The joke is, adulting is no joke. And it is, in fact, the case that there’s way more to adulting than the typical five markers of adulthood (finish education, get a job, leave home, marry, have kids). Christine talks to Julie Lythcott-Haims, author of the new book “Your Turn: How To Be An Adult,” about how to get beyond learning basic adulting skills to the power of wanting to be an adult and having to adult. Christine and Julie talk about vulnerability, perfectionism, people pleasing, and more.
