Taking Over Your Internal Boardroom

 *Leading Your Internal Boardroom: Healing with IFS Therapy & EMDR* Welcome to Season 3, Episode 2 of "Where to Find Bread" with your host, Teri Murrison. Have you ever felt like someone else was pulling the strings in your life Today, I’m getting personal about a struggle I’ve had my entire life: control of the "internal boardroom". In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain and sharing how I took back control using Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy and EMDR. I'll introduce you to the protective "parts" of my personality, from Madam Chair to Chatty Cathy, and even the "exiled" parts I found hiding in the dark hold of my internal ship. Plus, I share a massive epiphany about the "Rusty Gate" that changed my entire outlook on rejection. (As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.) *What You Will Learn in This Episode:* - The Rusty Gate Epiphany: Why rejection is often just protection from a dysfunctional situation. - Internal Family Systems (IFS): A deep dive into Richard Schwartz's model of therapy and how it works. - Meeting My Parts: Understanding Madam Chair, Chatty Cathy, Miss Independence, and more. - The Trap Door: Bringing my exiled, shamed parts back into the light for true healing. - The 8 C's of Self: How to restore your core self to lead with calmness, clarity, and courage. *Resources & Links:* - My Thriving Resources Page: http://wheretofindbread.us/thriving-resources - Internal Family Systems (IFS) Institute: https://ifs-institute.com/ - "No Bad Parts" by Richard Schwartz: http://wheretofindbread.us/resources/ *Video Chapters:* 00:00 - Introduction: Who is Running Your Internal Boardroom? 01:15 - The Rusty Gate Epiphany: Rejection is Protection 02:37 - Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy Explained 04:14 - The 8 C's of Self & Restoring Balance 05:01 - Meeting My Internal Parts (Madam Chair, Chatty Cathy) 09:50 - The Trap Door: Healing My Exiled Parts 11:41 - Testing My New Self-Leadership 13:59 *Please leave a comment:* I read every single one!
