Holiday gatherings can be joyful and exciting, but they can also bring stress, pressure, and tricky family dynamics.

Wicked gives us magic, music, and some surprisingly real relationship lessons. In today’s #WickedForGood video, Dr. Jeter shares some takeaways we can learn from the characters and how their choices remind us to show empathy, communicate clearly, and stay true to who we are in our own relationships.

Wicked may be a fantasy world, but its relationship lessons are very real for college students navigating friendships, dating, boundaries, and communication. Ahead of the #WickedForGood release, Dr. Nari Jeter breaks down what we can learn from the characters.

As our #WickedForGood release celebration continues, Dr. Nari Jeter dives into how each character expresses their needs, handles conflict, and shows (or struggles with) emotional openness.

In today’s video, Dr. Nari Jeter explains where characters misunderstand each other, avoid honesty, or let jealousy and fear drive their choices. These patterns show up in romantic relationships, and they're important to recognize. Stay tuned all week for more Wicked insights. #Wicked #WickedForGood

It’s "Wicked for Good" release week! Throughout the week, Anne's College will be highlighting relationship dynamics in Wicked with Dr. Nari Jeter from our Department of Human Development and Family Science. Stay tuned for more Wicked-inspired relationship insights! 💚✨ #Wicked #WickedForGood
