Dr. Jean Twenge on How the Generation You're Born Into Shapes Who You Are (Think Baby Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z)

Who knew that the generation you were born into -- obviously through no choice of your own -- could shape SO much of who you are? Today we're talking about a really interesting topic: The six currently living generations, spanning the Silents (the oldest of whom were born in 1925) to the Polars (who are being born even as you read this). Why does our generation have so much influence over us? And what are each of the generations like? This and so much more are covered in today's episode.
