Lena: Hey everyone, welcome back to another personalized podcast from BeFreed-I'm Lena, and I'm here with Eli, and we are genuinely excited to dive into something really important today.
Eli: Absolutely, Lena! And you know what? Today's conversation is going to be one of those deep dives that I think will resonate with so many of our listeners. We're exploring something that hits close to home for a lot of people-those complicated sibling relationships that seem to get more challenging as we get older, not easier.
Lena: Right, and specifically we're looking at how childhood competition and that whole "who was better" dynamic can really poison adult sibling relationships. It's fascinating how these patterns from when we were kids can follow us for decades.
