Healing isn’t about staying positive. It’s about being honest.

In this episode, Naomi talks about toxic positivity and emotional bypassing: the pressure to forgivefast, smile through the pain, and move on before you're ready. She shares how she used to skip over her own grief, thinking that meant she was healing. But real healing started when she let herself feel everything.

If you’ve ever been told to “just be grateful” or “let it go” while your heart was still hurting, pleaselisten to this episode.

You’re allowed to feel it all. That’s what healing looks like.
