Toxic Positivity

Toxic positivity is one thing a lot of us are guilty of. You know that thing you do when someone is sad and instead of consoling them, you tell them how they are not meant to be sad? That, my dear, is toxic positivity. In this episode, I’m sharing the mic with Seun (@darhkeangel) and we are discussing what you need to know about toxic positivity, especially as it relates to us as Christians. Grab your books as there’s a lot of wisdom being shared. Also get ready to burst into stitches of laughter. This episode is a gift from us. You are welcome ❤️

#EndSARS

Today marks the 1 week anniversary of the death of peaceful protesters in Lekki, Lagos Nigeria. While there’s been a lot of controversy about their death, it’s important to know that they died fighting for change in the Nigerian police systems. We will not stop talking about them. We will keep Pushing. Praying. Professing. Protesting. They are our heroes and their labors will not be in vain! #EndSARS

Sometimes, you go through a season where your life has more “no” than “yes”. In this episode, Fehintoluwa shares about lessons she has learnt in that phase.
