Toxic Positivity – When Light Becomes a Lie
RISEUP Voices From the Frontlines
What if your healing journey started off strong—but somewhere along the way,
“good vibes only” became the rule and your real emotions got shoved to the
side?
In this episode, Krista Fee dives into the raw truth about toxic
positivity, spiritual bypassing, and the performance
pressure that sneaks in when healing becomes a highlight reel.
We unpack what happens neurobiologically when you
pretend to be okay, how positivity can be used as emotional avoidance, and how
to recognize when your light has become a lie.
This isn’t a fluff-filled affirmation party. It’s a wake-up call for anyone
who’s ever felt like being honest made them less “healed.”
We talk about: The Trauma science behind “faking fine”
Why toxic positivity creates dissonance in your nervous system
Real-life stories of people stuck in the glitter and grace phase
4 powerful questions to check your emotional honesty
What healing actually looks and sounds like (hint: it’s messy AND sacred)
This one’s deep. Real. And necessary.
