Self Led Love with Bahia Miller
Using the transformative lens of Internal Family Systems (IFS), Self Led Love is an exploration of how our inner parts shape the way we love, communicate, and grow in partnership. Each episode invites listeners to deepen self-awareness, take radical responsibility, and cultivate more authentic, connected relationships.
Self Led Love with Bahia Miller
How to Have Difficult Conversations — A Self-Led Structure
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
A Three-Part Framework for Walking Through the Fire with Courage, Clarity & Care
In this solo episode, Bahia Miller offers a practical, parts-informed road map for having the difficult conversations that matter — not to win, not to blame, but to be truly known and to truly know another.
Because here's the truth: avoiding the conversation has a cost too. And more often than not, it's a bigger one.
You'll learn:
- Why difficult conversations are actually an act of self-love, not just relational courage
- The critical first step: getting clear on what you actually need to say (and which parts are in the way)
- How to have a "conversation about the conversation" to ease reactivity before you even begin
- Brené Brown's powerful reframe of putting the issue across the table — so you're on the same team
- How to use a parts map as a communication tool with your partner
- Subtle communication shifts that will change the trajectory of the conversation.
