    IFS and Healing Through Stories with Boo Trundle

    IFS and Healing Through Stories with Boo Trundle

    On this week’s episode I chat with Boo Trundle about her IFS-inspired novel, The Daughter Ship. Boo is a writer, artist, and performer whose work has appeared across various platforms and publications, including The Brooklyn Rail, McSweeney’s Internet Tendency, and NPR’s The Moth. She has released three albums of original music with Big Deal Records. 

    I absolutely loved this book and the way she blended years of inner child work and IFS therapy to create the unique Parts perspective she uses to write the novel. She shares her process of discovering and relating to different parts and learning how to tell their stories. We identify legacy burdens, ancestral guides, and which character in the novel represents her true Self.

    We talk about:

    • Using IFS to inform and transform her writing (3:00)

    • The unique storytelling of the novel telling her Parts’ stories (7:00)

    • Her journey discovering her Parts and learning their stories (12:00)

    • Writing as a healing and spiritual experience (16:00)

    • Connecting with Self and ancestral guides during a summer writing workshop (20:00)

    • Identifying which character in the novel represents her true Self (33:00)

    IFS and The Council for Indigenous IFS with Julia Sullivan and Gregg Paisley

    IFS and The Council for Indigenous IFS with Julia Sullivan and Gregg Paisley

    On today's episode I chat with Julia Sullivan and Gregg Paisley, two of the authors of the Altogether Us book chapter on Embodying IFS with Native American Clients. They are members of The Council for Indigenous IFS, and this is the focus of this episode.

    Julia Sullivan, MBA (she/her) is a social activist who integrates her Latina roots (Ralámuli descent), Indigenous spirituality, and all she gained from being one of the first Latinas to earn an MBA from the Stanford Graduate School of Business. After 30 years in executive leadership and organizational development, she now brings Self leadership to people using Internal Family Systems (IFS). She co-founded the Council for Indigenous IFS to create a forum for cross-tribal learning and resource sharing. Julia convenes Self Led Leaders, a global community of coaches and consultants bringing IFS-informed practices to business, as well as Cornsilk, which brings these practices to the general public. Julia relaxes with frequent walks around a lake with her IFS-trained husband, Chris, basking in the beauty of nature.
     
    Gregg Paisley, MBA (he/him) spent most of his career in the private sector, working as a senior executive in SMB, NASDAQ, and Fortune 500 enterprise software and hardware companies, as well as in professional audio/video/lighting. An enrolled Blackfeet (Amskapi Piikani band), he is one of the few American Indians fortunate enough to have walked that path. Late in life he came to the epiphany that the only possible reason the Creator would shower such undeserved blessings and resources on him is so he could help others find their own blessings. Since retiring from industry in 2003, he has focused on creating jobs, increasing tribal household incomes, and providing social services (especially for under-served tribal children) on a large Montana reservation. Gregg is a member of the Council for Indigenous IFS. In his spare time, Gregg relaxes as a musician on keyboards and guitar. He stays connected to the land in both the Pacific Northwest and northern Montana.

    IFS and New Years Resolutions by Enneagram Type (Parts!) with Joan Ryan

    IFS and New Years Resolutions by Enneagram Type (Parts!) with Joan Ryan

    On today's episode, Joan Ryan and I talk about New Years resolutions that may be generated by the Parts of us found in our Enneagram Type. We know that Parts inside Type are our Major Players in our system. The Enneagram gives us a short cut to bring awareness to these parts, to help us unblend, and to bring more Self energy forward.

    We have done lots of podcasts on this subject (and wrote a book chapter in Altogether Us). You can listen to those episodes here (there is a new search feature on my website!):  Our podcasts episodes on tammysollenberger.com

    Are you new to the enneagram and want to know more? We have an introduction to the Integration of IFS with the Enneagram coming in January 2023. Do you know a lot about both models? We will be running a group soon. Go to either of our websites to find out more!

    Happy New Year!

    IFS and Neuro-differences with Candice Christiansen and Meg Martinez

    IFS and Neuro-differences with Candice Christiansen and Meg Martinez

    On today's episode, I chat with Meg Martinez and Candice Christiansen who wrote a chapter in Altogether Us entitled, "Embodying IFS with Neurodivergent Clients: A Neuro-inclusive approach for therapists."

