Hello joyful souls! Today, I speak with my dear friend and mentor Lisa Carpenter. She’s a master coach and emotional resiliency expert with a no-bullshit approach to helping you take care of things in your life. And I know that about her personally because two years ago, she called me out on my bull and helped me make a huge change. In this episode, we discuss positivity culture, processing your emotions, and doing so in healthy ways.

2:28 - The cultural influence of toxic positivity

7:40 - What your emotions are really drying you to do

9:25 - The tendency to not allow people, especially women, to feel their emotions

13:42 - How people generally tend to deal with their emotions

18:21 - The difference between living in your past emotions versus excavating the past

21:17 - Misconceptions people have about the goal of attaining happiness

24:50 - Tools that help Lisa process her emotions
