Summary
You might have heard of toxic positivity, but have you heard of toxic independence?
In this episode, we’re talking about how to move away from toxic independence and closer to an appropriate amount of independence.
You’ll learn what toxic independence is, where it comes from, and how to overcome it. You might be surprised to learn as you listen that you have more toxic independence traits than you think! I was surprised too. I hope this episode helps you become more aware of your own thoughts and actions and maybe even start to depend on others a little (or a lot) more.
If the thought of giving up your independence makes you cringe, don’t panic. It will all make sense when you tune in.
