    I'm super excited to welcome back to the podcast my friend, Jenna Riemersma. Jenna and I were chatting about her concept of 'Moving Towards' and decided to do another episode together. Jenna is such an amazing teacher, and I am thrilled that she shares her wisdom with us. Lees meer

    I felt so much Self energy and calmness in the middle of the podcast I forgot to ask about her 'Three Steps!'. Thankfully, she reminded my parts who got back online quickly.

    Here is an outline:

    - Move against in our culture (politics, covid)

    - The 8 C qualities of Self= What Love does and What Love looks like

    - Move towards starts with me then moves to we

    - Living a Move Toward kind of life - especially in our advocacy

    - Betrayal Trauma (Jenna explains the role of parts for both parties)

    - Psychological theories and Trauma

    On today's episode I chat again with my first guest ever, Jim Abrams. Jim is a frequent program assistant at IFS trainings so he is well known by many. Jim emailed me checking in and sharing lessons he is learning, and we wanted to share them with you! Lees meer

    Outline:

    1. When a problem becomes real.

    2. Changing ones experience of the circumstances.

    3. Holding and honoring parts who feel sad, grief, worry and joy simultaneously.

    4. Sometimes we need someone else.

    5. Polarities- Life is hard and life is joyful

    6. It is scary to be hopeful.

    7. Holding the parts who hold the pain.

    Here is my favorite quote:

    "We are not asking the part to be hopeful. We are asking the system to bring comfort and connection to that part so its experience of the circumstance changes."

  5. IFS and No Bad Parts with Richard Schwartz

    Here we are! - Together for the 100th episode with Dick Schwartz. Lees meer

    Dick has always been supportive and kind to me- from meeting him when I came out of a consultation group and he was standing in a hallway alone, to an unfortunate situation at a conference. He has been open and available for this podcast, and I am so grateful.

    Dick has a new book out this week called "No Bad Parts," which we planned to talk about. And we do- a little bit.

    What happened during our chat was we just started catching up. Then this transitioned to us both sharing some things 'off the record.'

    And, of course, Dick does not want to just TALK about the model- he wants to do it. So he says to me, "We can do a little piece of work if you want ..." How could I not agree!?

    So, that is what a big piece of this episode is- a demo of the model. You get to hear Dick doing the model and you get to hear me working with my parts.

    My hope for you is that you are able to go down your own trailheads as you listen. My hope for you is you learn something about this model. My hope for you is you get to witness the founder of IFS facilitate a session.

    Here is a bit of an outline:

    - Checking in

    - Trailheads

    - Dick's 'obsessed with IFS' part

    - Demonstration of the Model (from about 15 minutes until about 40 minutes)

    - The book- No Bad Parts

    - Bigger Plans for IFS

    Check out the silly faces we made on my social media pages :)

    On today's episode I chat with Frank Anderson. His new book, "Transcending Trauma" has been out for a month or so now, and he has done a few podcasts. I wanted to talk to him about how he is doing and what is going on in his life. Lees meer

    So! This is not just about trauma or his book. This is not about what is happening in the IFS world since Frank is an insider. This is not about Frank's workshops and IFS manuals and all those things.

    This episode - the 99th episode- is about authenticity.

    We talk about the book, of course. And, we talk about trauma. Mostly, we talk about family, love, and connection and their power to heal all of us.

    Frank says, "Love Heals What Trauma Blocks."

    - What brought her into psychedelic assisted therapy (such a great story!) and her current work at the Healing Center

    - Healing potential of psychedelic therapy and what is needed to administer it safely (all the S's- screening, set, setting, skill, and support)

    - IFS and Psychedelics: A powerful combination (self healing exiles)

    - Concerns: What about addiction? Don't psychedelics bypass protectors (and how they do)? What if someone has a history of psychosis? What about "bad" trips?

    Norma calls this Sacred Work, and I loved hearing her story and her passion.

  8. IFS as a Spiritual Practice with Gabby Bernstein

    18 juni 2021 · 41 min

    On today's podcast I talk with New York Times Best Selling Author, Speaker and lover of IFS Gabby Bernstein. Lees meer

    For over fifteen years, Gabby has been transforming lives—including her own. The #1 New York Times bestselling author has penned eight books including ​The Universe Has Your Back, Super Attractor ​and​ the latest, her first Audible Original, ​You Are the Guru.

