E64: Grief and Anger: 3 Practical Tools for When Loss Makes You Mad
Anger is one of the most common—and misunderstood—emotions in grief. I'm outlining why anger doesn't have to make sense to be valid, how anger is perceived differently depending on who you are and how you show up in the world, and three practical tools to help you work with your anger instead of fighting it.
You'll learn:
Why anger doesn't need to be logical or justified to be real
How anger lives on a spectrum, from micro irritation to full-blown rage
How anger is perceived and treated differently depending on your gender, culture, age, and identity
Three helpful tools for coping with anger after loss
Why anger deserves a place in your grief, not judgment or shame
