"They called me “too happy” my whole life, and I never let it bother me! In fact, I made it my career and my superpower."
In this unapologetically joyful episode, Nadia dives headfirst into the misunderstood world of “toxic positivity” and flips the script on what it really means to live with light, optimism, and energy, especially in a culture addicted to stress and seriousness.
She shares personal stories of being labeled “too much,” “too upbeat,” or “too positive,” and how she turned that into fuel instead of shame. You’ll get practical coaching tools to help you own your joy without guilt.
If you’ve ever felt like your light made other people uncomfortable, this episode is for you. It’s not about being fake. It’s about being free. And choosing joy? That’s a radical act of defiance in a world full of negativity.
