    Psychosocial Development: Why Do We Feel Behind in Life?

    Ever felt like you're falling behind in life? Like you’re supposed to have it all figured out by now, but somehow, you missed the memo? Yeah, same. In this episode of Tell Me How You Really Feel, Ashley and Steph dive into Psychosocial Development—aka, how our personal needs collide with society’s expectations. We break down Erik Erikson’s eight stages of development, exploring why we feel pressure to "keep up" and why not following the so-called life timeline can make us feel like failures (spoiler: you’re not). Join us for a deep, insightful, and slightly irreverent conversation about identity, societal expectations, and why it’s okay to be exactly where you are.
