Episode Ep. 318/ Dr. Greg Chassen Toxic Achievement Culture
Dr. Greg Chassen is an expert on perfectionism and OCD at the University of Chicago.In this episode, Dr. Chasson discusses the inherent pressure families feel to help their children succeed. The pressure begins as early as infancy, when mothers feel compelled to train their babies in utero, and continues through college, where many mothers and fathers demand their teens attempt to get into an Ivy League school. The CDC says the level of stress on families is in part due to this toxic achievement culture. Dr. Chassen offers strategies for breaking the stress cycle and reclaiming our families' lives and happiness.
