My Substack is exactly what you talk about here—a public learning journal of my own IFS work.

As someone who is already doing exactly what you recommend here, I HIGHLY endorse this advice!!

My clients get so, so much benefit out of what I write. Because I’m covering the same territory they are! I may be ahead of them in terms of techniques, but I’m not in terms of the issues. So I show them in a very granular way exactly how to use IFS to work with their parts.

If you love helping people with what you know, then nothing is a better way to transmit your knowing from you to them than doing exactly what George is saying here!

You knocked this out of the park, George!

great message George. In 2019 and now ;)

I often call those ‘public’ Learning journals - seems to take the pressure off if we call it ‘learning’ 🙌

Thanks David! Great point re: public learning.

So many great nuggets here! I began teaching Reiki although I’m still on my Reiki journey - my students start out knowing nothing, and I’m able to start them on their journey. You only need to be a few steps ahead!

Exactly! You are closer to them now / can empathize with them more NOW than in the future as an advanced expert.

“I’m not quite ready yet to put my work out there…” I found myself doing this today!

Lovely post George, and something I needed to read today!
