77. Healing Dissociation with IFS | How to ACTUALLY Love Yourself (without affirmations) 🖤

In this chapter reading from You Can Trust Yourself, Emily shares a raw and metaphorical story of dissociation as a protective part. Through the lens of Internal Family Systems (IFS), she illustrates how even the parts we shame—like disconnecting from our bodies—are working tirelessly to protect us. By inviting her “fire captain” of dissociation in for tea, Emily shows how compassion, patience, and radical gratitude can transform disconnection into deeper embodiment and Self-Trust.🎧 IFS Episode🎧 Invite Your Fears to Tea EpisodeGet Your FREE Sample Pack of LMNT electrolyte packetsDEEPEN YOUR SELF-TRUST WORK:Buy You Can Trust YourselfBuy Can People Really ChangeGet the books + more: The Self-Trust Marketplace1-1 Session with EmilyCONNECT WITH EMILY: Have questions or topics you'd like to hear about?
