Let’s Welcome Our People Pleaser Parts
How do you feel towards yours?
I’ve been deepening my relationship with mine—and only recently realized these parts are the ones who chose my therapy career 27 years ago! They meant so well… but when they overworked in sessions, I burned out within a decade and nearly left the field.
I’m thrilled to be a guest on Cora Rennie’s “Understanding People Pleasing” Summit, May 20–June 2!
We dive deep into: Welcoming People Pleasing Parts with Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Claim your FREE seat as my guest and get free access for 24H to 2–3 recordings/day for 14 days!
You’ll also hear from:
🌱 Dr. Aimie Apigian – The Biology of Trauma & People Pleasing
💔 Susan Anderson – How Abandonment Fuels Pleasing Patterns
🧠 Dr. Russell Kennedy – Healing Anxiety & Pleasing Behaviors
🌸 Kimberly Ann Johnson – Female Biology & the Social Nervous System
…and many more
Don’t miss this if you’re ready to understand the role of these Protective Parts and their good intentions on your behalf. It’s going to be a sweet time of connection and learning!

Oct 19-22 Restore Your SELF: Retreat for IFS Therapists & Practitioners
Tend to the parts who work so hard in session, the parts who want you to be a “good” therapist and help your clients heal.
Befriend what blocks Self energy and clarity in session so you and your clients can thrive.
Space is Limited. Invite a friend or colleague.
“When I invited Laura to teach an IFS and LifeForce Yoga 5-day program at Kripalu Retreat Center, I had no idea how her generous spirit would make such a difference to me and our participants.
Her open heart and authenticity drew our community together. Her advanced preparation and ability to connect and communicate with calm presence made her an outstanding teacher. She stayed fully present to the volunteer clients, as she demonstrated two clinical sessions that brought the group to tears. I loved teaching with Laura and look forward to our next opportunity to teach together!”
~Amy Weintraub, C-IAYT, MFA, Level 2 IFS, founder of LifeForce Yoga, author of Yoga for Depression, Yoga Skills for Therapists and the Yoga for Your Mood Deck.
