S1 E32 - Working through having haters on Social Media | Building a tolerance for the trolls

[Audio Dairy Recorded 4.22.25]

In this mentorship breakthrough episode of Glitter Mouth, I'm processing the aftermath of archiving my viral Starbucks post due to overwhelming hate, developing a "hater circle chart" system to build resilience muscles after meditation guidance, then experiencing what feels like divine intervention when swim lesson cancellations lead to an impromptu therapy session with one of the most incredible business women in the world who coaches me through thick skin development and reframes online hate as strength training rather than personal attacks.

Perfect for creators recovering from viral backlash trauma, anyone learning to accept help and mentorship, and listeners developing systematic approaches to handling criticism and building emotional resilience.

In this episode, I talk about:

• Post-hate hangover processing: Hoarse voice from crying, acknowledging combination of exhaustion, new venture stress, and "never received that much hate in my life"

• Comment curation boundary setting: Deleting brutal comments because "this is my space and I can curate it how I want to - I'm not going to let haters come into my house and poop on me"

• Hater meditation breakthrough: Listening to guided meditation about creating protective bubble, developing plan to make "hater circle chart" for resilience muscle building

• Celebrity Client divine intervention: Unplanned therapy session over mint tea - "like a messenger from God" coaching through thick skin development and online hate management

• Swimming metaphor wisdom: Client comparing hate resilience to catching water while learning to swim - "your lungs aren't in shape, you need to get stronger"

• Accepting help breakthrough: Overcoming "I don't want to be a burden" instinct to accept tea invitation and open up about struggles.

• Self-love versus romantic love distinction: Recognizing pattern of deserving romantic love easily but struggling with "accepting love for who I am"

• Parenting grounding force: Kids immediately pulling focus from "stewing in own crazy" back to present moment connection and love.
