Can positivity become harmful? In this episode, I reflect on the concept of toxic positivity—when optimism becomes a mask that hides genuine emotions—and the importance of embracing the full spectrum of our feelings.
Join me as I dive into how true emotional honesty can lead to deeper connection and healing. If you've ever felt pressure to "just stay positive," this episode will offer a more compassionate approach.
