In this episode of Going Inside: Healing Trauma From the Inside Out, I guide my client “Laura” through a live Internal Family Systems demo. We delve into her struggles with depression post-college, the pressure from unmet expectations, and her journey towards self-compassion and understanding. 

 Key Takeaways:

1. Depression and Unmet Potential: Laura opens up about how she felt lost and immobilized by depression after graduating from college, this made her feel stuck and disconnected from the things she loved and studied for.
2. Spirit Guides: We connect with one of Laura's spirit guides who appears as a younger part from that tough time.
3. Self-Compassion: I guide Laura in having a compassionate conversation with this part, acknowledging the shame and grief she felt during that time.