    Candice Christiansen is an adult-diagnosed Autistic female and licensed clinician with 20 years experience specializing in working with Neurodivergent older teens and adults. As the Founder and Clinical Director of Namaste Center For Healing In Salt Lake City, Utah, Candice uses IFS along with her and Meg's Neuro-Inclusive Approach to IFS with all their clients.
     
    Meg Martinez-Dettamanti is a licensed clinician, IFS therapist, and Chief Program Officer at Namaste Center For Healing, where she has worked closely with Candice for nearly a decade. Meg has a Neurodifferent family and has been an advocate for Neurodifferent individuals and other marginalized populations throughout her career. Meg uses IFS along with her and Candice's Neuro-Inclusive Approach to IFS with all their clients.
     
    We talk about:
    - Candice and Meg's stories
    - What neuro- difference means (and why they do not use the term 'divergent')
    - Hardware- it is NOT PARTS
    - Asking about and being aware of Neuro- Culture
    - Goal 1: Use curiosity with Neurodifferent clients around their sensory, learning, and internal system needs.
    - Goal 2: Access Self-energy to navigate a client’s need for safety if microaggressions occur.
    - Goal 3: Explore therapist’s individual, legacy, and cultural burdens related to implicit bias, judgment, and stereotypes against Neurodifferent individuals.
    - Goal 4: Creatively implement IFS mapping exercises with Neurodifferent clients to flesh out Neurodifferent traits vs. client parts

    IFS and Tending the Soul with Valerie Louis

    IFS and Tending the Soul with Valerie Louis
    On today's episode I chat with Valerie Louis, SEP, PhD who is a level 3 trained certified IFS practitioner. Valerie is passionate about working with therapists, practitioners, healers, and educators for personal and professional development.
     
    We talk about:
     
    - Spirituality and IFS as a Soul Tending process
     
    - How practitioners can be 'better' and not get burned out
     
    - What leading from curiousity and compassion means
     
    - A possilbe 3rd element, not just the binary of Self and Part where personality and nervous system exist
     
    - IFS being in the realm of the Healer and in the spiritual world, not just an evidence based practice
     
    - How IFS is suited to root us out of compulsory culture and into living a life that is more in line with our desires and nature (here would be things like relationship structures, communication styles, neurodivergent, autistic, and the concept that continual self and regulation is not the goal.)
     
    ---
    I LOVED the spiritual focus and FEELING this conversation left me experiencing. Valerie talks about living, existing, and BEING as if there is no divide between our spiritual life, our spiritual practices, and our daily life. Because there really is not.
     
    But the focus really is on seeing IFS as a soul tending process, as something sacred and miraculous.
     
    Enjoy.

    IFS and PATH to 12- Step Recovery Program with Nadine Lucas

    IFS and PATH to 12- Step Recovery Program with Nadine Lucas

    November 2023: UPDATE from Nadine – Please note that I am no longer affiliated with the PATH Program. This podcast represents my personal journey from two years ago as I was trying to integrate my 30-year experience with overeaters anonymous and my understanding of Internal Family Systems. Currently I am focusing on providing IFS therapy and workshops related to eating disorders, addiction, and trauma. For more information, Please visit my website at https://compassionbasedhealing.com/  

    -------

    Happy 2021! I thought it would be a good way to start the year by talking about IFS and the 12 steps as so. many. of. us. will make goals around changing behaviors we do not like (or PARTS of us do not like!).

    I'm super excited to chat with my guest Nadine Lucas, Level 2 IFS trained, who has converted the 12 step program into IFS language called PATH- Program for Addiction and Trauma Healing.

    We chat about her struggle with the God language in 12 Step programs and her pull to return again and again for the community and connection.

    Nadine has begun a very popular 12 step and IFS program that is just in the beginning stages.

    We talk a lot of OA (Overeaters Anonymous) and the Power of the Self (power seems to need a Capital letter here).

