#120 Checking In with Inner Skeptics Parts Work Guided Practice
Working through dilemmas and challenges usually involves trade-offs, compromises, or imperfect third options. After all, if there was a lot of internal consensus, it wouldn't be a dilemma.
Sometimes, parts may feel bruised and disappointed, making you feel unsure about whether you made the right choice.
In this parts work practice, Jen helps you connect with your inner skeptics and naysayers where you can soothe their nerves and solicit their advice on how to move forward more confidently. Skeptics can be a well of insight for how to navigate tricky situations - in other words that can be great allies if you take the time to get to know them.
