Press Send with Chinae Alexander

Happy 2022, friends! So happy you're here. On the very first episode of the new year, I'm sitting down with political psychologist, psychotherapist, and author of Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents, Dr. Lindsay Gibson. We're talking all about what it's like growing up with emotionally immature parents, emotional loneliness, mental curiosity versus emotional curiosity, and the idea you can't do emotional work for other people. Part two of our conversation will be out next week, so stay tuned!
