Toxic Positivity & Whiteness in Wellness
Manage episode 277454327 series 2808419
From goop, to bone broth, to yoga - why is the "wellness" space only legitimized by white-owned companies that profit off appropriating practices from racialize cultures? Why is it always focused on individual wellness opposed to overall wellness of others? Today's discussion is on how health isn't accessible to all, and isn't created with intersectionality in mind. Also, how it seems to be concentrated in toxic positivity (the live~ love~ laugh~) while smothering over systemic issues.
