Ever caught yourself doing something impulsive — eating that extra slice of cake, binge-watching for hours, buying something you didn’t need — and wondered, “Why did I just do that?”
In this episode of Antifragilient OS – NowShift Daily Transmissions, Dr. Abhimanyou Raathore (Clinical Psychologist & Functional Medicine Practitioner) continues the journey through your Internal Family System, focusing on the “firefighters” — the parts of you that leap into action when emotions get overwhelming.
Unlike the future-focused managers, firefighters have one mission:
Immediate relief. At any cost.
They’ll soothe, distract, or numb you — sometimes with harmless comforts, sometimes with risky behaviors. But these reactive protectors aren’t villains. When unburdened from fear, they bring spontaneity, adventure, and balance to your life.
Through vivid examples, candid personal stories, and reflective exercises, you’ll:
- Spot your own firefighter patterns
- Understand their protective intentions
- Learn how to redirect their energy into healthier, life-enhancing actions
Dr. Raathore even shares his own firefighter journey — from emotional eating in the past to the mindful self-soothing strategies he uses today.
🎧 Listen now to transform your relationship with your most reactive parts — and be ready for tomorrow’s episode, where we explore the exiles that both managers and firefighters work so hard to protect.
