I'm Noticing

Spencer Thompson & AmyJoy Sedberry

I'm Noticing is a relational experiment in self-awareness, connected communication and flow. We utilize authentic relating principles to create a shared space for self-discovery, authenticity and communication. We utilize Internal Family Systems and Nonviolent Communication (IFS & NVC) as models through which we perceive our systems and emphasize a feelings- and needs-based consciousness. We expect to witness an evolution of our interactions over time which will highlight new awarenesses, connected language and growth.

    Growing awareness of Self-like parts

    In this 11th instalment of I'm Noticing, we continue to notice more clearly how our systems respond to the ongoing experiment of communicating within this container, and a number of assumptions emerge that point us toward our Self-like parts. The container (or, our set of intentions) necessarily changes as we go further into this experiment, because systems always shift to find balance, it becomes an essential component of the container to shift to keep us off-balance in a way that serves us to have deeper noticings. I'm Noticing is an immersive, experiential podcast. We don't discuss IFS, NVC, or authentic communication. We experience it and invite the audience to have your own experience in tandem with us as you listen, however that shows up for you. The overarching intention of this process is to consistently bring more connecting language to our descriptions of our systems and communicate in a way that facilitates fluidity with our noticings. This is also an experiment in editing and producing a podcast! In keeping with the intentions of the container, I have specifically challenged my own perfectionism by just putting the episode out without spending lots of time tinkering with minor details, learning the whole suite of editing tricks, worrying about titles and descriptions, etc. I hope you'll be forgiving along this journey as I learn to do a better job producing!

    We love S.M.A.R.T. Goals

    In this tenth instalment of I'm Noticing, certain shifts are becoming more apparent as we notice our systems adapting to the process of how we are relating, and some of the ways that our parts are expressing unmet needs, or strategies we are noticing to meet these needs. P.S. if you're not familiar with SMART Goals: Specific - clear about what you intend to do (e.g. spend time journaling) Measurable - clear about what would constitute achievement (e.g. for 30 minutes, 3x weekly) Achievable - something that is reasonably within your capacity to achieve Relevant - relevance to the underlying issue you are seeking to address (e.g. lacking consistency, clarity) Timely - something that will be a priority (e.g. will be completed this week) Put it together, "I intend to journal for 30 minutes, three times this week, to address the concerns of a part of me that feels overwhelmed by insights/connections, and would like for me to help create some calm and clarity for it." The overarching intention of this process is to consistently bring more connecting language to our descriptions of our systems and communicate in a way that facilitates fluidity with our noticings. This is also an experiment in editing and producing a podcast!
