Key Topics Discussed:

1. Respecting and Honoring Client Experiences:
Bob and I emphasize the importance of respecting and honoring clients' experiences, even if they involve what seem to be the “unconventional” therapy practices in IFS.

2. Porosity of Mind:
The concept of the porous mind is explored, suggesting that the human mind is permeable and its potential to radically change is infinite.

3. Humility and Curiosity in Therapy:
We discuss the significance of humility and curiosity in therapy, acknowledging that therapists do not possess all the answers and that clients have innate wisdom guiding their healing journey.

4. Facilitating Self-Healing:
The role of therapists in helping clients access their inner wisdom and facilitating self-healing is highlighted, emphasizing empowerment over imposition of external solutions.

5. Upcoming Book:
Bob shares insights into his upcoming book, "When You're Going Through Hell, Keep Going," which explores healing, spirituality, and resilience, offering a deeper understanding of the human experience.

    I lost faith in IFS last year after my therapist said the model didn't support entities. This is the final missing piece of the jigsaw and has restored my faith in IFS.

    Another great conversation John. I'm reading Bob's book at the moment, such a great man and an inspiring story of healing and recovery. Thanks John for spreading this amazing message!

    R. Falconer's work with SRT is extraordinary. Trying to self-heal from these issues. Hearing Bob talk about his own life - most appreciated. Thank you both for the interview. (Here from his talk with Jeff Mishlove.)
