Hey Besties, I've got a bonus for you in the feed today to tell you about we can do hard things, a show we think you're going to love.

We all do hard things every day, things like loving and losing, caring for children and parents, forging and

ending friendships, battling addiction, illness, and loneliness, but often struggle

in silence. That's where Glen and Doyle and her wife Abby Wombach and her sister Amanda

Doyle come in. Twice a week the three with help from guests like Jane Fonda, Oprah Winfrey,

and former First Lady Michelle Obama strive to find light in darkness.

They laugh, they cry, and help each other carry the hard in hopes of living a bit braver and less alone.

I'm excited to bring you a listen into an episode with author and clinical

psychologist Lindsay C Gibson, Lindsay joins Glenn and Abby and Amanda to talk about

the effects of being raised by emotionally immature parents mapping out two routes

children often take, becoming internalizers or externalizers,

and how that plays out in adult relationships and professional lives.

Take a listen. When you are raised by an emotionally immature parent, regardless of whether it's their fault that they were that we can release that

like the faulting of at all. What as a child if you are raised by a parent who is egocentric who has all of these defenses who has

effective realism who has poor empathy what happens to you as a child you talk about

two routes we can take as an internalizer or an externalizer, right?

So talk to us about that experience as a child and then how you might know that you are an adult child of a emotionally immature person. What might show up in your life?

As you can imagine, little children need their parents to be able to see them, help them understand what feelings are, help them understand themselves.

I mean, these are all things that, you know,

little children need.

And they don't just get it from their parents.

I mean, they get it from, you know, other adults.
