ShrinkChicks

This week on ShrinkChicks, Emmalee and Jen dive into part two of people in our lives who aren't "doing the work." They continue to answer listener questions such as how to enjoy these people, when is it "too much," and how to respond to manipulation. They discuss ultimatums and setting the hard boundary, how it can be so hard to receive what we've asked for, grieving the fact that some people in our lives may not change, how different relationships can fulfill us in different ways, and so much more. We also get an update on the new Philadelphia office, some of the decor Emmalee bought and why she thought Jen was mad at her for doing so. Tune in to gain insight, awareness, and action!

Today's episode of ShrinkChicks is dedicated to advice for our younger selves. Emmalee and Jen share the advice they would give to their younger selves and also the advice written in by their audience. They start the episode by reminiscing on the early days of The Therapy Group and the amount of anxiety they had while building the business. They talk through how they've grown since then and the advice they had trouble hearing at the time. Emmalee and Jen discuss why they think we can also give this advice to our present selves, their experiences being “the chill girl” in relationships, shifting away from the need for external validation, the regrets they have surrounding dieting, a potential new tagline for ShrinkChicks, and so much more!
