitive dimensions of IFS work—both within our own inner work and with our clients. Topics May Include: ✨ Intuition & the 6 Clairs ✨ Connecting with Spirit, guides & guardian angels ✨ Ancestors ✨ Past lives ✨ Unattached burdens ✨ Spiritual experiences that arise through parts work ✨ How intuition may weave into our work with clients ✨ How we discern intuitive information from parts, projections, or other experiences My hope is that this becomes a space where we can be curious, open, grounded, and discerning—without feeling like we have to have all the answers.

The Dean's List with Host Dean Bowen – Brad Wilcox, Senior Fellow at IFS, said the report looked at “whether or not kids are being raised by their own mother and father.” They found that family structure was often a more important factor in children's well-being. “It's pretty clear that the character of the family you grew up in is more important than the color of your skin,”

In this episode, Lisa continues the deep work of intentional weight loss by expanding the conversation around anger, shame, rupture, repair, innocence, and internal safety. She revisits the previous episode's teaching on allowing anger without withdrawing love, showing how this becomes essential when you “blow past a boundary” or act out of alignment. She connects this to couples therapy, pets, children, and Internal Family Systems (IFS), illustrating how conflict is not a red flag; the absence of repair is. Lisa then explores the cultural conditioning around impact vs. intention, contrasting how society often punishes impact while internal healing requires honoring intention. She shares personal stories to show how innocence, intention, and misunderstood power shape self‑trust.Topics Include:Anger is AllowedShame SpiralsIFSSelf Trust[1:30] Lisa teaches that moments of anger or disappointment are inevitable, and the work is allowing those emotions without collapsing into shame. She describes how judging yourself after a misstep is like pouring gasoline on a fire, creating an unsafe internal environment that undermines long‑term goals. She frames tender self‑compassion as the stabilizing force that restores safety, connection, and alignment after moments of misalignment.[6:16] Lisa shows that both rigid diet‑culture judgment and anti‑diet avoidance bypass honest acknowledgment of tension, and she reframes conflict as a healthy part of self‑relationship. She uses practical analogies to normalize the coexistence of anger and love, teaching listeners to maintain connection with themselves while addressing the consequences of their actions.[11:09] Lisa teaches that every internal part is well‑intentioned and fundamentally good, echoing Dick Schwartz's IFS framework. She shows that approaching parts with curiosity rather than shame creates the internal safety required for real change, and she reframes intention as the key to collaboration.[20:36] Lisa shares how external judgment once framed her as unsafe to help others while recovering from disordered eating, and how she reclaimed trust by returning to her own benevolent intention. She illustrates how culture teaches people to fear their own power; the work is not eliminating that power but learning to channel it safely.[46:40] Lisa explains how pity masquerading as compassion or people‑pleasing masquerading as kindness can derail healing by imitating the real thing. She teaches that healing requires transformed consciousness, not the avoidance of behaviors that once accompanied shame.[49:01] Lisa warns against rejecting supportive behaviors just because they resemble past unhealthy patterns, emphasizing that the energy behind the action is what matters. She reframes the old diet‑culture mantra “nothing tastes as good as skinny feels” into “nothing tastes as good as staying in alignment with myself feels.”[49:57] Lisa teaches that actions like eating a salad, skipping dessert, or tracking calories only gain meaning from the energy behind them. She shows how the same behavior can be self‑punishment rooted in shame or self‑care aligned with long‑term values.[53:42] Lisa explains that when she views her intention as good, she becomes someone she can work with; when she sees herself as guilty, she becomes someone she cannot trust.[1:04:50] Lisa explains that food noise exists on a spectrum and that true freedom is not the absence of thinking about food but the absence of fear around structure and accountability. She uses the near‑enemy lens to reveal how equating structure with dieting or accountability with shame blocks healing.⁠Join Us on Patreon!⁠ ⁠LISA IS NOW ACCEPTING: One-on-One Clients!⁠⁠⁠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 Socials: ⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠ ⁠YouTube⁠⁠

Why does it sometimes feel like different parts of us are pulling in opposite directions? How do we begin to notice, understand, and care for the parts of ourselves that are trying to cope with pain, loss, and grief?For psychologist and author Dr. Audrey Davidheiser, understanding Internal Family Systems (IFS) has transformed both her personal and professional journey. Through her own experiences—including the loss of her father—and years of helping others navigate grief, she has seen how IFS offers a compassionate framework for understanding the many parts that make up our inner world. Rather than viewing these parts as problems to be fixed, IFS invites us to approach them with curiosity, compassion, and care, recognizing that each part is often trying to protect us or help us survive difficult experiences. In her book, Grieving Wholeheartedly: Bringing Healing to Every Part of Your Soul, Dr. Davidheiser explores how the principles of IFS can be applied to the grieving process through a thoughtful Christian lens, offering practical tools for healing and growth.In this conversation, Davey and Dr. Davidheiser discuss what Internal Family Systems is, how different parts can emerge in response to grief and hardship, and how understanding these parts can help us move toward deeper healing and wholeness.If you've ever felt torn between conflicting emotions, wondered why one part of you wants to move forward while another wants to hold back, or struggled to make sense of your reactions in seasons of loss, this episode will encourage you to approach yourself with greater compassion. You'll discover that every part of you has a story to tell, and that through the healing presence of Jesus, those parts can be understood, cared for, and brought toward greater wholeness.

