Episode 47: Who is your Inner Ally? Improving mental wellness through self-compassion
In this weeks episode, I connected with Cynthia Phelps, founder of Inner Ally, a trauma-informed company that focuses on improving mental wellness through self-compassion. Cynthia shares her personal journey of discovering the power of the inner voice and how it can impact mental health. She explains how her own struggles with her inner voice led her to create Inner Ally, a character-based system that helps people practice self-compassionate language. The conversation also explores the importance of breaking generational patterns and becoming mindful of our inner voice. Cynthia emphasizes the power of thoughts and stories in shaping our experiences and offers practical tips for cultivating a more compassionate inner voice. We discuss the importance of releasing shame and allowing wounds to heal by speaking out loud about them. We emphasize the need to create space for others to show up authentically and let go of roles that no longer serve us. We also explore the process of deconditioning and showing up as our fully embodied, authentic selves. This conversation delves into the power of discernment and finding balance in our lives. We discuss the importance of listening to our inner critic and inner ally, and creating compassionate language for ourselves. Our conversation concludes with a discussion on embodiment practices, triggers, and the importance of giving and receiving in relationships. Cynthia discusses the importance of self-compassion and accountability in personal growth and relationships. We explore the role of being on your own and taking responsibility for your actions, as well as the power of rewiring behavior and showing compassion to oneself. Ultimately, we both emphasize the importance of embracing one's unique path and living life to the fullest.
Dr. Phelps is a Stanford Ambassador of Compassion, International Speaker, Certified Mindfulness Instructor, and Founder of InnerAlly, a trauma-Informed company building tools, courses, and mobile apps to improve mental wellness based on the science of self-compassion. She has extensive experience in learning and behavior change and has been developing mental health tools since 2009. Her expertise is in helping people to use their inner voice as their superpower to get what they want out of life. Her background in pharmacology and neuroscience helps her create programs and products for effective health behavior change. Cynthia started InnerAlly after having a profound recovery experience with implementing self-compassion in her own life, and now she facilitates live and online trainings and private programs to help others to make their own breakthroughs. InnerAlly celebrates the power of creating a kind and supportive inner voice to change your life for the better.
