In this episode of Happy, Healthy, Whole, and Rich, Tina Brinkley Potts delivers a sacred rebuke to one of the most common distortions in spiritual circles: toxic positivity.

Positivity itself is never toxic — but bypassing is. Denial is. Pretending everything is fine while pain festers underneath is not faith, it’s illusion.

Tina shares her own story of believing positivity alone could fix a misaligned marriage, and how that belief kept her bound. She calls out the way many spiritual seekers misinterpret teachers like Abraham Hicks, clarifying that “contrast” is not something to skip — it’s the very ground where transformation begins.

Through scripture, metaphysics, and practical reflection, this episode teaches: the only way TO is THROUGH. Pain, when faced, becomes passage. Contrast, when processed, becomes clarity. And walking through is what brings true alignment with Source.

This sacred rebuke stings — but it also frees.

Don’t just perform positivity — embody truth.
