Positivity & Rainbows

Something you come to realise very quickly when you put yourself, your business or your life online is that sooner or later you will receive negative comments or ‘hate’. It can be really stressful, upsetting and hard to deal with. I’ve never publicly spoken about my experience of dealing with bullying or hate online before because its honestly really uncomfortable to talk about and I never want to add more fuel to the fire… but it’s something I’m quite familiar with! From people just leaving unnecessary nasty comments about my appearance, people making snap judgements about who I am, my business or my relationships, or people starting full on hate campaigns (yes, really!) I’ve experienced it all! This week I sat down with my BFF @galadarling, who has also had her fair share of trolling, to chat about our experiences and how we deal with it. If you’ve ever been at the receiving end of mean comments or any form of negativity online, I hope this episode will help you realise that you are not alone. You’re not a bad person because some dingbat on the internet disagrees with you or decides they don’t like you!
