    I so love your videos! However, you triggered one of my pet peeves that I have and that's "toxic positivity." An example would be the phrase "You're perfect just the way you are." And a person might respond, "I'm afraid that I'm not perfect. I have depression and I'm feeling a little helpless and hopeless. This does not feel at all like perfect." That's an extreme example, but you get the idea. An affirmation should be realistic as well as inspiring.

    Ok I like the idea of encouraging when someone makes a mistake. But what if someone doesn’t make a mistake and does something willfully wrong? What would be the response to this? This one is hard for me because I had parental figures who reprimanded me hard
