In today's episode we discuss the term Toxic Positivity. This concept has popped up all over the place on social media these days but many don't even know what it means, or when they are being faced with it or if they are a perpetuator of it. We take a look at how it shows up in our everyday life and a real life example from this week is discussed when David's car window got stuck in the down position and Jared showed support. We also offer tips on how to combat toxic positivity taken from some work done by Shannon Bruin, a Colorado based therapist.
