174. How to Find a Balance Between Toxic Positivity and Optimism with Whitney Goodman of @sitwithwhit

Today we are so excited to have a conversation with Whiteny Goodman, the radically honest psychotherapist behind the very popular Instagram account @sitwithwhit. You may have seen her information and content in dozens of publications including the New York Times and New York Magazine.

We love this interview because it takes the toxically positive environment that many of us are living in, and it gives it a little bit of a shift. We don’t want to be walking around in complete negativity but there definitely is a balance and Whitney walks us through ways we can find that balance while helping ourselves and our relationships in the process.

Whitney covers everything from why she got started with toxic positivity to how we can show up for a friend who is going through something we might not fully understand. She also helps us identify the connection between people pleasing and toxic positivity.

If you haven’t already, we would love for you to leave us a review. Reviews are so important to podcasts and help us get our message across to new ears!