Brian Jaudon is back on the podcast to help us wrap up Season 7. We talk about soul alignment, what it means to organize your life around your divine essence, and what happens when a chapter closes and something new wants to emerge.  Takeaways The question Brian has asked clients for 30 years: what has your life been organized around, and what would you like to reorganize it around? Invitation is a spiritual state. Have you invited what you want into your consciousness, your body, and your whole being? Soul misalignment shows up as a felt sense, and the body knows when something is off Once you've experienced a state of consciousness, you have access to it Live into what is and what wants to be, not what was or what should be Anything not aligned with your divine essence will surface to be examined, released, or renegotiated Brian's medicine journey revelation: we get to exist on this planet without being of service; we can choose how we want to show up and share our gifts with the world Relationship first, task second About Brian Brian Jaudon is a sacred witness to the divine unfolding of one's life.

What happens when your body forces you to slow down? In this episode, I sit down with therapist Hannah Smith for a deeply honest conversation about her unexpected experience with three strokes—and the profound personal and professional lessons that emerged from her healing journey. Hannah shares what the experience taught her about the costs of striving and productivity culture, the importance of listening to our bodies, accepting help, and allowing ourselves to rest. We also talk about the incredible support she received from her physical therapist and how community became an essential part of her healing. As an EMDR- and IFS-informed therapist specializing in women's mental health, Hannah also shares how volunteering during an EMDR training unexpectedly shifted the trajectory of her healing and how integrating EMDR and IFS supported her recovery. Together, we explore what it means for therapists to do their own inner work, recognize when we're overriding our needs, and create more space for rest, connection, and nervous-system regulation. In This Episode We Explore: Hannah's experience of having three strokes and the unexpected impact on her life The silver lining of being forced to slow down Productivity and striving culture—and the pressure to always be doing more Learning to listen to the body and recognize our needs The importance of rest and downtime for the nervous system Letting go of the belief that we have to do everything ourselves The healing power of accepting help and community The unexpected role of an EMDR training in Hannah's healing How EMDR and IFS worked together in her recovery Why therapists need to prioritize their own inner work Lessons Hannah learned personally and professionally through her experience Creating a life that allows for more rest, support, and authenticity About Hannah Smith Hannah Smith is a Cincinnati-area therapist specializing in women's mental health.

Most of us were taught to treat emotions like distress, numbness, and burnout as private failings to manage and move past, rather than normal responses to living within a world full of crises. The unintended result is a distrust in our own bodies and mind, further leading to more confusion about what is 'normal.' One framework offers a potential path to living in harmony with all of the mind's distinct parts, breaking the defensive and counterproductive loops we tend to get stuck in. What sort of systemic ripples might become possible if we stop trying to smother uncomfortable parts of ourselves, and begin embracing them as critical pieces of our own mental ecologies? In this episode, Nate is joined by Dr. Richard C. Schwartz, the therapist who developed Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Steffi Bednarek, a climate psychologist applying that same model to organizations, governments, and culture at large. Dick walks through the origins of IFS, which describes the mind as naturally made up of "parts" – protectors and exiles – with their own histories, fears, and roles, which are all held by an underlying "Self." Steffi extends the model outward to show how institutions and even entire countries can be read as systems of exiles and protectors, and shares how she uses IFS with governments, financial institutions, and wealth holders to defuse shame and effectively guide toward pro-social behavioral change. Together, they explore why healing our relationship to our own most despised parts may be inseparable from healing our relationship to the rest of the living world. How can looking inward to our own thought processes and patterns help us better understand and relate to others, especially those whose behavior we find hardest to accept? As we continue through challenging times, how can we balance critical physical and policy work with the internal work of healing our relationship to the mental parts we shy away from? And would our decisions and actions change if more and more humans began to lead from curiosity and compassion, instead of fear, and could that be enough to shift the larger system? (Conversation recorded on August 5th, 2026)   About Richard C. Schwartz: Richard C. Schwartz, PhD, is the creator of Internal Family Systems, a highly effective, therapeutic model with a growing evidence base, that de-pathologizes the multi-part personality. Richard is also the Founder of the IFS Institute that primarily offers training for professionals. He is currently a Teaching Associate in Psychiatry, at Cambridge Health Alliance, a Harvard Medical School teaching affiliate. Richard has authored or co-authored more than ten books on Internal Family Systems and related topics, including No Bad Parts and Internal Family Systems Therapy. He lives near Chicago with his wife Jeanne, Vice President of the IFS Institute, close to his three daughters and six grandchildren.   About Steffi Bednarek: Steffi Bednarek is a gestalt psychotherapist, trauma therapist, and climate psychologist. Her work explores the interface between climate change and mental health. With twenty-five years of experience in depth psychology, complexity thinking, climate psychology, and grief tending, Bednarek has worked for national governments and global institutions to prepare leaders and organizations for the psychological dimension of climate change in decision-making processes. Her work has been featured in the Huffington Post, BBC, David Milliband's "Reasons to be cheerful" podcast and numerous international publications. She is the co-founder of "Explorations into Climate Psychology" journal and an associate member of the American Psychological Association's climate change group.   Show Notes and More   Watch this video episode on YouTube   Want to learn the broad overview of The Great Simplification in 30 minutes?

