In this episode, I sit down with Devora Shabtai, a seasoned therapist with extensive experience working with young adults facing the challenge of "failure to launch." Together, we explore what this phenomenon truly means, where it stems from, and how it impacts individuals and their families. Devora shares her wisdom on identifying the root causes of this struggle and practical strategies to support loved ones navigating this complex journey. Most importantly, we discuss how to approach this issue with empathy and hope, providing a roadmap for growth, healing, and moving forward Devora Shabtai, LCSW, MSc currently serves as the Vice President of Clinical Programming at Onward Living, an addiction rehabilitation program for Jewish men in Boca Raton, Florida.
