65: The Authentic Mindset: Why Forced Positivity Isn’t the Answer
Manage episode 477479096 series 3546213
Have you ever felt like being positive just isn’t enough?
Maybe someone told you to “just stay positive” at a time when life felt anything but okay.
In this episode of Wellbeing Interrupted, I’m opening up about the pressure to perform positivity—especially when living with a chronic illness—and why authenticity is far more healing than forcing a smile.
