About this listen

How do we make sense of the way one mind can want so many conflicting things at once? In this episode, we explore the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model as a way to understand our own inner conflicts, how the mind organizes itself for psychological self-defense, the way Jesus restructures the human personality, and why your mind is a flock of belligerent sheep needing a shepherd.
