Episode notes
IFS Core Concept
- Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy views the self as comprising multiple sub-personalities or "parts."
- These parts, including protectors and exiles, interact and influence our behavior.
Parts and Their Roles
- IFS suggests that our "parts" have distinct roles, like managers, firefighters, and exiles.
- Each part has positive intentions, even if their actions are counterproductive.
