#167 Did We Grow Up Too Fast? feat. HURRIED CHILD SYNDROME

Christina makes Lauren read a pop psychology article and we discuss whether “Hurried Child Syndrome” is actually a thing. Topics include responsibility, perfectionism, cyclical trauma, therapy approaches, and more. Plus we’ve got voicemails, a disastrous work story from Lauren, and an attempted coup by Christina’s cats. Enjoy!
