😡 Let's talk RAGE!In this powerful episode, Nat is joined by clinical psychologist Dr. Jenny Turner to unpack the topic of mum rage. Together, they explore the hidden roots of rage in motherhood, why it’s not just a "mum problem," and how unmet needs play a pivotal role in these intense emotional moments. With 15 years of experience supporting mothers, Dr. Jenny shares invaluable insights on how societal expectations and isolation contribute to the "volcanic rage" many mothers experience.
This is part one of a two-part conversation. In this episode, they discuss:
- Why the term “mum rage” might be unhelpful
- The link between rage and unmet needs
- How unmet needs contribute to the experience of rage
- Why rage often shows up later in motherhood, not just in the early postpartum period
- The profound impact of disconnection from our authentic selves on modern motherhood
Nat shares her own experiences of mum rage, and Jenny’s reflections are both validating and eye-opening. This conversation will leave you feeling seen, supported, and ready to approach these feelings with compassion rather than shame.
