Stop scrolling for a second.  Let me ask you something that might sting:  Who told you that you were broken & why did you decide to believe them? We are constantly bombarded with "Good Vibes Only" and toxic positivity. We’re told that if we just think happy thoughts, our problems will vanish. But you & I both know that’s not how it works. In fact, the more we fight the "darkness," the more it consumes us. Real Emotional Fitness isn't about ignoring the cracks in your life.
