The Edge of Jenny's Practice | Curious Now #27

The Center for Medical Simulation

Show Notes

Working from a challenge by Eve Purdy, this week Jenny is focusing on the edge of her expertise and the work she’s currently doing for herself, which is self-leadership using internal family systems.

What this does is cast on floodlights onto your reactions, allowing you to understand the parts of yourself that are in conflict and that are putting you into a reactive mode. So who is the part of Jenny that pops out and turns her prickly and drops the Basic Assumption during meetings and other conflicts?

Workout of the week: Identify and name a part of yourself that keeps popping up regularly.
