If you’ve ever wondered how you can be so strong in your career and yet still feel overwhelmed inside, you’ll want to listen to this one.

Lisa speaks with Nancy Hyland, MA, LMFT and longtime friend, about the groundbreaking, experiential based therapy Internal Family Systems (IFS). IFS is like our brain’s group chat; that internal mix of competing inner voices, each with its own advice and agenda, that all human beings experience. If you’re a high achieving woman who experiences overwhelm, perfectionism, self-criticism or feel like an imposter when you’re recognized and rewarded, this episode is for you!

Nancy breaks down IFS in a simple, yet relatable way, explaining how those parts (the inner critic, the people pleaser, the high achiever) are all just trying to help…even when it doesn’t feel that way. Nancy explains how identifying and understanding our internal voices can reduce stress, quiet self-doubt and encourage us to show up as centered, compassionate, confident leaders.

This episode is all about self-awareness, emotional clarity, and strengthening the inner leadership skills that help women thrive at work and protect their well-being.

In this episode of GRACE, GRIT, GETTING IT DONE, host Lisa Gillette teaches a masterclass for every woman who has ever felt anxious about asking for what she deserves. No posturing. No apologizing. No strategies designed by men, because those don’t work for women. Lisa breaks down some of the step-by-step strategies she’s used to help hundreds of women successfully negotiate equal pay.

If you're a woman who is ready to successfully negotiate her next offer, this episode is for you. Learn:

• Overcome the #1 obstacle that can sabotage every negotiation. (And no, it’s not about building confidence.)
• A simple financial formula to quickly assess an offer, and how to successfully counter.
• A powerful mental reset to stay calm, focused, and persuasive when the stakes are high.

Listen to this episode. It may very well change your financial future.
