Moving from the Wounded Self and into Your Power with Dr. Robyn McKay

from Reclaiming Consciousness · host Alyse Bacine

"We all have three different ego states. We have a parent ego state, we have an adult ego state, and we have a child ego state and we toggle between these three ego states all day every day."Ever wondered why you sometimes react to a minor business hurdle or a comment from your partner as if it’s a life-or-death situation? In this episode, I’m sitting down with my long-time friend, Dr. Robyn McKay, to explore the psychological machinery behind our reactions. We’re talking about Transactional Analysis, a modality that perfectly bridges the gap between clinical psychology and the deep work we do in spaces like The Metamorphosis.We explore the three ego states: the Parent, the Adult, and the Child, and how they dictate how you communicate with yourself and the world. For many of you, childhood wounds or ancestral healing needs may show up as a "critical parent" internal voice or a "wounded child" reaction to expansion. When you’re stuck in these states, you’re not leading; you’re reacting. Robyn and I discuss how to shift from being "Velcro" to triggers, where every criticism sticks and drains your energy, to being "Teflon." By bringing awareness to these patterns, you can finally move into your adult power, where choice and personal creativity live.TODAY'S HIGHLIGHTSUnderstanding the psychological history behind modern healing practicesRobyn’s personal pivot - what sparked her own inner child healingThe history of transactional analysisDecoding the three ego statesWhat neural networks are activated when you are in different ego statesThe parent script – responding to situations exactly the way our caregivers didRecognizing maternal patterns and the "freeze" responseHow to regulate your system so external triggers stop sticking to your energyAwareness as the ultimate tool**WAYS TO ENTER MY WORLD**  When you leave a review of the podcast, send us a screenshot and we'll send you a $250 credit, you can apply to anything else in my world.The Metamorphosis starts January 20th.
