We explore how parentification—a dynamic where a child takes on parental responsibilities—can shape how we interact with colleagues, supervisors, and our entire work environment. This dynamic can influence how we form relationships, set boundaries, and manage responsibilities throughout our careers.  Dawn and I also discuss ways to cultivate awareness and take actionable steps to love those around us while establishing healthy boundaries. It’s all about finding balance and managing the intersection of emotional dynamics and professional success.
