In this transformational podcast, Joanna inspires us to embrace Self-leadership, based on the theory of Internal Family Systems (IFS), in schools and other settings. Joanna gives us lots of practical ideas and takes us through a PAUSE experience which will fascinate you.

After working with leadership in schools and organizations for over 15 years, Joanna recognized that many programs and initiatives teaching emotional regulation and interpersonal skills weren’t addressing the root issues where people were getting stuck and what they needed to step out of fear-based self-protection and step into optimal functioning, Self-leadership. In 2011, Joanna learned about Internal Family Systems (IFS) and recognized a profound psychological model and a transformative paradigm to explain and guide productive, collaborative relationships.

In 2017, Joanna founded Self-Leadership Collaborative, which Neil became a contributor as a global partner. with a vision to lead a global movement to adapt and apply the essential wisdom of IFS for everyday life for people of all ages, contexts and cultures. https://www.selfleadershipcollaborative.com/about

Joanna has just publishes a book called, The Self-led Educator, an IFS-Inspired Guide to Create Calm, Compassionate, and Confident Learning Communities

Richard Dunne is inspiring! He is someone who is making a huge contribution in the world of education. He founded The Harmony Project after developing the Harmony approach to learning in his previous role as Headteacher.

This approach brings together subject-specific skills and knowledge around projects or enquiries of learning that take learning beyond the classroom and apply it to the real world. Each enquiry references a principle of Harmony in Nature – Interdependence, Cycles, Diversity, Adaptation, Health and Oneness. When learners understand these principles of Harmony, they learn what they need to do to live sustainably, too. It is our lack of understanding of these principles that has led us to a place where the future well-being of our planet and its people is now at stake.

Richard now shares this approach across the education sector nationally and globally. He is doing amazing work in the Ukraine. He gives presentations, workshops and school support programmes. He has written a teachers’ guide to enable teachers and educators to implement Harmony principles and practices in their education settings. The guide is being promoted as a blueprint for Education for Sustainability with the English Department of Education. It has now been translated into nine languages.

Richard's work is supported by King Charles, as it is a huge contribution to teaching about sustainability.

This inspirational Noble Conversation could change your life, as it features Richard Schwartz the creator of IFS, which is used by psychotherapists worldwide. Dick developed Internal Family Systems (IFS) in response to clients’ descriptions of various parts within themselves. He focused on the relationships among these parts and noticed that there were systemic patterns to the way they were organized across clients. He also found that when the clients’ parts felt safe and were allowed to relax, the clients would experience spontaneously the qualities of confidence, openness, and compassion that Dick came to call the Self. He found that when in that state of Self, clients would know how to heal their parts.

A featured speaker for international professional organisations, Dick has published many books and over fifty articles about IFS.
