In this episode of Going Inside, I sit down with Sara Avant Stover, a women’s leadership coach and author who blends Internal Family Systems (IFS) with entrepreneurship. We dive deep into how IFS can help entrepreneurs find balance between work and life, explore the motivations behind our drive to be productive, and discuss how tapping into our inner resources can enhance our work and overall well-being.

Key Takeaways:

1. IFS as a Tool for Slowing Down:
   IFS helps us tap into our inner resources, slowing down workaholic tendencies and fostering curiosity about the parts of us driving over productivity.
2. Balancing Business with Self-Care:
   Sara shares her experience of taking a month-long sabbatical each year to recharge, explaining how stepping away from work brings fresh clarity and helps create a more sustainable, simplified approach to business.
3. Listening to Our Higher Self:
   IFS encourages us to hold "inner family meetings," where we bring our parts to the table and tap into our innate confidence and clarity as leaders, finding new ways to approach entrepreneurship.
