Episode notes
When did you last let yourself be truly angry?
Not the polite frustration you allow yourself. Not the irritation you immediately apologise for. The real thing.
Most of us, especially women who grew up learning to be good, quiet, and easy, were never taught that anger was allowed. So we stuffed it down. Lid firmly on.
But unfelt anger doesn't disappear. It waits. It turns inward. It comes out sideways, in resentment, in exhaustion, in that low hum of bitterness we can never quite explain.
In this episode we talk about the emotions we were taught to hide, and I introduce the feelings wheel, a simple, powerful tool for finally naming what's really underneath the surface.
Because anger is almost never just anger. And the moment you can name what's beneath it, something begins to shift.
