We all want peace in our life. We all want healthy relationships. We all want positivity to surround us. Therefore we tend to stay away from toxic and negative people. But sometimes, this need to keep toxic and negative people out of our circle is also making us THE toxic and negative person to others. And we may not realize it because we are doing it unconsciously and unintentionally.

In this episode of On Purpose, Jay Shetty covers the different types of unhealthy behaviors that make relationships draining and how we can carry ourselves with positive energy and optimistic views.
