Dr. Richard Schwartz is a psychotherapist, bestselling author of the Book No Bad Parts, and the founder and developer of the Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy model. Dr. Schwartz began his career as a family therapist and an academic at the University of Illinois at Chicago and there he discovered that family therapy alone did not achieve full symptom relief and in asking patients why, he learned that they were plagued by what they called “parts.” These patients became his teachers as they described how their parts formed networks of inner relationships that resembled the families he had been working with. He also found that as they focused on and, thereby, separated from their parts, they would shift into a state characterized by qualities like curiosity, calm, confidence, and compassion. He called that inner essence the Self and was amazed to find it even in severely diagnosed and traumatized patients. From these explorations the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model was born in the early 1980s. IFS is now evidence-based and has become a widely used form of psychotherapy, particularly with trauma, and is quickly becoming the preferred modality to incorporate into Psychedelic Medicine research, therapy, and all stages of psychedelic sessions. It provides a non-pathologizing, optimistic, and
empowering perspective and a practical and effective set of techniques for working with individuals, couples, families, and more recently, corporations and classrooms.

Life can be hard at times and if you’re like me, you may tend to think that you can handle it all on your own. Maybe you’ve done such a good job of “managing for so long” having to do something different or talk to someone can feel uncomfortable. The idea of therapy, to me, felt like I had to admit that there was something wrong with me or that I’d be showing the world that I was broken or didn't have it all together… but when my health started to suffer, and I was anxious 24/7… I realized my body was trying to tell me something was wrong and I learned that there is no “good health” without mental health. Therapy was the answer for me, it helped me put down all of the heavy things that I was carrying that didn’t belong to me. While therapy can provide so much relief, finding a therapist can feel so daunting.

Christopher Robbins is an entrepreneur, an innovator, a yoga instructor, a father, the founder of Soul Degree, and beloved husband of podcast host, author, and motivational speaker Mel Robbins. Professionally, Chris worked in the corporate world and as an entrepreneur, across Europe then America, in dozens of roles and responsibilities for 25+ years and realized most of that time was spent trying to prove his worth, hide his truth, or trying to be something or someone that he wasn’t. After hitting rock bottom and looking for purpose while trying to navigate his healing journey, Chris created Soul Degree, a coaching and personal development program for men that offers monthly meditations and runs restorative wilderness retreats aimed at giving men the opportunity to step out of their everyday lives and experience adventure, freedom, and inner growth. Soul Degree allowed Chris the opportunity to rediscover a sequestered source of joy — in slowing down and circling up with people in pursuit of deeper meaning in remote natural settings.
