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

Carmen Jimenez-Pride, an Assistant Trainer with the IFS Institute and founder of Outspoken Counseling, dives into the fusion of play therapy and Internal Family Systems. She shares insights on sand tray therapy and the importance of parental involvement. Carmen emphasizes creativity in helping children unburden their emotions, while highlighting the Diversity in Play Therapy Summit. She also discusses her journey from macro social work to engaging directly with kids, illustrating how resilience and emotional expression can be fostered through playful techniques.

Certified IFS therapist and sex therapist Patricia Rich discusses self-led sexuality and the 6 S's of sexuality. They explore the broad definition of sexuality, the role of internal parts in managing sexual experiences, and updating internal beliefs about sexuality. They emphasize the importance of pleasure, connection, and self-reflection in the realm of sexuality.

On today's podcast I talk with Dr. Nancy Morgan, Certified IFS Therapist. Nancy wrote the IFS and Psychedelic chapter in the new upcoming book, "Altogether Us" which will be released around August 2023. I spoke with Nancy on episode 47 when we focused her role as Director of LifeMoves Behavioral Health and Training Programs, a California agency dedicated to breaking the cycle of homelessness. Nancy introduced IFS into the training curriculum during the 2015-2016 year. Today, we have a much different discussion. You may be here because you love Nancy and want to know and hear how she is and what is going on with her as she was recently diagnosed with cancer. You may be here and you do not know Nancy personally or professionally, you want to know more about IFS or you want to know about psychedelics. Whatever reason brought you to this episode I am glad you are here, and I feel incredibly honored that Nancy shares her heart and story with us. The first half of this episode is heavier around the history of psychedelics and the integration with IFS. Nancy shares more of her story in the second half, although it is weaved throughout. I start recording as soon as I meet with each guest, and most of that beginning matter is edited out. I decided to leave our entire conversation just as it is.

On today's episode I chat with Madeline Gibson, a Level 3 IFS practitioner and coach living in Lake Como, Italy. Madeline owns and runs Lake Como Wellness, a wellness events and retreat business. She is soon to launch her podcast, "There’s a Part of Me", for the IFS curious, and in the new year will launch a range of free resources around ‘middle lane drinking’ through the IFS lens. Middle Lane drinkers are those who haven't 'hit rock bottom' but feel curious about what life would be like without alcohol. Madeline is almost five years sober after going through that lifestyle transformation herself, shorting before meeting Dick Schwartz on retreat in northern Italy. You can reach out to Madeline on Instagram @the.ifs.coach or email hello@theifs.coach ---- Madeline encourages us to be curious as we consider that our drinking parts are destined for greater, more Self led roles. She gives 4 reflective questions or journal prompts to deepen our own connection to our internal world.  She says that as long as parts are stuck in protective roles they are not living into their full potential. Check out her website where you can download an ebook, "Middle Lane Drinking: An IFS Approach."
