Zero Fs Given! Strategies for Neurodivergent and Gifted Adults to Live Fearlessly and Find Joy

Ep 8 - Rage and Caffeine or Denial and Wine? Dealing with Anger with Guest Jeanne Retief


Listen Later

Dealing with rooted-in-childhood anger is never an easy thing. In this fascinating interview, Mel and Jeannie get vulnerable and talk about:

  • How each of them dealt with unexpressed anger as adults
  • The results of doing so, and how to begin moving forward
  • The effects of Jeannie’s anger on her marriage - but how her marriage helped her move through the anger
  • Distinguishing between the feeling/emotion of anger and behavior
  • How caring for your teeth is an analogy for dealing with your feelings (whaaa?)
  • And more…
  • “You teach people how to treat you by what you allow, what you stop, and what you reinforce.”    Tony A Gaskins, Jr
