Join us for our dive into Inside Out 2, Pixar’s latest exploration of emotions, identity, and mental health. In this discussion, we analyze the film’s portrayal of anxiety, self-concept, and emotional growth as Riley navigates the challenges of adolescence. With insights from professional counselors, we break down how the movie captures the complexity of the inner world, the transition from childhood to adolescence, and the role of emotions like anxiety, envy, and embarrassment.
We’ll also touch on whether Inside Out 2 is suitable for kids, how it compares to the first film, and what valuable takeaways it offers for parents, therapists, and anyone interested in emotional well-being.
