Meet Nate: Confronting Parentification and People-Pleasing...
Growing up with an absent father and a parentifying mother amidst the backdrop of divorce, Nate was often the glue holding his fragmented family together. From a young age, the responsibilities thrust upon him shaped his early identity as the hero child, tasked with more than a child should bear. It wasn’t until a defining argument with his wife that Nate recognized the unsustainable nature of his people-pleasing tendencies, which were deeply rooted in his childhood experiences.
Join us on this week's Shitshow Saturday to hear Nate's compelling journey from validation-seeking in his professional life to advocating for mental health in his leadership roles. Discover how understanding his role as an adult child has led Nate to healthier boundaries and a more fulfilling life.
