Positive Frequency Hits the Airwaves
Bringing Real Conversations About Resilience, Well-Being and Positive Change to Radio
It's Not Toxic Positivity. It's Real Life, Real Stories, and Practical Tools for Navigating It.
In a world where negativity can dominate the airwaves, a new radio show is turning up the volume on something different: real conversations about hope, resilience, well-being, and the people making a positive difference in their communities.
Positive Frequency is a new radio show dedicated to amplifying the people, organizations, ideas, and science behind meaningful positive change.
But make no mistake, Positive Frequency isn't about pretending everything is okay, ignoring difficult emotions, or putting a smile on hardship. It isn't toxic positivity.
It's about acknowledging that life can be hard while exploring the tools, perspectives, connections, and practices that can help people navigate those challenges and move forward.
Hosted by Matt Thomas and Christine Carey, Positive Frequency features engaging conversations with community leaders, nonprofit organizations, educators, mental health professionals, researchers, and individuals whose personal stories demonstrate the power of resilience, hope, and human connection.
Listeners will hear conversations about:
- Individuals who have transformed personal challenges into opportunities to help others
- Nonprofits and innovative organizations creating meaningful change
- Simple, actionable tools listeners can take into their everyday lives
- Daily habits and practices that can support mental and emotional wellness
- How mindset can influence our mental, emotional, and physical well-being
- Resilience and the lessons that can come from adversity
- The importance of connection, community, and asking for support
Positive Frequency isn't about putting a positive spin on everything. It's about recognizing that challenges are part of life and asking, What can we do with them? How can we respond? Where can we find support? We want to have honest conversations while also reminding people that they have more tools, choices, and possibilities than they may realize.
Turning Up the Volume on Good!
Radio has always had the power to connect people through stories and conversation. Positive Frequency uses that power to spotlight individuals and organizations who are creating meaningful change, often without receiving the recognition they deserve.
Each episode will introduce listeners to people doing inspiring work while providing practical takeaways they can apply in their own lives.
The goal isn't simply to make listeners feel good for an hour. It's to leave them with a new idea, a useful tool, a different perspective, or a renewed sense of possibility.
At its core, Positive Frequency is built around one belief: Positivity isn't about ignoring what is difficult. It's about developing the skills to navigate what is difficult without losing hope.
Positive Frequency hits the airwaves Oct. 13, 2026 on KOCI 101.5 every second Tuesday of the month.
