You’re Not Broken — You Just Have Parts

Ever feel like you have to keep hustling just to stay visible? In this episode, I share the story of my own “hustle part” — the part that believed, “If I stop being useful, I’ll disappear.”

We’ll explore how Internal Family Systems (IFS) helps us understand our reactive parts, uncover the past experiences that shaped them, and begin the healing journey with self-compassion.

✨ Key themes:

• Why your parts formed in the first place

• How past experiences shape present behavior

• A gentle practice for meeting reactive parts with curiosity

💬 “Every part formed for a reason. They’re trying to keep you safe.”
