Holding Our Pain: The Beautiful Truth That Toxic Positivity Ignores

Sep 26, 2023
17 mins

Episode Description

Toxic positivity is bullshit. When we experience something painful in your life, the last thing we need is to be told that it’s all for the best. Because honestly, it kinda seems like the “best” outcome wouldn’t have involved that much pain.

This week, I’m talking about:

  1. Why toxic positivity sucks.
  2. Reasons why your trauma doesn’t make you a better person.  
  3. Why rushing ourselves through healing doesn’t actually work.
  4. How we can integrate our pain, grief, and trauma into our lives without being crushed by it.
  5. How my own grief impacts my life and how I’m creating more space for it.
