48. Drew #50: Even Pillars Feel the Weight

48. Drew #50: Even Pillars Feel the Weight

This week, Drew is realizing that sooner than later, his parents will no longer be financially supporting him. Not only is he nervous about being able to pay for everything, but he's also worried that once his parents no longer have an obligation to support him, they won't choose to be as connected to him. This leads Drew and Doug to have a discussion regarding being necessary and choosing love and connection rather than feeling obligated. They talk about why Drew kicks into caretaker mode when he wants to feel attachment, and helps Drew see that he's been a pillar standing alone, trying to hold up everything for everyone.
