Alive & Well – Burnout, Anxiety, Nervous System, Productivity, Time Management, Somatic Tools, Work-Life Balance

Do you ever feel like you’re holding it all together on the outside—but underneath, you’re simmering?

You’re not losing your mind. You’re likely holding unprocessed anger.

In this episode, we’re diving into one of the most misunderstood emotions—especially for women: anger.

For years, I didn’t even realize I was angry. I told myself I was “fine,” “chill,” “rational.” But under all that composure was a nervous system running on tension and suppressed emotion.

And here’s the truth: when anger isn’t processed, it doesn’t disappear—it just leaks out as resentment, irritability, control, or passive aggression.

You’ll learn:
✔️ The neuroscience of anger—what’s happening in your brain and body when you suppress versus express it
✔️ How unprocessed anger quietly drains your energy, shrinks your window of tolerance, and impacts your relationships
✔️ The four ways suppressed anger most commonly shows up (and how to spot them)
✔️ Practical, body-based ways to process and release anger safely—from movement and sound to prayer and breathwork

💡 Anger isn’t a flaw. It’s a signal from your body that something needs attention. When you learn how to work with it instead of against it, you reclaim energy, peace, and presence—not just for yourself, but for everyone around you.
