Description

Welcome to today’s ICYMI, where we kick off the week with a quick game-changing tip from one of our guests that you might have missed. Everybody likes a good venting session, but nobody likes a complainer. So when is it okay to complain? Can complaining be healthy, or is it always a negative thing? Today’s expert, Whitney Goodman, gives us the quick and dirty scoop on why casual complaining is a normal communal exchange, and what to watch out for if it crosses into the dreaded “draining complaining” that can keep us stuck in a negative loop. Whitney Goodman is a psychotherapist, author of the book Toxic Positivity, a columnist for Psychology Today and appears regularly in publications like The New York Times and Teen Vogue.Listen to our full episode with Whitney here!Tune in every Monday for an expert dose of life advice in under 10 minutes.For show notes and more adulting tips, visit: teachmehowtoadult.caSign up for our monthly adulting newsletter:teachmehowtoadult.ca/newsletter Follow us on the ‘gram:instagram.com/teachmehowtoadultmedia @yunggillianaire@cailynmichaanFollow Whitney:sitwithwhit.com@sitwithwhitToxic Positivity: Keeping It Real in a World Obsessed with Being Happy
