<p>Hello Sunshine, in today's episode my guest and I discuss trauma, toxic positivity, optimism and mindset. Revie Jane Schultz is one of Australia’s leading content creators, a speaker and has her own podcast Empowered with Revie. Why I am so drawn to Revie is how courageous she is sharing her personal and professional life to her online community. Facing adversity throughout her early childhood, Revie battled depression and anxiety as a teen, and walked a path most could never imagine. </p><p><strong>Trigger warning</strong> - Please note this episode contains discussions about abuse, trauma and suicide. <br>Contact LIFELINE : 13 11 14 for support if you are experiencing a personal crisis.</p><p><strong>🎙️Breakdown of EP #311</strong></p><ul> <li>How Revie &amp; I met</li> <li>Revie shares her story and the trauma she experienced as a childhood</li> <li>Discussion around trauma and CPTSD </li> <li>What is toxic positivity? </li> <li>How to identify it? </li> <li>Why toxic positivity is damaging </li> <li>Toxic positivity vs healthy positivity </li> <li>How to support someone in a healthy way </li> <li>Optimism </li> </ul><p>🎶 Fire Starter of the Week | Somebody Told Me by The Killers<br>🎶 Guest's Fire Starter | Get What You Give by New Radicals <br>🔥 Thought of the Week | “A fake smile may fool the crowd but it never eases the pain.” – <em>Kelly Brook</em></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong>RESOURCES: <br></strong><a href="https://www.courtneymangan.com.au/shop"><strong>Purchase my stationery</strong></a><strong> <br></strong><a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/386137578864686"><strong>Join my closed Facebook group</strong></a><strong><br></strong>🎶 <a href="https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0apKTqh8cM3u4KMvCmYK63?si=1KMMzPJHQziuTyGigM5T-w">Time Blocking Playlist </a><br>🎶 <a href="https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4Lp42Q7fru9qC9ARZboyIl?si=VA7s3yGlQ4yUpyDNn4OvRA">Fire Starter Playlist </a><strong><em><br></em></strong><br></p><p><strong>If you would like to show your support for she was the f