    In her weekly podcast, Dear Gabby​, she offers up real-time coaching, straight talk and conversations about personal growth and spirituality with unique and inspiring guests​. ​What started as hosting intimate conversations with twenty people in her New York City apartment, Gabby has grown into speaking to tens-of-thousands in sold-out venues throughout the world.

    Gabby was featured on Oprah's SuperSoul Sunday as a "next-generation thought leader." The Oprah Winfrey Network chose Gabby to be part of the "SuperSoul 100," a dynamic group of trailblazers whose vision and life's work are bringing a higher level of consciousness to the world. ​The New York Times​ identified Gabby as "a new role model."

    She co-hosted the Guinness World Records' largest guided meditation with Deepak Chopra, and appears regularly as an expert on ​Today and Good Morning Americ​a, among other

    publications. She connects with her community through her books, her podcast, her Miracle Membership, the Spirit Junkie app, social media, digital workshops and e-courses, and live

    events.

    I was thrilled when I found out about Gabby and heard her speak in such a clear, understandable way about IFS. I had to have her on the podcast and am so thankful that she was open to do it. And, that she turned out to be such a warm, kind, and lovely person.

    It is amazing when we find people talking our same language outside of the IFS community and that is what I thought about Gabby.

    I highly recommend you check out her website which is full of free resources. On this episode I mention her TED talk and her Super Soul Session which can be found …

    On today's episode I chat with Mary Kruger, a lead trainer with the IFS Institute and one of the developers of the Level Two Addiction training. Lees meer

    Mary shares her own story of finding IFS and her personal experience of the healing power of its integration with the 12 step model.

    We talk SO MUCH about Shame.

    We talk about the 12 steps as a Spiritual Path and working with parts who have difficulties with 12 step programs.

    We talk about addiction as 'disease' and where this idea comes from. Disease is disharmony; IFS restores harmony.

    We talk about family and trauma.

    We talk about the connection and shame reducing power of group work.

    Mary talks about looking inside, even though a part may fear the badness and shame that may be found there, and the healing when we take back in who we are truly intended to be.

    She says that curiousity and compassion are our biggest healing agents.

    Lois is a grandmother extraordinaire; I want to drop the boy off at her house for a week. Or, drop off all my exhausted, overwhelmed parenting parts.

    Lois has integrated IFS and Attachment therapy with families struggling with trauma. She developed a narrative method to teach parents and children the concepts of IFS which has empowered children to use the method of Insight as well as Direct Access. She is now mostly doing training and consultation as she co parents her own 3 year old granddaughter.

    I LOVED this conversation with Lois.

    Update and FYI- We recorded this right after the Capital Shootings. I checked with Lois this week and she is vaccinated and back at home with her family.

    Loch's approach to accessing Self is different then Dick's, and Loch suggests asking the F's, which we normally ask of parts, to one's Self.

    Loch teaches us to ask: Who is aware and Who is the one asking?

    We talk about trailheads to our protective parts around racism and the parts who try to separate, numb, and disconnect from racism and parts who engage in 'white saviorism.' A list of trailheads is on her website too.

    Link to the Demo HERE!

    I just want to note how HUGE it is that Dick (and Sara Oberg at the IFS Institute!) allowed us to have access to this link.

    We talk about the polarizations from the demo and what has happened in his system since then. Ty is vulnerable and his story is painful and beautiful. It is full of hope and motivation.

    Ty continues to talk about his younger exiles throughout this episode. And, I continue to ASK- I have STRONG mothering parts who WILL NOT UNBLEND. I still notice them as I interact with Ty even now.

    Ty talks about his experience and lessons learned with an ice bath in Maine. Our internet connection is not the best during this story which is about the first 8 minutes of the episode.... it gets better.

    Around the 30 minute mark Ty shares his thoughts about racism.

    At the 40 minutes mark we talk about how Ty is coaching men on their image and shares his own discovery of why image is so important.

    Ty talks about The Gentlemen's Factory, a social club for men of color where he's a founding member in Brooklyn, NY.

