What if instead of fighting your anxiety, perfectionism, or that voice that says you're not good enough, you could actually befriend them? Tina Hallis introduces us to Internal Family Systems—a framework that says all those "difficult" parts of you are actually just trying to help. We dive into why positive thinking sometimes backfires, how to recognize when your parts are running the show, and what it means to lead from your true self. Tina shares her journey from biotech to IFS advocate and gives us practical tools (like her ALIGN model) for making peace with ourselves. Spoiler: being human isn't for sissies, but this conversation helps.
