    It feels so powerless to watch my husband grieve his fathers passing.

  7. Allison Kramer says: March 25, 2016 at 8:50 am

    Wise words woman! Agree completely. Just be there for them.

  8. Nadine Larder says: March 25, 2016 at 8:50 am

    It’s so sad.

  9. Nadine Larder says: March 25, 2016 at 8:51 am

    Oh no!!!! Heartbreaking

  10. Allison Kramer says: March 25, 2016 at 8:53 am

    I except you in your rawest, most vulnerable form.

  11. Nadine Larder says: March 25, 2016 at 8:54 am

    I agree. They need to know they aren’t alone because it feels so alone to have lost someone.

  12. Nadine Larder says: March 25, 2016 at 8:56 am

    No!!!!

  13. Nadine Larder says: March 25, 2016 at 8:57 am

    I’m so sorry Susan. So sorry.

  14. Sarah Skribe Bratchell says: March 25, 2016 at 9:44 am

    I’m so grateful to catch part of this scope. After experiencing multiple heavy losses in my life I had such a paradigm shift listening to you Alli! You gave words to much of what I’ve needed during grief. Was called to create this piece after watching. Peace and blessings to you dear heart.

  15. Heidi Rini Armstrong says: March 25, 2016 at 10:15 am

    Sister!! I’ve listened to this twice already. You are gold.

    So many thoughts…

    1) God bless you.
    2) Your Dad…God bless him for “God bless them”
    3) I love “There’s me and my shit.”
    4) I love that the deck was chewed by foster puppies. I remember a long, long time ago I was watching Oprah and Nate Berkus was giving Oprah a tour of his apartment. He had several pieces of furniture his dogs chewed, and he specifically pointed out he loved it because when that dog’s spirit left his house, the gift of its chewing would remain.
    5) To everyone suffering…You are not alone. You are surrounded by love. I’m praying for you. I love you.
    6) Ahhhh, universe. Your timing. As you pointed out, the turquoise beads in the rosary, and did you notice the color of the Divine Mother’s robe? Turquoise.
    7) Thank you for witnessing my pain this week.
    8) I believe that in order for someone hold space for and witness another’s pain, she or he must have walked through pain. The folks that toss out an “everything has a purpose” is throwing something out they believe will be comforting and running…because they aren’t comfortable sitting with another’s pain. You have to have tasted life’s shit burgers in order to sit down and dine on one with someone else who has just been served.
    9) I. LOVE. YOU.

  16. Heidi Rini Armstrong says: March 25, 2016 at 10:15 am

    Francine-Thank you for loving me exactly as I was this week. ❤️

    • Allison Crow says: March 25, 2016 at 4:21 pm

      Love received and sent back multiplied. It was an honor to pray with my new rosary… I did some hail mary’s and a few our fathers and lots of god blessing specific names!

    • Heidi Rini Armstrong says: March 25, 2016 at 4:22 pm

      ❤️❤️❤️You and I pray the rosary the same way. It’s something to hold and something to ground me while I meditate or pray (structured prayers or my own).

    Yes, I try to make sense too. My friend Laura’s passing has really shown me there is no sense to be made.
    The biggest heart, the most wonderful, life loving 38 yr old gets stomach cancer? Nonsensical.

    • Allison Crow says: March 25, 2016 at 4:37 pm

      it is heartbreaking. I am here with you. I see your pain love. I’m holding space for you

    • Lindsay Murdoch says: March 25, 2016 at 5:35 pm

      Thank you ❤️

Each emotion is a part of your system trying to communicate something important about your needs. By listening with empathy to these parts, you deepen your understanding of yourself and build emotional intelligence. This practice of compassionate inquiry helps you strengthen your connection to your internal experience and empowers you to respond in a way that aligns with your true Self.

Overthink Much? I have this mental ideal that is Overthink Much?

I have this mental ideal that is embedded in my brain that I would be able to wake up and move forward with all my intentions.  I can see the clear direction and simple steps. I can envision all the "results" and the relief I make up those results would bring. 

One of the things I'm teaching myself to do - is try to write more from a professional voice for you instead of blab in inner processing out on this little white pop-up box. 

How's that working, Alli?

Buahahahah.... all my sweet and striving little parts trying to hold my life closely to that ideal.  I sense the squirm of these parts in my body even when my "thinking" is clear.

I now know this to be a signal for me to slow down and meet those parts with calm and curiosity. First, I must get past one of my sneakiest and most powerful parts—my "awareness" part. This is not Awareness from my core self. 
In IFS - we call these self-like parts. The distinction is that the awareness part carries the burden and tone of "You're doing it wrong."

I asked my clients to notice the part of them that is "mindful and self-aware." What are the words that the voice uses? What is its tone? 

Is it SELF-calm and compassionate, deeply connected? Or is it cognitive and managerial with a motive? 

OOOOF...sending sweet love and compassion to all my thinking, overthinking, and trying-to-get-it-right-for-some-imaginaryideal-parts, and to yours. 

These parts need our somatic connection and attunement. They do not need judgment and alienation. They are scared and holding ages of fear and pain. 

Hello, inner managers, and judgers, and thinkers.  I see you.  I am here for you.  I see your skills.  You have done nothing wrong.  No matter what you feel, you deserve more love, not less.  Let's just breathe together, and then you can share your fears and concerns.  I am here for you.  I will not leave you.
This sweet girl. Only a few taco Tuesday’s left This sweet girl. Only a few taco Tuesday’s left before they move across the state.
In the IFS community, we call triggers "trailheads In the IFS community, we call triggers "trailheads" or say, "This part of me is really activated." Identifying and caring for emotionally reactive parts gives us the opportunity to respond with intention rather than impulsively. By practicing emotional regulation and internal partswork, you can create space between stimulus and response, allowing for more thoughtful and grounded decision-making.

For me, it was the fear I would disintegrate and b For me, it was the fear I would disintegrate and be insignificant.  For many, it's attached to conditional love.  IFS coaching helped me in places typical coaching couldn't.  It helped me compassionately understand and connect with these parts - and ya know what? They began to relax, build trust, and step back, leaving space for my natural creativity, grounded confidence, and clarity to lead in my work & life.  This is available to you.  #ifscoaching
