The One Inside: An Internal Family Systems (IFS) podcast

Leadership, Legacy, and Loss with Mel Galbraith

Dec 6, 2024
36:40

On today's episode I chat with Mel Galbraith, Chief Operating Officer of IFSCA (Internal Family Systems Counselling Association), to discuss her journey of grief, leadership, and transformation following the passing of Derek Scott, founder of IFSCA. Mel shares deeply personal stories about her connection with Derek, the legacy he left behind, and how stepping into a leadership role has shaped her life and relationship with her parts.

Our conversation touches on the complexities of grief and the ways IFS has been instrumental in navigating Mel's professional and personal challenges. She also discusses exciting new initiatives at IFSCA, including advanced courses and community connection opportunities, ensuring Derek’s vision continues.

Key Takeaways:

  • Grief often reveals deep attachment wounds, serving as a trailhead for healing and growth.
  • Leadership through a Self-Led lens involves embracing imperfection, authenticity, and connection with all our parts.
  • How can grief and loss act as a catalyst for personal transformation and deeper connection to Self?
  • IFSCA’s new offerings like Stepping Deeper and Demo Days
  • Authentic connection and shared passions can create profound bonds
