On today's podcast I chat with Seth Kopald, author of the new book "Self Led."

Seth is a certified, level 3, Internal Family Systems (IFS) Practitioner. He holds a PhD in Organization Management with a Specialization in Leadership and a Masters in Education. His specialties include Self-led Parenting, Parts Art, Spirituality, and creating spaces where people's parts feel safe and understood.

"Self-Led walks you through the building of authentic relationships with yourself and with others. While reading Self-Led, you will gain a thorough understanding of what Internal Family Systems (IFS) refers to as your Self and your parts. You will learn how to form relationships with your parts by listening to and understanding them. You will also learn how to be Self-led in some of the most important aspects of your life: in intimate relationships, at work, while parenting, and in your own spirituality. By becoming Self-led, you will live a more harmonious life."

We talk about:

How to be in relationship with your Parts in all areas of your life (parenting, communication with partners)
Building trust between Self and parts
The importance of parts feeling deeply understood with what Seth calls Exquisite Attunement (What does it mean to be Understood?)
Being with our parts in a way that allows us to be Self-led in all aspects of life
Living life with a non-shaming approach
