What if your strongest emotional reactions weren’t random at all — but perfectly logical once you understood their origins?

In this episode of Antifragilient OS – NowShift Daily Transmissions, Dr. Abhimanyou Raathore (Clinical Psychologist & Functional Medicine Practitioner) reveals the Internal Family System — the three core parts that work together inside all of us:

• Managers – Proactive protectors, shaping our behavior to prevent emotional pain, often echoing authority figures from our past.
• Firefighters – Reactive defenders, stepping in when pain breaks through, using distraction or intense action to douse emotional flames.
• Exiles – The most vulnerable parts, carrying the shame, fear, loneliness, and powerlessness from our earliest wounds.

These parts aren’t your enemies — they’re your lifelong protectors, each with positive intentions. They don’t need you to obey them; they need you to see them, hear them, and appreciate their service.

By understanding how Managers, Firefighters, and Exiles interact, you’ll begin to see why you respond the way you do — and how to approach your emotions with compassion instead of judgment.

This episode is just the beginning. In upcoming transmissions, Dr. Raathore will explore each part in depth and share practical tools to work with them. Until then, reflect on your own inner team:

• Who’s been speaking the loudest?
• Who’s been waiting the longest to be heard?

🎧 Listen now, and start leading your team with clarity, curiosity, and care.
