ABOUT THIS EPISODE: 

Ep 9: We discuss how to have a positive mindset in the midst of extreme trauma and distress, as well as where is the line when a positive attitude turns into toxic positivity.

For those facing a cancer diagnosis, treatment, and or recovery, a positive mindset can be incredibly helpful, because no matter how bad things get you need to find a way to be in the emotion and trauma, yet then find a way to move through it and then past it as best possible. But how are you supposed to do that? what exactly is a positive mindset and how do you get one? And when does a helpful, positive mindset turn into toxic positivity? Welcome to episode 9 of the recovery room podcast because this is what we are discussing. Back by popular demand we are bringing back to the show mindset specialist and cancer survivor Kimberly Macon. We discuss, what positive mindset is, where and how it is helpful and also where the line is when positivity can become toxic. Kimberly will give us the tips and tools of mindset to not eliminate hardship, but to better cope with it when it happens.
