211. The problem with 'toxic' positivity

Today on the podcast we are talking about toxic positivity and the problem with always being positive and putting a fluffy, warm, positive spin on things. Often our unrealistic optimism comes from a good place and our desire to be happy all the time but any person knows that isn't always possible. We break down:

  • The reason we gravitate towards toxic positivity
  • What toxic positivity looks like
  • The impact of wellness and self help content
  • The consequences for our mental health
  • The consequences for our emotional intelligence
  • Why people who accept negative emotions are ACTUALLY happier
  • How to practice emotional acceptance and healthy positivity

All of that and so much more, listen now!
