Listen Later

When something unfortunate, unwanted, or downright painful happens in your author career, it's helpful to shift the way you think about the situation. Except! You don't want to slather toxic positivity all over everything.

So, how do you thread the needle of reframing the painful thing in an empowering way without slipping into unhelpful toxic positivity? This episode will teach you how to tell the difference.