Shame might be the silent architect behind our biggest relationship struggles—fueling secrecy, driving distance, and making genuine intimacy feel just out of reach. When the fear of rejection or not being enough sneaks in, it often keeps us locked in painful cycles of criticism, defensiveness, and disconnect. But what if the way we react to shame is the very thing sabotaging our deepest connections? In this episode, the discussion dives into how shame operates beneath the surface of issues like betrayal, addiction, and disconnection, and offers concrete strategies for transforming these patterns. Through personal stories, therapeutic insights, and powerful principles such as courage, context, and compassion, listeners are guided in breaking free from shame's grip. The conversation also explores practical ways to practice vulnerability, build safety, and foster more authentic connections—both with ourselves and our partners. Brannon Patrick, LCSW, and Tyler Patrick, LMFT, are brothers and licensed clinicians who help individuals and couples heal after infidelity, addiction, and the trust rupture that follows. With 20+ years each in addiction and trauma work, they bring both depth and straight talk, translating complex psychology into practical next steps people can use immediately. Together, they host The Therapy Brothers, a weekly call-in show where real people work through betrayal, shame, trauma, and addiction in real time, with over 500 episodes and nearly 2 million downloads. Their approach centers on heart work: healing the underlying trauma and shame so couples can rebuild trust with honesty, accountability, empathy, and healthy strength.   Episode Highlights 03:25 Overcoming betrayal and rebuilding trust. 07:34 Authenticity vs connection in relationships. 12:17 Shame's hidden impact on self-image. 15:35 Using IFS to overcome shame. 18:39 Choosing love and self-awareness. 21:10 Navigating shame's impact on relationships. 24:13 Navigating vulnerability in relationships. 28:28 Embracing compassion over self-criticism. 31:52 Exploring EFT and emotional connectivity. 34:48 Recovering trust after betrayal. 36:45 The trust equation and lasting love. 41:54 Beginning your healing journey.   Your Checklist of Actions to Take Practice Courage: Begin sharing your personal story and feelings with people you trust, focusing on authenticity and vulnerability. Build Context: Remind yourself you are not alone in your struggles; seek out others with similar experiences to normalize your feelings and reduce shame. Cultivate Compassion: Replace self-criticism with curiosity and kindness; when you notice a harsh inner voice, intentionally respond with understanding instead. Separate Your Parts: Use parts work or Internal Family Systems (IFS) to identify shame-driven and protective parts within yourself, then approach them with gratitude rather than rejection. Join a Support Group: Find or create safe spaces such as group therapy or support circles where you can practice vulnerability and receive nonjudgmental feedback. Create Boundaries: Establish healthy internal and external boundaries so you can engage with others' emotions without absorbing attacks or losing your sense of self. Get Professional Help: Explore modalities such as IFS, EMDR, ART, or DBT to address entrenched patterns and trauma that reinforce shame. Work on Relationship Recovery: If healing from betrayal, prioritize establishing safety and consistency, then focus on individual growth alongside nurturing relationship trust and intimacy.   Mentioned The Therapy Brothers (podcast) Shifting Criticism For Connected Communication (free relationship guide)   Connect with Tyler and Brannon Patrick Website: therapybrothers.org YouTube: youtube.com/@lovestrong | youtube.com/@therapy.brothers  Facebook: facebook.com/love.strong.org | facebook.com/ExpertBrannon  Instagram: instagram.com/therapy.brothers/ | instagram.com/sunrisegoal LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/brannon-patrick/ | linkedin.com/in/tyler-patrick-lmft-24488366/ | linkedin.com/in/chase-jones-b63368128

What if the reactions, fears, and relationship patterns you struggle with today are connected to parts of your story that were never fully healed?In this powerful conversation, Brya Hanan unpacks inner child work, IFS/parts work, and somatic healing through a deeply Catholic lens. She explains:why our bodies can hold memories and emotions that our minds have pushed aside, how old wounds can shape our attachment and dating patterns, and why healing means learning to feel safe within ourselves. Brya also shares her practical “Five A's” framework to help you slow down, listen to what's happening within you, and bring those experiences to Christ.This episode is an invitation to move beyond simply knowing that God is good in your head and begin experiencing His love, safety, tenderness, and presence in your whole self.Brya's links:Websites - bryahananlmft.com and catholicinnerchildwork.comInstagram - @catholicinnerchildworkBrya's book on Ave Maria Press✨✨✨

