You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah: Why Middle School Still Haunts Us

Send us a Text Message we would love to hear what you thought of the show.This week, Erin and Tanya discuss Netflix's You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah and find themselves unexpectedly transported back to the awkward, confusing, and sometimes painful years of crushes, friendship drama, embarrassing moments, and trying desperately to fit in.From Stacy's obsession with the "cool" soccer player to friendship betrayals, social status, and learning how to take accountability for your actions, the movie does a surprisingly good job capturing what it feels like to be 13. The conversation also explores people-pleasing, repairing friendships after trust is broken, social media's impact on today's kids, and why so many adults still carry middle school wounds decades later. Along the way, Erin and Tanya share stories from their own adolescent years, debate Bat Mitzvah themes, and wonder why every town seemed to have that one older guy hanging around teenage parties.Whether you loved middle school, hated it, or blocked most of it from your memory, this episode is a funny and thoughtful look at growing up, making mistakes, and learning that being mature sometimes means admitting when you're wrong.Disclaimer: This podcast is for educational and entertainment purposes only and is not a substitute for therapy, mental health treatment, or professional advice.Connect with us!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wickedpsychotherapists/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Wickedpodcasts/Linktre.ee :  https://linktr.ee/thewickedpsychotherapistsWebsite :  https://www.wickedpsychotherapists.comYoutube : https://www.youtube.com/@Wickedpsychotherapists
