About this listen

Gen Z's not doing so hot.  At least, that's what it looks like from Margo Margan's perspective, and that's why she's drawn to the theory of positive disintegration, at least as long as it doesn't turn into yet another celebration of eggshell walking and (negative) maladjustment. 

In this episode, Margo Margan talks about why she founded a group at Third Factor all about "Maladjustment to Maladjustment," how her experience with a mental health misdiagnosis at an early age has influenced her trajectory, and a surprising place she's found belonging.
