- 123: Alexander A. revisits
🔸 What does a firefighter see?
🔹 Part (Location, Fear, Rather be doing, Age, Needs):- Addicted to internet/YouTube.
- right side
- the terror…
- rather be relaxing
- age 0?
- needs more! More time, more love.
🎓 What I'd like to do differently:The past day or two, I've been intensively studying and diagnosing a chronic health issue of mine. Surprise! The more we love ourselves the more we can love others. What I'd like to do differently: more of that-----🗳 Send anonymous feedback to James: Feedback Form😀Come chat with us: Discord🙏PLEASE help Internal Family Systems reach more people.

"44 min - 122: Jane A. - first call
🔸 Jane's been with an IFS therapist for 6 months, so when she shows up today with an exile, we go straight through.
🔹 Part (Location, Fear, Rather be doing, Age, Needs):- 2nd grade, guilt, shame. Having to be an adult
- back of throat
- afraid of not being acknowledged, understood, not being able to enjoy the things she loves, her sister's wellbeing
- needs to hang out with Self, free to sing and dance
🎓 What I'd like to do differently:First time caller. Did i spend enough time and ask the right questions to ensure we were safe in handling exile? Re the end: I know she’s into IFS, so I didn’t feel too much pressure to hear the check-in plan. But it continues to be a struggle for me, that shift from inner work to “making plans / promises”-----🗳 Send anonymous feedback to James: Feedback Form😀Come chat with us: Discord🙏PLEASE help Internal Family Systems reach more people.

"1 hr 12 min - 121: Ian A. revisits
🔸 This is different. I try to make good on my commitment to followup with an exile, but that "shoveler" was from the wrong notes, wrong caller. Sorry, Ian. Still, Self is present & we make progress, but how many of us are in the room…?
🔹 Part (Location, Fear, Rather be doing, Age, Needs):🎓 What I'd like to do differently:Ok I need a better note-taking system.As a student, I see so much to unpack and review in this call...
Yes I had suspicions from the start when it seemed too easy to go to this exile. And then I talked too much, from naive optimism that maybe all was well. In hindsight, obviously, there was a lot I could have done differently there.
I didn’t feel like I had the right language or the freedom to say what I was seeing sooner. And perhaps my own parts are ashamed or resentful of what I am calling the “no problem” part.
But I did see it sooner, as “how does he feel?” was never answered straight, or in the use of “I think…”.
I was just winging it with the “go journal on it” suggestion. I didn’t know how else to work here. I could have gone direct access, etc, sooner.
Finally, thinking “should I just say what I see?” Cuz I feel like that’s the least I can do. ""If I fail as a 'practitioner', in that moment, I can at least be an honest witness.""
I'm praying we hear from Ian again, I want to get this right.
**UPDATE** He just texted me the list!
Here it is:
**Jibberish**
- - Excitement of death
- - Routine announcements
- - Routines
- - 10 year old being in routines
- - Being tired of excitements, all kinds
- - Never too late vs death
- - Never too late vs never trying
- - Excitement seeking and avoidance
- - Avoidance of bad experience, and good ones because the 10 year old felt inadequate
- - Being offered things and rejecting them, despite a fun excitement being involve

🔸 Jo reports some healing since contacting the baby; what a shift In this protector! We do a lot of just talk about IFS.
🔹 Part (Location, Fear, Rather be doing, Age, Needs):- The part that doesn’t want to do checkins

- Rather be at the beach
- Needs Jo to do the checkins!
🎓 What I'd like to do differently:I committed to following up on the baby. The baby is my client. This maybe not the most connecting conversation but I'm thrilled to witness the progress.-----🗳 Send anonymous feedback to James: Feedback Form😀Come chat with us: Discord🙏PLEASE help Internal Family Systems reach more people.

"42 min - 119: Luke A. revisits
🔸 Is LiveIFS a cult? Deception, marriage. Parts are still a'rumblin', but compare this to our first call. He's doing the work; will it pay off?
🔹 Part (Location, Fear, Rather be doing, Age, Needs):- The part that omits/deceives
- In the jaw/face, numb
- Afraid of being unlovable, afraid of the unknown in other's thoughts
- Needs to have this conversation with wife.
🎓 What I'd like to do differently:Plenty of cause for concern here! I'm committed to not pushing. I'm not selling James, and I'm not selling LiveIFS. The proposition remains: you have parts, and you can work with them by getting to know them.-----🗳 Send anonymous feedback to James: Feedback Form😀Come chat with us: Discord🙏PLEASE help Internal Family Systems reach more people.

1 hr 10 min - 118: Alexander A. - first call

🔹 Part (Location, Fear, Rather be doing, Age, Needs):- Butterflies re: the end of summer and the golden hour
- Chest
- Fear of wasting life, fear of boredom
- Thinks he's 12
- Needs to be met with again, to figure out what's next
🎓 What I'd like to do differently:My "teaching" is mere speculating; I'm not very comfortable with it. I expect to be wrong, or unskillful there. I guess I'm just warning you, dear listener: don't believe I have the answers.-----🗳 Send anonymous feedback to James: Feedback Form😀Come chat with us: Discord🙏PLEASE help Internal Family Systems reach more people.

43 min - 116: Hanna A. - first call

🔹 Part (Location, Fear, Rather be doing, Age, Needs):- The rage, the fire
- Afraid of the injustices, to others and herself
- Rather be a powerful policeman, alert, without the fire
- Thinks she's a child, preteen
- Needs to be listened to
🎓 What I'd like to do differently:I was surprised to learn today that Hanna has not listened to the podcast, and was unaware of exactly what I do! I often make assumptions about how people find me, and need to find more ways to pre-empt that.-----🗳 Send anonymous feedback to James: Feedback Form😀Come chat with us: Discord🙏PLEASE help Internal Family Systems reach more people.
