Episode notes

Jessica has a 10-year-old son who is having issues with video games. She and her husband have tried all different methods, whether it's taking things away or trying to talk it to staff but nothing seems to be working. Dr. Becky says we often go to convincing them out versus understanding why that thing happens in the first place. And so I think this is generalizable to everything with kids Amanda.

1. How to make peace inside your own head by getting to know your “parts.”

2. Why our “manager,” “firefighter,” and “exile” parts are running our lives – and how to get them to step back.

3. How Glennon is using Internal Family Systems in her eating disorder recovery process.

4. Understanding that the parts of you that you might struggle with most right now were originally developed by you to protect you.

5. How to tap into your wisest, most trustworthy self.