Prompten ist kinderleicht – nur gewusst wie. In dieser Folge zeigt Matthias Lehrke (Wirtschaftsingenieur, Berater der Lebensmittelwirtschaft und Obmann des DGQ-Arbeitskreises HACCP und Hygiene), wie sich KI im Qualitätsmanagement (QM) und in der Qualitätssicherung (QS) sinnvoll einsetzen lässt. Sein zentraler Punkt: Der Prompt ist wichtiger als das verwendete KI-Modell. Anhand konkreter Beispiel-Prompts – von der formalen Dokumentenprüfung über Gefahrenanalysen bis zur Plausibilitätsprüfung von Korrekturmaßnahmen – wird gezeigt, wo KI im Arbeitsalltag echte Zeitersparnis bringt und wo ihre Grenzen liegen. Die Folge ist ein Auszug eines Webinars der BEHR'S Akademie und richtet sich an Fachleute aus QM, QS und Lebensmittelsicherheit, die KI praxisnah und datenschutzkonform nutzen möchten. Die wichtigsten Themen dieser Folge: Prompt vor Modell: Warum die Qualität des Prompts entscheidender ist als die Wahl der KI – und wie man die KI den eigenen Prompt sogar selbst verbessern lässt. Master-Prompts & Reproduzierbarkeit: Wie strukturierte Master-Prompts mit rund 15 festen Themengebieten (Rolle, Aufgabe, Quelle, Negativvorgaben u. a.) für vergleichbare, reproduzierbare Ergebnisse sorgen. Datenschutz & Grenzen der KI: Sensible Daten gehören nur in abgeschottete, datenschutzkonforme KI-Umgebungen – und trotz 80–90 % Genauigkeit braucht es immer die fachliche Kontrolle durch den Menschen. Formale Dokumentenprüfung: Verständlichkeit, Sprachniveau und Lesbarkeit von Arbeitsanweisungen automatisiert bewerten und so den blinden Fleck bei der Dokumentenerstellung beseitigen. Gefahrenanalysen & HACCP: Wie KI Gefahren je Prozessschritt auflistet, Ursachen und Auswirkungen unterscheidet und einen belastbaren Grundstock für die Gefahrenanalyse liefert. Audits & Korrekturmaßnahmen: KI zur Vorbereitung von Auditlisten inklusive typischer Schwachstellen sowie zur Plausibilitätsprüfung von Korrekturen und Korrekturmaßnahmen (z. B. im Rahmen von IFS Food 8). Timestamps für Schnellhörer: 04:10 – Datenschutz und die roten Linien: Welche Daten niemals in die KI gehören. 07:11 – Master-Prompts: Reproduzierbarkeit durch strukturierte Prompt-Vorlagen. 11:15 – Codes als Kürzel: Wie kurze Befehle lange Prompts ersetzen. 14:35 – Formale Dokumentenprüfung: Verständlichkeit und Sprachniveau bewerten. 25:22 – Ursachenanalysen mit KI: Kreative Ursachensuche statt halber Analysen. 26:51 – Daten analysieren: Mittelwert, Median und Prozessfähigkeit ohne teures Statistiktool. 28:21 – Audits vorbereiten: Auditlisten mit typischen Schwachstellen erstellen. 29:51 – Korrekturmaßnahmen prüfen: Plausibilitätscheck im Rahmen eines IFS Food 8 Audits.

If you are up most nights worrying about money scenarios that may or may not happen, this episode is for you. I know how hard it is… In this episode, we explore why financial uncertainty can feel so overwhelming, especially when our capacity is already depleted by caregiving, grief, burnout, health concerns, work pressure or major life transitions.You'll learn how the nervous system responds to uncertainty, how reduced capacity can turn a future possibility into a present emergency, and how to distinguish useful preparation from fear-based forecasting.We'll also explore the certainty-seeking loop: the cycle of one more calculation, one more scenario and one more question, all in the hope that enough thinking will finally make us feel safe.Because some money stress needs a plan.Some money stress needs care.And often, it needs both.In this episode, we explore:Why even exciting uncertainty can activate the nervous systemHow capacity affects our ability to tolerate financial unknownsThe window of tolerance in ordinary, everyday languageThe difference between practical preparation and fear-based forecastingHow to identify the specific problem your worry is trying to preventWhy every possible future scenario does not require a plan todayHow one small practical step can build agency and self-trustWhat to do when your mind continues asking, “But are we absolutely sure?”An IFS-inspired* practice for meeting the part of you that carries financial fear*The guided reflection in this episode is inspired by Internal Family Systems and is offered for education and gentle self-reflection. It is not a substitute for mental health treatment or individualized financial advice.⭐️ Book Your Introductory SessionIf you're tired of wondering why money feels harder than it should, I invite you to book a 1:1 Financial Wellness Session.Together, we'll explore the emotional, behavioral, and nervous system patterns driving your financial decisions, identify what's getting in the way, and create a practical path forward that actually works for your real life.Because I BET you don't need more financial advice... you need help understanding why you're struggling to do what you already know would help.You can book your session here. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If this episode made you think, gave you a new perspective, or helped you feel a little less alone, would you do me a favor?Leave a 5-star review on Spotify or Apple Podcasts and email me a screenshot.

