We all have patterns we wish we could change: the perfectionism, the people-pleasing, the urge to fix everything, or the reaction in a meeting we regret an hour later. Most of us try to push these patterns away or criticize ourselves for them. But what if they're actually trying to help us?
In this episode of The Mindset Game® podcast, Vered Kogan speaks with Sophia Mose, an executive coach, IFS certified practitioner, and co-designer of the IFS Foundations for Coaches program at the IFS Institute. Sophia explains how the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model helps us understand the different "parts" of ourselves, and why getting curious about them, instead of fighting them, is what allows real change to happen.
Sophia also guides listeners through a short visualization to prepare for a conversation with someone they find difficult, whether that's a colleague, a client, or a family member.
In this conversation, you'll learn:
Why the patterns we label as self-sabotage often have a positive intent
How curiosity, rather than self-criticism, helps old patterns soften
Why qualities like compassion, clarity, and confidence don't need to be developed, only uncovered
How the drama triangle shows up in our relationships, and how to step out of it
A simple practice to walk into challenging conversations feeling calmer and more open To learn more about Sophia's work with leaders, visit SophiaMose.com or connect with her on LinkedIn.
