43. A Helpful Type of Therapy: Internal Family Systems


Listen Later

Today, Sara and I take a deeper dive into the  Internal Family Systems (IFS) model of therapy. We discuss the parts of  IFS (Self, protectors, exiles) and how to work toward healing with a  specific focus on how our past pain impacts our relationships with our  children. We start with our current Highs and Lows (i.e., school advocacy, enjoying a more settled life in Hilo, and the challenges of homeschooling). Then we shift into Today’s Topic. Next we share a couple of Tips & Tricks (“two things are true” from Dr. Becky and an ode to public libraries). Finally, we close out with Facing Forward to share what we want to make true in our lives in the next two weeks  as we work to cultivate lives full of joy, purpose, and community.
