About this listen

In this episode, hosts April and Andrea dive into how different generations approach mental health and emotional wellness — from Boomers to Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z. Together, they unpack the messages each generation was raised with and how those beliefs shaped coping, connection, and self-care.


April and Andrea discuss the impact of “tough it out” mentalities versus today’s emphasis on emotional awareness, what each generation got right, where harm was done, and how unspoken expectations still show up in relationships and healing. From silence and survival to vulnerability and regulation, this conversation explores how generational patterns affect mental health — and how empathy can bridge the gap.


The takeaway is simple: no matter your generation, we all need safety, understanding, and compassion — and it’s never too late to do things differently.
