Welcome back to another episode of the podcast, this week I'm delving into a fascinating and transformative approach to personal healing and self-discovery.  I explore a model called Internal Family Systems which is a therapeutic framework that offers insights into our inner world and provides tools for healing and integration.  Learning about this was something that helped me greatly in my own personal therapy, it gave me so much insight into parts of self allowing me to deeply heal and grow.

In this episode, I explain what IFS is
The parts of our sub-personalities: managers, firefighters and exile work
I discuss the traits, purpose and how to work with each part of the self.
Ways to integrate IFS into your own healing journey

In this episode of I delve deep into the fascinating world of attachment styles and their profound influence on our relationships. I break down the four primary attachment styles - secure, anxious, avoidant, and fearful-avoidant - helping you gain valuable insights into your own relational behaviours.

Discover how early caregiver relationships and past experiences shape attachment styles and the way we perceive intimacy, trust, and emotional connection. From the security of a nurturing bond to the challenges posed by trauma and neglect, I explore the pivotal role of attachment in shaping who we are in relationships.

In this episode I also chat about the impact trauma has on adult attachment and share ways you can begin to shift into a secure attachment.
