What happens when we say yes too often—and at the expense of ourselves? In this episode, I explore how Internal Family Systems (IFS) can help us reassess our boundaries, reconnect with our inner wisdom, and make more self-led choices. Together, we’ll reflect on the parts of us that feel stretched thin, people-pleasing, or creatively blocked—and how gentle boundary work can bring relief, clarity, and renewal.

I’ll also guide you through practical tools to support your self-care and creative rhythms, inviting you to tend to your parts with compassion and curiosity.

Summary:

In this session, Tim Fortescue guides listeners through a reflective journey, encouraging them to pause and assess their internal progress halfway through the year. He emphasizes the importance of recognizing and embracing different parts of oneself, fostering compassion, and the transformative power of taking time to listen to one's inner voice. The session highlights the significance of self-acceptance and the potential for creativity that arises from moments of stillness.

We’re halfway through the year—and that’s a perfect time to pause, reflect, and reconnect with your parts.

In this episode, Tim guides a gentle Internal Family Systems (IFS) check-in with three powerful questions:

• What progress have I made in my internal work?

• How have my relationships with my parts evolved?

• What goals or intentions do I have for the rest of the year?

Tim also shares a personal story about his “flight” part and how simple moments of presence opened space for creativity and calm.

No perfect plan needed. Just a breath. A pause. A moment of compassion.
