Memoirs of an LDS Servant Teacher

When Anger Isn’t Wrong


Listen Later

“What if I’m not overreacting?”
“What if my strong feelings are actually part of the right response?”

For many women, feeling anger—especially in relationships—can come with guilt, confusion, or shame. You wonder if you're losing control, being too emotional, or somehow stepping out of your values.

But what if your anger wasn’t a mistake?
What if it was supposed to be there—strategic, planned, even sacred?

In this episode of Memoirs of an LDS Servant Teacher, we confront the myth that all strong emotion is a loss of control. Maurice explores the difference between reactive rage and righteous indignation—the kind that even Christ himself modeled. We dive into how to create spiritual safety protocols, handle emotional or mental health patterns like OCD or bipolar, and stop trying to “change the weather” when the better answer is to move to higher ground.

Inside, you’ll discover:

  • When anger is a divine signal—not a moral failure

  • How to build a practiced emotional response plan before triggers hit

  • The myth of controlling others as your safety plan

  • What the Savior’s example really teaches about standing in strength

  • Why your mental health patterns aren’t broken—but can be used as a gift

  • How to turn OCD or emotional waves into powerful purpose

You don’t have to suppress your emotions. You need to train them—on purpose, with love, and with strategy.
