My toxic traits
We all have toxic traits. These are often the things that, if we allowed ourselves to understand and express, would help our growth exponentially. However, because of the stigma around authenticity, toxic positivity and fake 'nice', we have built this idea that any negative traits or flaws cannot be expressed or shared unless it equates into something that can be used to boost social media engagement, meaning we water down our toxic traits into conversations that will be more 'palatable' as to not disrupt peoples inaccurate ideas of who we are.
This takes away from what true growth is. It's not pretty, and often results in drastic life changes that no one is prepared for but is necessary for true change. Walking on egg shells around what troubles you, makes you angry and the way you genuinely feel towards things is one of the most counter intuitive things you can do.
It's essential to understand that to grow as a person, it's essential to constantly put yourself in situations that make you uncomfortable, no more 'we don't talk about that.' How many of you were told not to bring up certain topics around your parents because it would make them uncomfortable and lead to you walking on egg shells not knowing what was acceptable to bring up or not? Don't repeat those cycles, you'll soon realise the things that were triggers for you come from a place of misunderstanding or misjudgement that can be easily fixed.
