Toxic Positivity Won't Heal Your Trauma or Relationships

Toxic positivity and pseudospiritual self-help advice is more rampant than ever. You can hardly throw a stone without hitting a new "life coach" or influencer guru who promises to hold all the keys to your happiness. But all their knowledge rarely leads anywhere but confusion and resentment. Why? 

It's important that you learn how to spot this bad advice, these toxic coaches, and protect yourselves from them. They are teaching people not how to love themselves, but how to be insecure and self-loathing; how to settle for abuse and dimishment in their day-to-day relationships. Don't let them drag you under too.  

What We're Talking About: 

  • What is toxic positivity? 
  • How does it affect us? 
  • How can we spot toxic positivity and toxic coaches?

A Few More Resources: 

  • Dealing with Toxic Positivity
  • How to Filter Self-Help Advice
  • Signs of a Bad Coach