What happens when trauma therapy stalls, even when you're doing everything right? In this solo episode, licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Todd Creager pulls back the curtain on how he works with clients, and why pairing two respected approaches, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and IFS (Internal Family Systems), helps people heal faster than either one alone.Todd starts with the basics of IFS, the idea that we're all made up of different parts. Some of those parts are wounded, carrying old pain from feeling unsafe, inadequate, unlovable, or abandoned as a child. Other parts are protective, working overtime to make sure we never feel that pain again. He shares a relatable example of how someone who was abandoned might keep choosing partners who feel emotionally safe but not very stimulating, because a protective part refuses to risk abandonment again.Then he explains where EMDR fits in. EMDR helps the brain reprocess a stuck traumatic memory so the past can stay in the past instead of hijacking your reactions in the present. It works beautifully on its own, Todd says, until it doesn't. Sometimes clients go blank, dissociate, or hit a wall. That's not failure. That's a protective part saying the system isn't ready yet.This is where the combination matters. Todd describes how IFS builds the relationship first, helping you meet the protective part, understand what it's guarding, and earn its trust, so EMDR can then release what the wounded part, or exile, has been carrying. He walks through a real-world scenario from his practice with infidelity recovery, where a betrayed partner can't move past the discovery of the affair because a part of them believes letting go would mean letting their partner off the hook or treating themselves like the betrayal didn't matter.You'll hear how befriending that protective part, rather than fighting it, opens the door to processing the deeper wound, whether it's the betrayal itself or earlier abandonment it stirred up. As Todd puts it, one approach builds the relationship, the other releases the burden, and together they can help parts that have carried the same wound for decades finally put it down.If you've tried therapy and felt stuck, or you're working through trust after infidelity and wondering why the pain won't loosen its grip, this episode gives you a clear, compassionate picture of what healing can actually look like.If this episode resonated with you, share it with someone who's carrying something heavy, and follow the show for more honest conversations about love, healing, and relationships.

**Jeep Talk Show – New Jeep Scrambler Plans, Battery Trickle Charging Tips, Video Voicemails & More** Welcome back to the Jeep Talk Show, the longest-running and best Jeep podcast out there! Tony and Josh (back in the mix) dig into Jeep's upcoming Scrambler, why they think it's going to happen around 2028, the design details that have them both excited and pissed off (IFS front *and* rear? Side steps? Modular rear seats that flip for tailgating? A K5 Blazer-style removable hatch?), and whether this "halo" desert-racer two-door pickup is actually for Jeep people or just another attempt to chase the side-by-side market. They also cover: - Real-world trickle charger problems (and a better, simpler solution) - How to leave a proper video voicemail (and why the Camflare redirect is legit) - A listener video voicemail from Nathan in Pittsburgh - The new "Most Popular / Best Of" page on the website that remembers what you've already heard - Bonus segment teaser: Hard shackles vs soft shackles (YouTube members & Patreon only) This is pure Jeep Talk Show — honest opinions, zero corporate filter, and plenty of laughs. ### Timestamps 00:00 Intro and Call to Share 01:27 Scrambler Intro and Bonus Segment Tease 02:32 Scrambler Prospects and Voice Mail 03:27 Scrambler Concept and Naming Debate 04:58 Scrambler Timeline and Near‑Term Outlook 06:59 Scrambler Design and Utility Features 11:34 Scrambler Versatility, Halo Role, and Engines 13:05 Side‑Step Concerns and Design Critique 14:15 Mic Glitch and Quick Design Note 14:42 Editing Interlude and Halo Concept 15:27 Clarifying Halo Terminology 16:44 Engine Feasibility Discussion 18:10 Drivetrain Options and SRT Overview 19:21 Desert Racing Focus 20:13 IFS vs Solid Axle and Market Strategy 22:01 Front‑End Design and Styling Highlights 25:02 Cost Concerns and Trophy‑Truck Aspirations 26:17 Trophy‑Truck Speculation 27:29 Jeep Strategy vs Side‑by‑Side Market 30:46 Success Outlook and Listener Feedback 32:22 Listener Engagement Options 32:42 Interactive Listening Challenges 34:12 CamFlare App Explanation 38:51 CamFlare Installation and Submission Guidance 40:19 Personal Updates and Lockbox Mention 41:16 Trickle Charging Tips and New Charger 47:08 Bluetooth Load Tester Overview 48:16 Navigating Podcast Archive 50:07 Meta Discussion on Episode Length 53:26 Closing Remarks and Disclaimer ### Key Highlights - Jeep is finally admitting past mistakes and aiming the Scrambler at the high-speed desert / side-by-side crowd instead of pure rock crawling. - Expected powertrains include the 2.0 Hurricane, 3.6 Pentastar, and a possible 6.4 392 Hemi SRT version. - Tony's take: cool looking, interesting, but IFS (especially rear) means it's not a real Jeep for him. - Practical garage tip: many cheap trickle chargers draw power from the battery when "off." A simple automatic maintainer + smart plug schedule fixes it. - New website feature: jeeptalkshow.com/bestof (or "Most Popular" in the menu) ranks the top 50 episodes by downloads and remembers what you've already played. **Share the show.** Seriously.

More young people than ever are going to university, but the financial stakes have also risen. Many graduates begin their careers with around £50,000 of student debt and could make repayments for up to 40 years. While some degrees deliver substantial lifetime earnings gains, others may leave graduates financially worse off than if they had not attended university.Helen Miller is joined by IFS economists Christine Farquharson and Kate Ogden to examine what the evidence tells us about the financial returns to higher education.They discuss why graduate outcomes vary so widely across subjects, institutions and students; whether low-earning courses provide value to taxpayers; and whether government should restrict funding for degrees with poor financial outcomes.They also consider how artificial intelligence and wider labour-market disruption could affect today's students, and whether historic earnings data can reliably guide decisions about careers that may last into the 2070s.Become a member: https://ifs.org.uk/individual-membershipFind out more: https://ifs.org.uk/podcasts-explainers-and-calculators/podcasts Hosted on Acast.