    The first half is her story and the 2nd half is about reframing the first three steps. The 2nd half is rich with IFS concepts like Self, firefighters, burdens, exiles, and healing. We talk about 'Are parts addicted?'

    Stay tuned for the Heirloom Summit link where you can receive a discount on your enrollment!

    Enjoy!

    IFS and Embodying IFS with Black Clients with Fatimah FInney

    IFS and Embodying IFS with Black Clients with Fatimah FInney

    On today's episode I chat with Fatimah Finney who wrote a chapter in the Altogether Us book entitled, "Embodying IFS with Black Clients."

    Listening to this epsiode this week could not be more timely as the last thing we talk about is Collective Healing. Fatimah says, "My liberation is your liberation.. what is happening across the globe impacts us."

    Fatimah is a licensed mental health counselor, skilled DEI consultant and workshop facilitator. She enjoys existing as a Black Muslim Woman and apparently loves buying books she doesn't get to read. Her toddlers are her tormentors and daily doses of Self energy! 
     
    We talk about:
    - Speak about race, it is already in the room
    - Recognizing dominance and power positions in txp
    - Importance of working with therapist's parts (always!) but NOT in session with your black client
    - Connection and Compassion can exist when there is not 'sameness', when there is a limit to my 'getting it'
    - Giving clients the floor to tell their own story
    - Importance of intentional community
    - Black Joy
    - Intercultural competence: how can we engage in differences in a connecting way
    - "Being with the beauty and the wonder of the person who is in front of me."
    - Knowing where your line of knowledge ends and begins
    - Leadership development- What is the point of your power? How do you get and recieve feedback?
    - Collective healing

    It is a really beautiful episode.

    IFS and Adoptees with Kathy Mackechney

    IFS and Adoptees with Kathy Mackechney

    On today's podcast I chat with Kathy Mackechney, who wrote a chapter in Altogether Us.

    Kathy is a relinquishee-adoptee whose purpose is helping other adoptees heal the burdens of having been relinquished, or removed, and adopted. She is a Level-3 trained, IFS-certified therapist and consultant wtih a private practice in Denver.

    We talk about:

    • Helping adoptees feel heard and understood
    • Shifting language from adoption-industry and adoptive-parent-centric perspective to language that centers the experience of the person who was relinquished, and therefore needed to be adopted- hence the term 'relinquishee' or 'survivor of infant-mother separation'
    • Educating 'biologicals' about why adoptees should be recognized as a marginalized group
    • Why 'Not all Parts Get Adopted"
    • How Self gets exiled
    • Importance of using Implicit Direct Access
    • Possible Parts who may be found (Not me, Dismissed, sense of being alone, Relationship stressors, Control, Self doubt, Second quessing).

    IFS and Shame and Guilt with Martha Sweezy

    IFS and Shame and Guilt with Martha Sweezy

    On today's podcast I talk with Martha Sweezy. Martha has authored all the IFS books with all the IFS people. Her latest solo book project is entitled, "Internal Family Systems for Shame and Guilt."

    Martha says, "Understanding shame and guilt in the context of psychic multiplicity is to understand how trauma becomes traumatic over time and how an external insult becomes an internal identity and process."

    I took notes.  I think you may want to also.

    Check out all the things Martha Sweezy here: Martha Sweezy, Ph.D. | Assistant Professor, Harvard University Medical School and IFS Therapist in Northampton, Massachusetts

    *She comments on several of her upcoming book projects with various people in the IFS community. The book she is writing on IFS and Psychedlics is with Richard Schwartz, Dave Lovas, and Sunny Strasburg.

    IFS and PAUSE in Parenting with Leslie Petruk

    On today's episode I chat again with Leslie Petruk, IFSI Lead Trainer, who wrote a chapter in the Altogether Us book entitled, "IFS and Parenting: Becoming an In-sightful Parent."

    • "We can only feel Joy at the depth we have felt pain."- true in parenting
    • Difficulty with separating out what is MINE and what is THEIRS
    • Leading from a Self led place and not an Activated Parts place

    She talks briefly about acronyms she describes in the book chapter:

    • S.H.U.V. - how we treat out Inner and External 'kids'
