Join Dr. Diana Naranjo and writer Neely Tubati Alexander who brings her new character Sloane to therapy, from A Not So Perfect World. Sloane is a 28-year-old cisgendered female, who is adjusting to her happily ever after. Every so often, maladaptive patterns of coping rear their ugly heads from leftover childhood trauma and deep seated parental dynamics. We take a look at her "doomsday prepping" coping strategies, as well as her relationship with her mother who immigrated from India to give her daughter a better life. A life that Sloane often feels she isn't quite living up to. Listen as we talk about growing up, finding love, and learning to see our parents as human too.
