Summary

This is ShrinkChicks 100th episode!! Thank you to all of the listeners - both old and new - for helping the show get to this point! Today, Emmalee and Jen reflect on this exciting milestone and laugh about the things that have changed over the past two years. They then answer your questions in a fan favorite, Q&A style episode. These questions include: how to mentally prepare before having kids, what to do when your partner doesn't stand up for you with their family, making friends as an adult, how to communicate with someone who thinks they're never wrong, the fear of not being lovable romantically, and how to stop comparing. Dear Em & Jen answers a listener's question about their concern that they might be a narcissist. Tune in to gain insight, awareness, and action!
