Listen Later

What if confidence, courage, and clarity weren’t things you had to earn or strive for—but were already within you, waiting to be uncovered?

In this special episode, I’m sharing a powerful conversation I had with IFS trauma therapist John Clarke on his Going Inside podcast—one of the most popular interviews I’ve done. We dive into the deeper layers of confidence, visibility, and self-leadership, exploring how Internal Family Systems (IFS) can help heart-centered entrepreneurs break free from burnout, perfectionism, and fear-driven work patterns.

I also share my personal journey with IFS—how it helped me heal, trust myself more deeply, and build a thriving business from a place of alignment. Listening to this conversation from a different vantage point gave me fresh insights, and I know it will for you, too.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, afraid to be seen, or caught in the cycle of overworking, this episode is for you.

⭐ And, as a special gift, I want to offer you free access to one of my most popular programs, “The IFS Kickstarter Kit.” This will teach you the foundational concepts of the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model—a proven framework that has helped me and countless others navigate challenges, build inner clarity, and create thriving, soul-aligned businesses.

Through this 7-part video series, you’ll gain a deep understanding of how IFS works and how to apply it to your own life and business. These are the same principles I teach in my advanced programs, now made accessible in an introductory format.