    On today's episode, I chat with Steve Spitzer and Glenn Williams. Steve, Emeritus Professor of Sociology at Suffolk University in Boston, has taught, researched, and written on crime, justice and social control for three decades. Lees meer

    He is Level 2 IFS trained and has presented his use of the IFS model inside prisons at multiple IFS annual conferences and has written articles in the IFS newsletter, The Outlook.

    In 2002, he founded the Jericho Circle Project, a non-profit organization that seeks to 'bring down the walls' by creating men's support groups in correctional facilities.

    Since the project began, almost 1000 incarcerated men have sat in Jericho Circles in county, state, and federal correctional institutions in Massachusetts, Maine, and Rhode Island.

    Glenn participated in the Jericho groups when he was incarcerated for 21 years and later met Steve in a different context. Glenn now 'pays it forward' with his organization, Our House Boston.

    Glenn is Level One IFS trained and is passionate about spreading the word about our True Essence, especially to black men in urban settings.

    Glenn is a reentry advocate and community investor who works with various individuals, families, organizations and businesses to raise awareness about and create solutions to the challenges of incarceration and prisoner reintegration.

    This conversation is AMAZING. I cannot convey this in words. Here are some themes:

    'Self' Discovery

    Masculinity

    Men's work inside prisons, power of vulnerability, and speaking for parts

    'Climbing out of the man box'/Taking off masks

    The importance of power in manliness for Black Men

    Glenn states, "Who I pretend to be (what my community and society says I need to be in order to survive) and my Essence are not the same thing."

    And, "IFS offers the opportunity for Self Discovery and Self Exploration (inside and outside of prison). Discovering that my shame and guilt are parts of me and do not have to define who I am at my core."

    Frank is personal, engaging, and hilarious. He shares a lot of his own story and is vulnerable and real. I decided to leave in our entire conversation (instead of cutting out some of the beginning bits) because you get a feel for him right from the start.

    We talk about Spirituality and the integration with Science and Research. We talk about LGBTQ plus, lots about complex trauma, and we touch on parenting and substance use. We talk about psychedelics, mediums, and ascended masters (I had to look that up afterwards).

    It is a wild ride.

    I encourage you to listen and observe your own parts' reactions. Use these as trailheads to do your own work and meet the younger parts of you who hold pain.

    They share their own personal stories and their experiences working with their racist parts.

    What is said over and over is the power of the model to heal, and the importance of following the trailheads of our own racism to get to our exiles and our own ancestors and legacy burdens.

    We talk about so much- indigenous peoples, polyvagal theory, classism, capitalism, grief and shame. And, we laugh... I promise.

    Read about The Dakota 38 here

    Ingrid has an ebook/workbook that uses IFS and Polyvagel theory to help people with chronic worry. It is found at www.calmyourworries.com

    We talk about Self being the God image inside us all, and the idea of thinking about sin as the burden of trauma.

    Jenna talks about restoration; the restoration of our parts with our Self.

    Milena is a master story teller and I was drawn in from the beginning. I had this sensation of leaning in close as she spoke.

    She states, "I grew up believing I was white.... This is a protection for the family... White is a protection. It is safe."

    The first half of the episode is her and her family's story. The second half is about her connection to feminism and the performing arts. We talk about the womb and the legacy burdens we take on in the womb. We talk about family loyalty and family secrets. We talk about what we are 'allowed' to be as women.

    I am not going to be able to tell you or share with you here the power of her story and her voice!

    I decided to sum it all up with the "Belonging."

    Just listen! I think you will walk about feeling moved and empowered.

    On today's episode, I chat with Derek Scott about "What is IFS?" Lees meer

    Do you want the people in your life to know what this 'IFS thing' is all about? Well, here you go!

    I am THRILLED to give this to you, and hope it is a gift you give to your friends, family, co-workers, and strangers on the street.

    Derek teaches with humor and wisdom and warmth. I interrupt a lot so that is fun.

    We also talk about how perfectionism, need to try harder, need to get it right, need to never make a mistake, etc. parts may form and why.

    We talk about being 'too' sensitive, loud, quiet, etc., and how we can get the message, "It is not safe to be me, I need to Dim My Light as a way of being in the world."