I'm Justin Anderson (J. Vaelorin), a network engineer by day and founder of VaelorinVerse, a dark fantasy universe where mental health functions as the magic system. I built it to process almost twenty years of unspoken grief, the kind men get taught to swallow.What surprised me: licensed clinicians reached out to say the work maps closely to narrative therapy and IFS, frameworks I'd never studied. One therapist endorsed the tools on her own show. And it reaches an audience most mental health content can't, 64% male overall, and my longest, heaviest piece hit 84% men with a 23% like rate. The deeper the work goes, the more it reaches the group hardest to reach in mental health.Topics I can speak to:

Your inner critic isn't protecting you — it's destroying your relationships. That voice telling you you're not good enough, not interesting enough, not enough full stop? It was built by your past, not your reality. In this guide, I break down where the inner critic comes from (hint: insecure attachment and critical caregivers), why ignoring it makes it louder, and the counterintuitive approach to transforming it — using chair work, reparenting, and IFS-style parts work — so you can stop sabotaging your relationships and finally feel like enough.   RELATE:   

In this 10-minute episode, I explore the question: Do we attract certain people, or do we choose to entertain them?Through the lens of attachment theory, I unpack why we're often drawn to what feels familiar rather than what is healthy, how childhood patterns can shape our adult relationships, and why we may unconsciously try to “change the ending” of old wounds.I also bring in an IFS perspective and share reflective questions to help you understand which parts of you become activated in certain relationship dynamics.If you keep finding yourself in similar patterns, this episode is an invitation to look inward with curiosity, compassion, and greater awareness.♾ In a fast-paced world like the one we live in, time is one of our most important assets. For a few minutes every episode, I, Tannaz Hosseinpour, will be discussing topics that aim to enhance the quality of your life, by helping you feel empowered to take inspired action on your personal growth journey.Connect with me for daily insights:InstagramFacebookTikTokMore resources available on www.minutesongrowth.comThis podcast is for educational purposes only.

In this special episode of IFS Talks, we welcome Richard C. Schwartz, Martha Sweezy, David Lovas, and Sunny Strasburg, authors of Psychedelic Medicine and Internal Family Systems Therapy: A Clinical Skills Manual.Together, we explore why IFS and psychedelic-assisted therapy can be naturally complementary, and why the medicine itself is only one part of the therapeutic process. Our guests discuss the importance of preparation, respect for protectors, internal consent, careful pacing, therapeutic presence, clinical safety, and ethical practice.The conversation examines how therapists can distinguish Self-energy from altered or dissociative states, decide when to intervene during challenging experiences, and respond to fear, overwhelm, shutdown, and protector backlash. We also consider sensitive questions concerning touch, boundaries, therapist readiness, personal experience with psychedelic medicines, and the assessment of clients for whom this work may not yet be safe.Finally, we turn to integration: how IFS can help people make sense of psychedelic experiences, reconnect with every part of their system, and translate insight into meaningful and sustainable change.We believe this is a thoughtful and clinically grounded conversation about the possibilities of bringing IFS and psychedelic medicine together, without losing sight of humility, consent, safety, and respect for the client's inner healing intelligence.This episode is intended for educational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice or encourage the use of psychedelic substances outside appropriately qualified, ethical, and legal settings.We are excited to celebrate the launch of IFS Collected Wisdom: Conversations with Experienced Voices in Internal Family Systems a book that brings together voices, reflections, and lived experience from across the IFS community. This book was created from a desire to honor those voices, and to acknowledge that wisdom in IFS doesn't live in one place or one person. It lives in relationship, in experience, and in the field as it evolves. Thank you for being a listener, for being part of this community,  and for continuing to explore what becomes possible when Self leads. We hope that IFS Collected Wisdom can become a companion in your IFS journey. Here is a link to the IFS Collected Wisdom book contents. 

Fatigue. Brain fog. Cravings that never quit no matter how "good" you're eating. In this episode of Food Junkies, Dr. Vera Tarman sits down with Dr. Carolyn Dean — MD, naturopath, and author of more than 50 books including The Magnesium Miracle — to unpack a piece of the addiction and recovery puzzle that rarely gets airtime: magnesium deficiency and its tangled relationship with yeast overgrowth, sugar metabolism, and chronic cravings. Dr. Dean has spent over five decades in integrative and functional medicine, and in this conversation she lays out her theory that a huge share of chronic symptoms — anxiety, insomnia, heart palpitations, muscle tension, even conditions mistaken for neurological disease — trace back to a mineral most conventional labs never test properly. She also digs into candida overgrowth, why restrictive diets like keto and carnivore may be working for reasons people don't realize, and why sugar cravings might be your gut asking for something other than sugar. This episode isn't a replacement for individualized medical or clinical treatment, and it isn't an endorsement of any product mentioned. As always, we encourage listeners to bring these questions to their own care team. In this episode, you'll learn: Why magnesium is required to produce ATP — the energy currency of every cell — and what happens when your body can't get enough The difference between a magnesium compound and a bioavailable magnesium ion, and why so many supplements underdeliver How soil depletion and modern agriculture have quietly lowered magnesium in the food supply over the past century The link Dr. Dean draws between candida/yeast overgrowth, leaky gut, and persistent sugar cravings Why she believes some people on restrictive diets (keto, carnivore, paleo) may be managing yeast overgrowth without realizing it The connection between sugar metabolism, vitamin C, and cardiovascular health Her recommended starting point for anyone wanting to address deficiency: diet, timing, and sequencing of supplementation About Our Guest Dr. Carolyn Dean, MD, ND is a physician and naturopath with over 50 years of experience in integrative and functional medicine. A graduate of Dalhousie University's medical school, she is the author of more than 50 books, including The Magnesium Miracle, Detox Your Body, and multiple works on sugar toxicity and mineral deficiency. Her clinical focus centers on magnesium, mineral absorption, and yeast overgrowth as root contributors to chronic fatigue, cravings, and metabolic dysfunction.

