Summary

This week's episode of ShrinkChicks is all about life stage transitions and the anxiety that can come along with them. Emmalee and Jen start the episode off with another new listener intro idea and share the highs and lows of their weeks. They then dive into listener questions about various life transitions like the difference between a period of transition vs. making the "wrong” choice, decision paralysis with change, coping when friends' lives are changing but yours isn't, being "ahead" or "behind" others, becoming an empty nester, social anxiety when making friends in a new place, preparing for parenthood and so much more. The episode ends with a Dear Em & Jen about a listener and her partner's life choices no longer aligning. Tune in to gain insight, awareness, and action!