    To find Derek's info and an abundance of videos, workshops, etc. go to:

  42. IFS and Self Led Sexuality with Patricia Rich

    On today's episode I chat with Patricia Rich about Self Led Sexuality. Patricia is a certified IFS Therapist and AASECT Certified Sex Therapist and Supervisor. She brings her expertise, her vulnerability, and her warmth to teach us about this new model based on IFS. Lees meer

    I had to get a few of my parts to settle down before this episode. I speak for some of them at the beginning, like my giggling Middle School part and my 'Don't say too much personal stuff!' part.

    Patricia and I spend the first 30 minutes on process and connection and the last half on content. We talk a lot about 'internal consent' and the importance of knowing, hearing from and being with your own parts. You may find you also need to work with your own parts as you listen to the episode. I appreciate Patricia's gentle care and check in's with me and the listener throughout.

    My favorite part of this episode is towards the end when Patricia pulls it all together with how the six S's of Sexual Self Energy help us assess for Self leadership. Then, she teaches how we can use the 6 F's of IFS to get to know the parts of us who get 'between' us and the S's. It will all make sense!

    Patricia says when we do this work, the shift in ourselves is revolutionary and worth it.

    Marushka Glissen, an assistant trainer with the IFS Institute is returning to the podcast to talk about one of her other passions, marriage (See episode 33 for our first chat about Legacy Burdens). Lees meer

    Here is a bit of an outline of the show:

    1. Gratitude towards partner (esp during Covid)

    2. Appreciation of partner (again, Covid)

    3. Complications in 2nd marriages and blended families

    5. Guilty parts in 2nd marriages

    6. 'Do you want to be right or do you want to experience closeness and love'

    7. Using phrases "In my opinion"/"From my perspective"

    8. Partners often ask us to stretch... we are better for it

    9. Seeing pain (exile) behind partners 'a-hole' behaviors (protector)

    10. How to stay when it is really hard? Or separate in a connected way.

    13. Be Curious, Not Furious

    I share way too much personal information in this episode- about my family of origin (a blended family) and about my marriage. I took a long time editing this and checking with my parts about how comfortable they felt putting this out there. So, here it is. I may take it down immediately ;)

    Welcome back! Here we are - season 2. Lees meer

    On today's episode, I chat with Leon Silvers, founder of Drag Therapy and STAR of Drag Heals (well, he is the star of epi 2, season 2).

    I'm curious how your parts reacted to the title of this episode. I imagine some of your parts are like, 'What is that?' And some are like, 'Oh, gosh.' And some are like, 'How fun!'

    I hope you can be with all those parts, those voices inside, and listen to this episode. I promise it is FULL of creativity and energy and fun.

    I was surprised about what Drag therapy is and what it isn't. I was surprised by how open and creative I began to feel just talking to Leon.

    Here are some of the gems inside the episode:

    - Expansive play (how this helps me appreciate one of my critics)

    - Freedom and creativity

    - Opening up to all the parts inside

    - Power of embodying parts and giving them voice

    - Using fiction to allow 'managers' to loosen up (Meet my manager Tom the lawyer who is dressed in a suit- about 20 min mark)

    - Wilderness therapy and playing with 'category' (about 40 min mark)

    Check out:

  46. IFS and Parts Work with Tom Holmes

    On today's episode, I talk with Tom Holmes. He and his wife, Lauri wrote the book, "Parts Work: An Illustrated Guide to Your Inner Life." Sharon Eckstein created incredible illustrations which are in the book and the Inner Active cards. Lees meer

    The book and the Parts Work Inner Active cards are some of my favorite IFS tools. I can't express how much I love- and use- the parts cards!

    Tom has been around the IFS community for a long time- Dick mentions him in the epi we did last fall. Tom tells us his journey with IFS and how his personal work helped him with burnout (we have heard that many times of this podcast).

    He describes the origin of the book and cards and describes how he has seen over and over again the power of these very special cards across cultures.

    Tom now travels the world teaching IFS or what he sometimes calls Parts Work, Internal Systems Therapy, or Integrated Internal Systems Therapy.

    Tom is passionate about integrating Spirituality and IFS and is working on his next book exploring spiritual paths.

