My Two Favorite Things: Pickleball and IFS
Imagine a community where laughter, movement, and self-discovery come together.
On the pickleball court, we find energy, joy, and connection. In Internal Family Systems (IFS), we discover the power of listening inward, embracing our parts, and cultivating compassion. What if these two passions could unite-creating a space where play and healing go hand in hand?
Parts & Paddles is more than a pickleball group and more than an IFS circle—it's a unique community for those who love both.
Picture stepping onto the court not only to sharpen your game, but also to connect with others who value inner growth, self-awareness, and authentic relationships. Here, we celebrate the fun of rallying a ball back and forth, while also rallying around one another's healing journeys.
Whether you're new to pickleball, new to IFS, or seasoned in both, this community is about showing up just as you are. Together, we'll explore what it means to play with our parts, to laugh with our protectors, and to cheer for each other's inner teams— all while enjoying the thrill of the game. This is your invitation to join a movement where paddles meet presence, and where every point scored is also a step toward wholeness.

Thank you, Tammy Sollenberger, for connecting with me, holding space for my story, and asking the powerful question: “If you could do anything other than what you are currently doing, what would it be?”

I would love to find my people who share my dual passion for pickleball and Internal Family Systems.
