What if your mom rage isn't something to fix, but something to understand? In this powerful conversation with trauma-informed physical therapist and somatic coach Amanda Curry PT, DPT, we explore the hidden gifts beneath anger and rage, why "calming down" isn't always the answer, and how your anger center is directly connected to your personal power. This episode will shift how you think about your emotions and open up possibilities you never imagined.

Meet Amanda:

Amanda Curry is a trauma-informed Doctor of Physical Therapy, Certified Oncology Specialist, Training Camp for the Soul™ Master Facilitator, Breathwork Facilitator, Inner child and Reparenting Coach 

Amanda has a fierce commitment to supporting those who struggle with feeling they are “ too much” and are tired of living in shame and denial of their true essence.

• Why your anger is actually a communication system and boundary violation alert - not a character flaw

• The three-part "triune" approach to somatic work that addresses your physical, emotional, and spiritual body

• How to start building safety with your emotions through simple noticing and witnessing practices

• Why your anger center is directly connected to your personal power and autonomy

• The difference between regulating emotions and trying to control them

• How societal conditioning keeps women disconnected from their natural emotional range

"Your anger center is directly related to your power center. On the other side or through the expression of your anger, you actually drop the mask or the pattern or the belief, and what you get to access is your personal power and autonomy."

"The goal is for you to be more present and not perfect. If you can be equipped with tools to go from a 10 to a six or an eight to a four, that is doing something."

"Healing PMDD isn't just about managing symptoms, it's about transforming your life. This challenge, as brutal as it can be, is an invitation to know yourself more deeply and live a more joyful purpose filled life."
