    Hi sister!

  7. Angela Paris says: December 9, 2016 at 3:38 pm

    Shame makes me feel nautious, literally and sometimes I wake up with it

  8. Cathy Osborne says: December 9, 2016 at 3:38 pm

    Thank you! ???

  9. Angela Paris says: December 9, 2016 at 3:39 pm

    Never tried that going to try it

  10. Vicky Hemming says: December 9, 2016 at 3:39 pm

    Compassion/acceptance

  11. Miriam Linderman says: December 9, 2016 at 3:39 pm

    Acceptance

  12. Cathy Osborne says: December 9, 2016 at 3:39 pm

    Pride? Self-celebration?

  13. Diana Cheek Servis Dunklau says: December 9, 2016 at 3:39 pm

    Serenity

  14. Stephanie Lynn says: December 9, 2016 at 9:39 am

    Opposite is pride

  15. Megan Winkler says: December 9, 2016 at 9:40 am

    SO true!!

  16. Angela Paris says: December 9, 2016 at 9:40 am

    So true xxx

  23. Rosie Bernardo says: December 9, 2016 at 9:41 am

    Here it is again– I think shame is teaching me to slow down before I make big decisions and stop being impulsive –to grow up

  24. Vicky Hemming says: December 9, 2016 at 9:42 am

    This message fills me with pride, appreciation, compassion and gratitude for exploring my shame, learning from it, growing… it’s been a huge journey xxx ❀️

  26. Michele Lehmann Brown says: December 9, 2016 at 9:42 am

    Awesome work this morning

  27. Angela Paris says: December 9, 2016 at 9:43 am

    Resonates

  28. Angela Paris says: December 9, 2016 at 9:43 am

    Wow

  29. Bay LeBlanc Quiney says: December 9, 2016 at 9:43 am

    For me, the work is to notice the feeling with curiosity, as a signal that something needs attention, WITHOUT making it mean anything about me. I have feelings; I am not my feelings.

  30. Vicky Hemming says: December 9, 2016 at 9:43 am

    Yes Bay ❀️

  31. Vicky Hemming says: December 9, 2016 at 3:43 pm

    Yes Bay

  32. Rosie Bernardo says: December 9, 2016 at 9:43 am

    I’m 44

  33. Stephanie Lynn says: December 9, 2016 at 9:44 am

    I just turned 45.. forever 28!

  34. Bay LeBlanc Quiney says: December 9, 2016 at 9:44 am

    It’s extra tricky as I learn to use my sensitivity, not be run by it.

  35. Nanci Johnsen says: December 9, 2016 at 9:46 am

    Hi Goodmorning, this is awesome

  36. Rosie Bernardo says: December 9, 2016 at 9:46 am

    I think what hurts is feeling like I’m the only one! The only one who makes mistakes

  37. Bay LeBlanc Quiney says: December 9, 2016 at 9:46 am

    Like Harry Potter in the 1st movie

  38. Cathy Osborne says: December 9, 2016 at 9:46 am

    Shame makes me shrink into someone small…the opposite of that is rising up and “assuming my full stature”

  39. Stephanie Lynn says: December 9, 2016 at 9:46 am

    <

  40. Cathy Osborne says: December 9, 2016 at 9:47 am

    Sensitive!

  41. Diana Cheek Servis Dunklau says: December 9, 2016 at 9:47 am

    <3

  42. Stephanie Lynn says: December 9, 2016 at 9:47 am

    Rosie.. You’re not alone. We all make mistakes. We’re here to learn from them. The best Life Lessons come from our mistakes

  43. Elizabeth Claire Davis says: December 9, 2016 at 9:47 am

    SO NOT THE ONLY ONE

  44. Bay LeBlanc Quiney says: December 9, 2016 at 9:48 am

    Totally. I’ve noticed I use it to help me with people with what’s up, but I use it with me with what’s wrong with me. Not helping…

  45. Miriam Linderman says: December 9, 2016 at 9:48 am

    NOT THE ONLY ONE. OF COURSE…

  46. Kim McReynolds Tierney says: December 9, 2016 at 9:48 am

    Big sham
    e this morning

  47. Casey Rasmussen White says: December 9, 2016 at 9:48 am

    Honesty, the best policy~

  48. Stephanie Lynn says: December 9, 2016 at 9:49 am

    Love that! Be mindful!

