In this episode of Wicked Psychotherapists, we dive into Adam Sandler’s Grown Ups and dig into the psychology behind nostalgia, childhood friendships, and the lifelong patterns we carry into adulthood. 

From the Gen X childhoods we remember to the pressures of parenting in a digital age, we explore how early bonds shape us—and how even a silly waterpark scene can unpack themes of identity, growth, vulnerability, and healing generational wounds.

Plus: reflections on middle school trauma, how we perform success in adulthood, and the art of repairing friendships (even if it’s been 30 years).

This one’s heartfelt, insightful, and full of laughs—classic Wicked style.
