--Nedra Glover Tawwab, author of Set Boundaries, Find Peace
A powerful guide to owning our emotionsâeven the difficult onesâfrom the popular therapist behind @sitwithwhit.
Every day, weâre bombarded with pressure to be positive. From âgood vibes onlyâ and âlife is goodâ memes, to endless advice, to âlook on the bright side,â weâre constantly told that the key to happiness is silencing negativity wherever it crops up, in ourselves and in others. Even when faced with illness, loss, breakups, and other challenges, thereâs little space for talking about our real feelingsâand processing them so that we can feel better and move forward.
But if all this positivity is the answer, why are so many of us anxious, depressed, and burned out?
In this refreshingly honest guide, sought-after therapist Whitney Goodman shares the latest research along with everyday examples and client stories that reveal how damaging toxic positivity is to ourselves and our relationships, and presents simple ways to experience and work through difficult emotions. The result is more authenticity, connection, and growthâand ultimately, a path to showing up as you truly are.