Sarah Ann Saeger, LPC, LCADC, LAMFT, is an Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapist who specializes in complex trauma, addiction, and relationships. She is trained in IFS and an array of somatic,attachment-informed therapies. Sarah shares psychoeducation and reflections on parts work and the healing journey on her Instagram and Substack platforms. She is dedicated to helping survivors embrace the wisdom of their whole selves, and she supports survivors in her PA-based therapy practice.In this episode, we explore parentification: what it is, how it develops, and the ways it can continue to shape our lives after childhood.We discuss what can happen when a child grows up feeling responsible for the emotional well-being of others, learns to suppress their own needs, and takes on roles that were never theirs to carry. We also unpack the many nuances of these experiences, recognizing that family, culture, and generation has its own context. In addition, we talk about what it can look like to incorporate Internal Family Systems (IFS) into the work of complex trauma and parentification. We discuss how these early roles can show up in adult relationships through familiar relational patterns and reenactments. This includes why we may find ourselves drawn to partners who reinforce what once felt familiar, along with the grief that can come from recognizing what we needed but didn't receive.FOLLOW SARAH:INSTA: @sarahannsaegerMORE INFO: LinktreeWORKBOOK: The Internal Family Systems Workbook For CPTSDSTAY CONNECTED:INSTA: @trustandthriveTIKOK: @trustandthriveTHREADS: @trustandthriveFACEBOOK: bit.ly/FBtaramontEMAIL: trustandthrive@gmail.com

On today's episode we welcome Bob Falconer back to the podcast. Bob is an IFS teacher, consultant, and author who has devoted decades to trauma healing and the study of mind and spirit. He co-authored Many Minds, One Self with Dick Schwartz and wrote The Others Within Us. His memoir, Self Unbroken, is out now. It's hard to pick a favorite "Bob" episode, but this one might be my favorite so far. We talk about his daily practice of dialoguing with Spirit, the sewer path to wisdom, what skeptical parts need, and the monk who changed everything for him Takeaways Self may be less like a particle and more like a field.  The high road to wisdom is lined with people waving shiny objects. Bob suggests trudging through the sewer instead. Skeptical parts don't need to be shut down, they need to be invited in. Not knowing is the beginning of knowledge  When a spirit dialogue starts making you feel superior to others, it's your clue the signal has been hijacked Understanding a past life isn't what heals it. Witnessing and unburdening the emotional charge is what changes things Use your client's language instead of imposing yours Here's a link to The One Inside Audio Guides I mentioned in the intro. About Bob A dedicated therapist and teacher of the IFS model, Robert Falconer has contributed significantly to the field through his research and writings. His work focuses on how our minds are not just multiple, but also porous. He brings this lens to IFS, especially in the context of trauma and spiritual experiences.

A Different D Word apply here ✨You keep telling yourself that everything is going to be okay...So why doesn't your body believe you?If you've read the books, listened to the podcasts, repeated the affirmations, and you're still waiting to feel calm, you're not failing. Your nervous system simply doesn't heal through information alone.In this episode, we're unpacking why uncertainty feels so terrifying after divorce, how hypervigilance disguises itself as responsibility, and why trying to control your ex, your children, or your future is often a nervous system strategy—not a character flaw.We also explore the difference between anxiety and intuition, why positive thinking can't create genuine self-trust, and what it actually takes to build a deep, embodied belief that you'll be okay no matter what life throws at you.In this episode, we discuss: Why "everything will be okay someday" keeps you stuck  The nervous system's relationship with uncertainty and fear  Hypervigilance, codependency, and the illusion of control  How to tell the difference between anxiety and intuition  Why healing requires more than therapy, books, and podcasts  What real emotional safety feels like in your body  The missing ingredient that helps self-trust finally stick If you've been quietly thinking, "I know all of this... so why can't I actually live it?"—this episode is for you.

The mental performance coach behind NAU's championship program (and the second-ever guest in show history) returns to break down the 16-page thesis she recently delivered at a coaching clinic, condensed into one conversation packed with tools you can use this cross-country season.Shannon unpacks what it means to "connect with the heart of the race,” and the three requirements to get there: a sense of belonging, a sense of irreplaceability, and an orientation toward giving rather than getting. From there, the conversation goes deep on the two stories every athlete lives through sport: the egoic story (work hard, achieve goals, repeat with higher goals) and the hero's journey—the narrative that begins when hard work stops guaranteeing results and you enter what Shannon calls "the wilderness."Along the way, they discuss why ego is never bad, just unhelpful; how parts theory (IFS) gets to the root of race-day anxiety, checking out mid-race, and mysterious pre-race nausea; the fear underneath it all;; a Scottie Scheffler-inspired debate on caring about outcomes without being owned by them; and a five-minute exercise you can use before your next race.Tap into the Shannon Thompson Special. If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review!

