S2 E1 | The Art and Science of IFS

The Besties are back!!!

It's Season 2 of the Self Led Besties Podcast, and in this first episode, Christine, Hallie, and David have a playful conversation about both the art and science of Internal Family Systems. They laugh, get deep and personal, and mix a lot of great metaphors.

And, stay tuned for the lightning round in which Hallie reads many of her inspired sticky notes and everyone responds with one sentence! Please share in the comments the ways in which you experience IFS as both an art and a science, or what your desk notes might say. :) We'd love to hear from you!
