She understands their frustration. Some clients have done everything “right”: graduate, get a job, meet a partner. Yet they are unfulfilled and unclear on what to do next. Byock calls these Quarterlifers \u003cstrong\u003e“Stability Types.”\u003c\/strong\u003e Others are uninterested in this prescribed path, but feel unmoored.