In this deeply illuminating episode, Loch sits down with Theravāda Buddhist monks Ajahn Kovilo and Ajahn Nisabho to explore the profound practice of Effortless Mindfulness.Together, they bridge the gap between conventional and non-dual wisdom traditions, mapping direct realization to traditional experiences like samādhi, the Unborn, and the Deathless. Loch introduces us to "local awake awareness” which is what navigates our consciousness and the power of micro-meditations, or "glimpses," even guiding listeners through direct experiential practices. The conversation delves into the nuances of shifting our identity out of the thinking mind, navigating common pitfalls like spiritual bypassing, and unsticking ourselves from the position of the detached mindful witness, which Loch calls "getting stuck in the witness protection program." Whether you are looking to integrate awake loving flow consciousness into everyday life or apply mindfulness to deep trauma this dialogue offers a rich, practical roadmap to awake awareness.Mindful GlimpsesYou can now explore all of Loch Kelly's practices and teachings on the Mindful Glimpses mobile app, found at https://lochkelly.org/mindful-glimpses.

Whether you're a betrayed partner trying to make sense of the chaos inside you, or a man who can't seem to stop behavior he hates — this episode is for you.   Kristin sits down with Jenna Riemersma, LPC - certified IFS therapist, CSAT supervisor, and bestselling author of Altogether You and her newest book Move Toward — to explore what happens when we stop fighting the parts of ourselves we don't like and start moving toward them instead.   Jenna unpacks: Why IFS (Internal Family Systems) is deeply rooted in scripture — and why the image of God inside you is the key to transformation without shame What it actually means to have "parts" — and why feeling torn, contradictory, or out of control doesn't mean something is wrong with you The three-step tool (Notice, Know, Need) you can use in your most triggered moments — no therapist required Why compassion unlocks what control never could, for both the betrayed partner and the person with unwanted sexual behavior How to speak for your parts instead of from them — and why that changes everything in conflict and in healing   This is not a shortcut. It's a different road entirely. Move Toward is available now wherever books are sold.

Have you ever felt like you've done all the inner work... yet one fear refuses to leave? In this compassionate and eye-opening coaching session, Christine works with Ilaria, who has spent years in therapy, practicing breathwork, nervous system regulation, and inner child healing. Yet one fear continues to consume her: the overwhelming fear of losing her parents. As she approaches her mid-thirties and begins thinking about creating a life of her own—finding a partner, becoming more independent, and stepping into her future—the fear grows even stronger. Why? Because underneath the anxiety isn't simply a fear of loss. It's a younger part of her that believes worrying is the only way to protect the people she loves. Christine introduces Ilaria to the powerful framework of Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Parts Work, helping her recognize that this fear isn't all of who she is—it's one protective part that's been trying to keep her safe since childhood. Together they explore acceptance, self-compassion, nervous system healing, and why sometimes the greatest breakthrough comes not from trying harder to fix ourselves, but from changing how we relate to the parts of us that are hurting. If you've ever felt trapped by anxiety, worried constantly about the people you love, or wondered why years of healing haven't made a particular fear disappear, this episode offers a deeply hopeful new perspective. Press play to discover how accepting your fear—rather than fighting it—may be the very thing that finally brings you peace. Consider / Ask Yourself Is there a fear you've been trying to eliminate for years without success? Do you constantly worry about losing the people you love? Have you confused your anxiety with your identity? Could one protective part of you be trying to keep you safe in the only way it knows how? Key Insights and A-Ha's Anxiety doesn't define you—it may simply be one protective part of your inner world. Healing isn't always about eliminating fear; sometimes it's about changing your relationship to it. Love and fear often become intertwined, making it difficult to experience one without the other. Parts Work (IFS) helps create compassion for protective patterns instead of fighting against them. Nothing truly heals through judgment—acceptance creates space for transformation. How to Deepen the Work Notice when fear shows up, and gently ask yourself, "Which part of me is speaking right now?" Practice separating your identity from your anxious thoughts: "This is a part of me, not all of me." Explore Parts Work or Internal Family Systems with a trained practitioner if this approach resonates. Allow yourself to fully experience love without assuming fear must always accompany it.

Tim Harford investigates some of the numbers in the news. This week:(00:32) A government minister has informed the nation that average teacher pay in England is around £54,000. Radio 4 listeners are howling at the radio in disbelief. Surely someone from the IFS would be able to explain all this? We interview someone from the IFS to explain all this.(06:32) A headline in the Independent suggests that Russian soldiers survive an average of 20 minutes when they get to the front line, citing a historian, citing Russian bloggers. Is the number a good one? We take a peek into the murky information ecosystem that surrounds the war in Ukraine.(15:00) A loyal listener has resent a burning question that - mortifyingly - he first asked us nearly three years ago: why is air travel cheaper than rail travel? We push our guilt deep, deep down then make it worse by challenging the premise of the question. (21:18) Is every shuffle of a deck of cards an unprecedented event in the history of the universe? It's a bold claim, but maths YouTuber and comedian Matt Parker has done his homework. We invite him into the studio to make his case - and show off his shuffling skills.More or Less is the programme that looks at numbers and statistics in news and in life.
