In this honest and eye-opening episode, we dive into the pressure to “just stay positive” and why toxic positivity can actually be harmful, not healing. We unpack the difference between hope and denial—and explore how shutting down real emotions in favor of forced cheerfulness silences pain rather than soothing it.
You’ll hear a powerful conversation about emotional honesty, and why it’s okay to feel grateful and grief-stricken in the same breath. From rage to exhaustion, sadness to strength, we talk about giving yourself permission to feel it all—and how that is where true resilience begins.
Perfect for anyone who’s ever been told to “just think happy thoughts” and found themselves needing something more real.
