What's Normal Independence vs. Hyper-Independence?

ShrinkChicks - Un podcast de Jennifer Chaiken, LMFT and Emmalee Bierly, LMFT - Les lundis

Today on ShrinkChicks, Emmalee and Jen are covering the highly requested topic of hyper-independence! They start the discussion off by defining hyper-independence, also known as ultra-independence, and where it can originate from. They talk about the relationship between hyper-independence and parentification and birth order, the societal praise hyper-independence receives, and how hyper-independence can affect our romantic and platonic relationships. Emmalee and Jen distinguish between hyper-independence and typical independence and share some questions to ask yourself if you're having a hard time understanding the difference in your life. The episode wraps with a Dear Em & Jen that asks: is it wrong/bad that I don't want help from others? Tune in to gain insight, awareness, and action!
