WTF is IFS? Jul 17, 2025

Show notes

Do you ever feel like part of you wants to do one thing, and another wants to do the absolute opposite? YUP. Been there, we get it. Today the gals are finally exploring Internal Family System (IFS), and how to explore these "parts." Spoiler alert: you’re not “too much,” you’re just multi-dimensional, babe.

In this episode of Get Psyched, we’re serving you an easy-to-digest breakdown of IFS, including:

🎙️ What is IFS?

🎙️ Multiplicity vs. Mono-Mind – you’ve got parts, not problems. It doesn't have to be all or nothing.

🎙️ Your protective system – meet the inner bodyguards who work overtime

🎙️ The drama between attachment and authenticity – it’s giving inner conflict

🎙️ Self Energy

IFS helps you go from inner chaos to inner connection. It’s all about un-blending from your anxious achiever, perfectionist, or inner critic—and finding compassion and connection within the system.

Whether you’re new to the therapy scene or already deep in your healing girl era, this episode gives you the tools to start talking to your parts (yes, really) with curiosity instead of criticism.
