Is being born first a blessing or a curse? In this episode, we explore what it’s like to be and raise an eldest child. We learn about Austrian psychiatrist Alfred Adler’s 1964 Birth Order Theory and the many studies it inspired, psychologist and author of The Birth Order Book Kevin Lehman’s advice for raising firstborns, and Gabor Maté’s take on siblings’ respective experiences of their parents.