    I wrote down so many quotes of Tom's such as:

    "As a person gets centered in Self, their spiritual life awakens and deepens."

    We can "water the seeds of Self" (through spiritual rituals, meditation, nature, etc).

    "When we bring peace to our inner system, we bring peace to the world."

    "If we can help people tap into and access Self/Spirit/Connected Energy- what else is more important?" (That is a loose quote!)

    Email Tom at tomholmes42@gmail.com if you want to talk with him about teaching IFS at your organization.

    Tom's website has many videos of him teaching and with a demonstration of the Parts Work Cards. My son and I love the video of Tom using the Inside Out Puppets!

    If you want to connect with me, I am at #ifstammy on Instagram and at The One Inside Facebook page. I will see you for Season 2 in September!

    Enjoy and take care!

  47. IFS and Vulnerability in Race Conversations with Nydia Guity

    On today's episode, the final for honoring minority mental health month, I talk with Nydia Guity, an IFS therapist, podcaster, writer, and natural hair enthusiast. Lees meer

    I had no idea ("but didn't I?," says a part) the 'emotional baggage that comes with hair,' whatever your race, culture, or background.

    Nydia shares her story- her parents are originally from Honduras and celebrate the Garifuna culture, she grew up in NYC speaking Spanish as her first language, went to college in Vermont, and currently lives in Atlanta.

    I appreciate her vulnerability and openness as we connect. I ask a lot of dumb white girl questions. Parts of me are embarrassed and I wanted to erase them all.... but I did not.

    We talk about moms and hair (do you have a mom and hair story? I do too!).

    We talk about how personal development is a process that does not end and how working with our parts helps tolerate polarizations (all or nothing).

    We talk about the question, 'What does it mean to be right?'

    And we talk about hair and all the messages, stigma, and complexities that come along with it.

    Check out Nydia's website where you can find her writings and podcast!

    On today's episode I speak with Radhalisa Zarzuela and Deran Young. Radha and Deran met at a level one IFS training in Harlem, NY. Lees meer

    Radha shares her story with us which is touching and courageous. I felt inspired by her and think you will too.

    We talk about 'rules' which may come from our cultures and the legacy burdens we carry.

    We talk about "code switching" as a person of color.

    We talk about the impact of domestic violence and the power of coming out of this with "trauma residue" and with a strong voice.

    And we talk about being in the Miss America pageant (I bet you didn't think I was going to say that!).

    This may be the last in the minority mental health series for this month! I hope you have been encouraged and challenged.

    Enjoy!

    On today's episode I speak with Requina and Deran who share their different stories and life experiences. Requina is the friend Deran mentions in our first podcast so I am excited she was able to join today. Lees meer

    Requina Barnes, LICSW specializes in relationships, attachment and trauma. Through her Boston, MA private practice, she works primarily with men, women, and couples of color. Requina is a member of the Foundation for Self Leadership Board of Directors. And she is the VP of the BTR Board of Directors.

    She is available for IFS consultation and supervision- her email is strengthinc4@gmail.com

    Deran Young, LCSW, is the Founder of Black Therapists Rock, an organization that includes over 20,000 professionals committed to reducing intergenerational trauma in marginalized communities. Earlier this year, she was personally recruited by Brene Brown to consult on the inclusiveness of her current Belonging Statement and to inspire other corporate leaders to operationalize diversity in their organizational practices and policies.

    It is eye opening and interesting, and I definitely walked away with a trailhead or two.

    We met to record this at the beginning of May. We were still feeling the isolation and challenge of Covid-19 and George Floyd was still alive.

    We had no idea what was to come.

    I'm thrilled and honored to give you the first of four episodes devoted to Minority Mental Health Awareness.

    Today is some of Deran's story- why she created BTR, her experience as a military psychotherapist, the challenge of dealing with divorce, health issues, and becoming a single mother, and her introduction to IFS. She talks about the origins of her younger 'self esteem' part and the freedom and power of unburdening and healing her.

    And so much more.

    She is funny and kind and fun and lovely. I'm glad we are going to get 3 more hours (at least!) with her this month.

    Here is what Deran is reading:

    You are a Badass at Making Money

    A Framework for Understanding Poverty

    Dare To Lead
