    This is NOT for everyone (mom rage)

    Anger isn't the thing that's uncomfortable, the suppression of it is.  Kinda like when you try to hold in a fart...kidding..but keep reading. I got restricted on instagram the same hour I announced Unhinged. Daddy zuckerberg really said not today. Anyway, I  was mid-DM with a mom this morning who told me she’s done therapy, couples counseling, EMDR, career changes, breathwork, all of it & still feels lost, still feels out of control with her anger, & still doesn’t feel like herself. I just had to get on here and say what I said to her because I think we have this completely backwards. Anger is not the thing you regulate through, it's the thing you listen to. It’s an emotion, like fear, like happiness, like grief, all of those emotions run on a cycle and that cycle has to complete itself. When you cut it off, "because it’s not appropriate", because it makes people "uncomfortable", because you’ve been called "hysterical" one too many times.....it doesn’t go away, it just builds. It leaks out as depression, numbness, fog, resentment, snapping at your kids, silently losing your mind. Here's what I rant about in today's episode. why you’re probably not actually angry, you’re frozenthe boohoo tuba (Hello HBA'ers)  & why it exists in the first placeanger as information, boundaries, voice, and actionwhy the entire nervous system industry has it backwards for womenmom rage is not something to regulate, it’s something to listen to.why I asked women to scream in their cars during Wired and what happened afterwhat anger actually unlocked for me this yearAnd finally, because instagram might now show you it: UNHINGED

    I Was Wrong About Antidepressants

    I started an antidepressant. I didn't write notes for this one, didn't organize my thoughts, I just hit record on my voice memo app like I always do when I get the feeling that something needs to be said out loud. If you saw my post yesterday you know I made the decision to start an SNRI.  There is no way to say everything that led to that decision in an instagram caption or a 30 second reel, so... here we are. I've been living in this really confusing duality for a long time now. genuinely, deeply happy. and also the saddest I've ever been. both true at the same time. and I've spent this entire year trying to get to the bottom of it: HRT, trauma therapy, coaching, rest, pulling back on my business, all of it. I've exhausted every single tool in my toolbox except one. This episode is about that one. what we get into: the duality of being the happiest and saddest I've ever been at the same timecomplex PTSD, PMDD, postpartum depression, and what happens when you've tried everything elsewhat my coach said to me mid-flare that finally made something clickwhy I was against medication for so long and where that belief came fromthe moment — back to back family news in one day — that was my thresholdthe cycle I didn't realize I was repeating by staying stubborn about thiswhy 100+ women commented on my reel saying they feel the exact same way (and what that means)This isn't me telling you what to do, it's just me telling you my story. If you see yourself in any of it... that's why I put it out there. FREE Stress Tool
