Confessions: Adult peer pressure, how do we cope?

Loading player...
Stacey Norman and J Sbu received a confession from Sandra about peer pressure that she just can't seem to shake.

Sandra said: “The pressure I feel to look rich to fit in with my friends is crippling. I’m working just as hard as them but I’m not seeing near the same results.”

After feeling the pain in her words, they opened the hotlines for you to weigh in.

We might just have to start a Ted Talk with the people of KZN with the amount of sound of advice Sandra received.