  49. Rosie Bernardo says: December 9, 2016 at 9:50 am

    Thank you. I’m taking this in.

  50. Vicky Hemming says: December 9, 2016 at 9:51 am

    So true! ❀️

  51. Elizabeth Claire Davis says: December 9, 2016 at 3:51 pm

    ?

  52. Vicky Hemming says: December 9, 2016 at 9:52 am

    The most powerful things in transforming my shame were- I see you, I hear you, I feel you… I’m here for you! (I won’t abandon you) x Everything is going to be ok… together we can get through this x

  53. Miriam Linderman says: December 9, 2016 at 9:53 am

    Remembering to make a distinction: Is this my personality/ego/thinking mind OR my Inner Wise One/soul/heart/in-the-body Consciousness

  54. Melanie Schroeder says: December 9, 2016 at 9:54 am

    Good morning everyone

  55. Kim McReynolds Tierney says: December 9, 2016 at 9:55 am

    Wow. Very insightful. Projection… very interesting when i stop projecting I have to look at myself.

  56. Stephanie Lynn says: December 9, 2016 at 9:57 am

    This has really been an eye-opener for me.. because I did some of the same things.. I worried about my husband trusting me with my business… and I wasn’t trusting myself enough. I lost faith when those around me didn’t have faith in me. Screw them! I need to just have faith/trust in myself!

  57. Vicky Hemming says: December 9, 2016 at 9:59 am

    Gotta hop… amazing stuff ❀️ from the heart xxx

    Yes. So much should. Love BK

  60. Kim McReynolds Tierney says: December 9, 2016 at 4:01 pm

    How do I deal with someone that “shoulds” all over me daily? Sometimes hourly. ?

  62. Rosie Bernardo says: December 9, 2016 at 10:02 am

    That’s easy. My 144 year old says Fuck them! Keep going! No one’s perfect.

  63. Rosie Bernardo says: December 9, 2016 at 10:02 am

    No. she’s laughing!!!! And smiling

  64. Kim McReynolds Tierney says: December 9, 2016 at 10:03 am

  65. Rosie Bernardo says: December 9, 2016 at 10:03 am

    Yes they

  68. Diana Cheek Servis Dunklau says: December 9, 2016 at 10:03 am

    It’s not so much that I think the judger in my life is right, I just love her and want to spend time with her but she exhausts me with the shoulds. I’ve asked her to stop but she’s convinced she knows what’s right for everyone.

  69. Kathryn Stanley-Hart says: December 9, 2016 at 10:05 am

    • Allison Crow says: December 9, 2016 at 4:26 pm

      Oh yeah. Well clemmo wines at me all the time. so i decided to sing her a song….. very VERY out of tune. It wigged her out – she didn’t know what to make of it and finally lay down on the kitchen mat and just looked at me. Payback is a bitch!

  88. Christy Chick Nash says: December 9, 2016 at 6:53 pm

    Wonderful stuff today!

  89. Cristina Palma says: December 10, 2016 at 6:51 pm

    yes, I do feel like that..and also when you are acting like a “victim” people accept you more, than when you are in “anger” (healthy anger)!

  90. Cristina Palma says: December 10, 2016 at 6:52 pm

    shame tells me to be more “choosy” who you share with, and honor my truth with those I trust.

  91. Cristina Palma says: December 10, 2016 at 7:12 pm

    Like that Rosie Bernardo!

  92. Rosie Bernardo says: December 10, 2016 at 7:14 pm

    445 views! Wow. I’m so happy my question and Allison’s coaching created a good video.

  93. Cristina Palma says: December 10, 2016 at 7:15 pm

    “universe has its own self correcting” love it!

  94. Cristina Palma says: December 10, 2016 at 7:18 pm

    Allison, what do you do when someone is projecting on you, their fears, and this triggers you against them…eventhough I may very well know that it all comes back to me? (she triggers me because I am triggering myself with an “unresolved” issue)

  95. Nadine Larder says: December 11, 2016 at 3:31 pm

    My past is part of my journey … it was all there to teach me something. I am grateful for my past and the journey I’ve been on and what it’s taught me.

  96. Patricia Hamilton says: December 15, 2016 at 9:25 pm

    I had regrets going on for 40yrs.but nothing changed until I realized all the time I had lost. There are never “TAKE BACKS” so better psych up, and focus on what you have to look forward to

Rather than labeling them as good or bad, approach them with curiosity. 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 partsβ€”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
