#14 Toxic Positivity, Spiritual Bypassing & Calming the Inner Critic with Ace

Allow me to introduce my BESTIE Ace, host of the Chronic x Chaotic podcast!

Ace (they/them) is an Autistic baddie, ADHDer, disabled human and a human living with several chronic conditions including mental illness. They’re also an aspiring psychologist and have loads of incredible insight from their own lived experience as well as their own research.

• What is toxic positivity? How to spot it and avoid falling into its trap
• The difference between sympathy and empathy
• Why people with a uterus and/or menstrual cycle shouldn’t be expected to show up the same way and with the same energy/capacity everyday
• Why people living with mental illness and disability can’t be expected to be positive all the time and how no emotion is “bad” or “negative”
• What is spiritual bypassing?
• How your mood and emotions are separate from you
• Projecting spiritual beliefs or bypassing tendencies onto others
• How gratitude practices aren’t always helpful for those living with disability and mental illness
• Calming the inner critic and forgiving yourself when you can’t show up how you want to or how you’ve been conditioned to
• The pros and cons to strict self-discipline
