If you have been confused about the term toxic positivity, don't worry, we are breaking it all down in this episode. With all the mess that the last couple of years has brought - it only makes sense that we all want to feel better and look toward a brighter side. However. our attempts at alleviating discomfort through positivity can often lead to the invalidation and minimization of someone's authentic experience. You can be optimistic and positive AND hold the present truth all at the same time. . . listen to the episode to figure out how!
