Description
“This chapter of my life was not a midlife crisis. For me, midlife is an unraveling. And, what I’ve learned over the last couple of years is that unraveling is about fulfilling a longing for more self-acceptance and more self-love.” In this solo episode, Fiona Walsh opens up about her transformative journey into Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, a practice that helped her reconnect with herself and release limiting beliefs rooted in perfectionism and people-pleasing. It all began with a retreat in Tulum that sparked a process of unraveling, leading to deeper self-compassion, clarity, and alignment with her true self.
