Too many adults are living lives where they feel like passive participants rather than the creators of their destiny. In this eye-opening discussion with Julie Lythcott-Haims about her new book, Your Turn: How to Be an Adult, we discuss the challenges many individuals face as they attempt to step into their adult life, the actions that caused a generational shift in how we view adulting, and what is possible when we step into the adult life we were meant to lead.
In this episode you’ll learn:
- How the fundamental capacities of agency and resilience are underdeveloped in young adults who were over-parented as children
- How fear and learned helplessness can result as an adult for those who aren’t given the opportunity to grow independently
- The questions we need to ask ourselves when trying to quiet the voice of what others think we should do and begin acting on what we want our path to be
