On today's episode I chat with Patricia Rich. This is her 2nd appearance on the podcast. The first was entitled Self-Led Sexuality and that is what we talk about today- which involves a whole lot more then you may think. I appreciate Patty inviting us over and over again to check in with our parts as we talk, knowing we are covering sensitive topics. We also have a lot of laughter and distracted parts. My favorite thing Patty says is towards the end where she talks about the 6 S's of sexuality (which she covers in the first episode in detail). She asks us to consider what is between us and certain S words. I encourage you to consider this idea and be with all the parts who may come up as you listen. Patty is a Certified IFS Therapist and Approved Consultant and an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist and Supervisor. She has developed a unique integrative model for helping people to feel more ease, joy and confidence in the realm of sexuality and has originated IFS-informed concepts such as Internal Consent and The Six S’s of Sexual Self-Energy. Patty has presented at the IFS Annual Conference, taught a module for the IFS Institute Online Continuity program, and led workshops internationally. She offers training and consultation to professionals and offers opportunities to BeHold and Lead your Internal Sexual Systems (BLISS).

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. You can find out more about Nancy here: Internal Family Systems | The Guide Inside | Dr. Nancy L. Morgan (the-guide-inside.com) You can find the Go fund me link to support Nancy here: Fundraiser for Nancy Morgan by Michele Lucas : Nancy L.

NOTE Added March 2023 from Nadine Lucas: DISCLAIMER – This podcast with Tammy Sollenberger was presented in January of 2021 and is outdated. It is important to note that PATH to Healing Addiction and Underlying Trauma is not a 12-step 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. I respect 12-step programs and prefer to continue my healing with IFS and PATH, guided by Self. Please explore the PATH website and see how we have evolved! www.path2recovery.org  ------- 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?' Check out Nadine's Psych today page- here Stay tuned for the Heirloom Summit link where you can receive a discount on your enrollment! Enjoy!

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.

Attachment: the nervous system and inner and outer coregulation with parents, children, partners, clients and therapists 2.

When they actually get connection from Self they realize it is not settling at all. And- We don't need to lean in to our partners from our young parts.

On today's podcast I chat with Brian Jaudon, an IFS-trained coach who works with a wide range of clients from executives and entrepreneurs to shamans and creatives. Brian has led two highly successful IFS and Coaching courses and has been around the IFS world for a long time. We chatted a few times offline when I started the podcast a few years ago so I love that he is the last guest for season 3. We have a sweet conversation- the best kind I think for the podcast- it has a lot of interesting information about IFS, Gift Development, asking good questions, Contracting, working with Parts. But the best part is the authentic connection and the conversation that flows so naturally from that. I'm so grateful to him and to all the guests and listeners who make this so fun and rewarding.  Check out all the great things Brian has coming up here- especially his own coaching institute!

Then we give space to experience the ripple that comes from it. We chatted afterwards about ALL the things and he did this for me- he asked the right question, in the right moment and let silence sit for a minute. The question and the curiosity I have about it continues to ripple. I'll see you in the fall for season 4.... Enjoy. 

On today's episode I chat with Payam, a Psychedelic Somatic Internal Family Systems Practitioner who interfaces with various traditional and non-traditional psychedelic compounds in the treatment of trauma and chronic pain.  He collaborates internationally with world-renowned doctors and therapists in the treatment of an underserved population. Additionally, he has presented his work at numerous medical conferences reporting on the nature of pain through the unitary Mind-Body paradigm while also demonstrating how to alleviate pain at the intersection of traditional shamanic psychedelic medicines and Western evidence-based practices.  His work factors in the biopsychosocial and spiritual elements of healing. By acknowledging and addressing the totality of the human experience, he has seen firsthand how it can have a dramatic effect on mitigating the patient’s affective experience of pain.  --- Check out Payam's website here: PAYAM and follow him on Instagram @payam_healing. ---- To connect with me, follow me @ifstammy on Instagram and Twitter or on The One Inside Facebook Page.

On today's episode I chat with Dr. Tanner Wallace, an IFS trained practitioner who is at the helm of the survivor-led trauma recovery revolution. She guides adults with complex trauma on relationship healing journeys so that they reclaim everything they lost along the way. This episode is amazing for many reasons- what I especially love about it is I think it will be helpful for people new to the IFS model and for people who get overwhelmed and flooded when they go inside. Tanner offers practical, helpful tips about working with your system in her gently, loving, and warm way. ---- Check out her podcast (CPTSD Medicine) here: https://open.spotify.com/show/24XxXcL4BPz2fUrNv4Pv0M?si=679ef7cdea3843fc Follow her on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cptsdmedicine/ ---- To connect with me, follow @ifstammy on Instagram and Twitter or at The One Inside Facebook Page.
