On today's episode I chat with Paul Neustadt, a lead trainer with the IFS Institute. Paul has such a warm, engaging teaching style and I just loved our conversation.

Paul's answer to the last question, "What would you do instead?" may be my new life goal or at least a daily intention.

We discuss:

1. Creating our own inner circle - when you have a hard time accessing compassion (or Self)

2. Impacts of individualism (our culture) on our parts

3. Tapping into our own inner wisdom

4. The Gifts of our Exiles

5. Paul demonstrates Direct Access with one of my manager parts

6. Degrees of Blending

7. Inviting exiles (the younger parts of us) to 'tune into their true nature, who they really are'

8. Relational Heart Based Activism

9. When Self energy seems impossible. "What is this thing called Self and how do I get it!?"
