Description

As if being a working parent were not enough pressure-- the current unrelenting achievement culture is putting unmanageable stress on kids and adults and feeding a vicious cycle where enough is never enough. Jennie Wallace is a journalist who focuses on parenting and has a new book coming out, Never Enough: When Achievement Culture Becomes Toxic and What We Can Do About It, she tackles this tricky issue by providing a framework to see how we got here, how unhealthy it is and what we can do to fight back. You can pre-order Jennie's book here: https://www.jenniferbwallace.com/about-never-enoughProduction by Peoples Media Hosted on Acast.
