Liz talks to award-winning journalist and author, Jennifer Wallace, about her new book Never Enough: When Achievement Culture Becomes Toxic—and What We Can Do About It, which takes a look at the toxic achievement culture that is overtaking parents and children's lives. Instead of blaming parents, Jennifer takes a look at the outside social and economic pressures that have brought us here and what we can do as parents to push back.
