The book is called 'It Doesn't Have to Be Awkward', and it's about consent, healthy relationships, and other hard-to-talk-about stuff. I think what makes our book special is that we have a chapter on navigating substances and another chapter called 'Something Happened to Me'.
Growing up with a hypercritical mother and battling disordered eating can leave deep scars. In this episode of 'Adult Child', Andrea sits down with Paulina Pinsky, daughter of Dr. Drew, to talk about her personal journey through these challenges. Paulina opens up about her struggles with eating disorders and the pressure of having a celebrity parent. She dives into the impact of her mother's critical nature and how it influenced her mental health.
But it's not all about the past; Paulina shares how she has worked to heal her relationship with her mother, emphasizing the importance of therapy and setting boundaries. Paulina also discusses her new book, 'It Doesn't Have to Be Awkward', co-written with her father. The book covers tough topics like relationships and consent, aiming to make these conversations less daunting. One key takeaway from their chat is the concept of consent as an ongoing dialogue, not just a one-time agreement.
This episode isn't just about sharing struggles; it's about finding ways to heal and move forward. Whether you're dealing with similar issues or supporting someone who is, you'll find valuable insights and practical advice here. Tune in for a raw, honest conversation that sheds light on the complexities of family dynamics and personal growth.
