Episode notes
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
- Everyone has multiple "parts" within them, similar to an internal family.
- These parts, like subpersonalities, interact in systemic patterns and can be influenced by trauma.
Parts and Roles
- Trauma can force valuable parts of us into extreme roles, like exiles, managers, or firefighters.
- These roles, while potentially destructive, were likely needed at the time of the trauma.
The Self
- Beyond these parts exists the "Self," a state of confidence, compassion, and clarity.
- When parts feel safe, the Self emerges and knows how to heal.
