Highlights
- (17:14) In stead of questioning our roles, and the expectations on us, we question our rage. This is the first habit we must change - it can be self-gaslighting and actually continues cycles of suppression.
- (18:00) those contributing to suppression of our power or resources in any way often are not consciously aware of how they're contributing.
- (18:30) Unlike a corporate or legal system, our domestic systems within our families are sometimes the most unquestioned systems we participate in. (Unless we question them... which I believe our rage is coming up to help us do.)
- (19:20) one of the main purposes of your rage / anger is to call your attention toward questioning the systems, norms and expectations you're living under. (disrupt, baby!)
- (19:30) the least helpful thing you could do to your rage, is think you're crazy for feeling it.
- (20:00) Your rage will be the only thing bigger than your fear of not being submissive/your learned behavior to not disrupt.
- (32 mins) It's more socially accepted to be sad/depressive/shut down than it is to be angry, so a lot of us just park-it in the 'sad' zone.
- (33:50) One of the most sneaky ways we mute ourselves is self-pity.
- (the last 20 mins of Q&A) There really are times where the system (whether a family system, government system, health care system, etc.) blocks your freedom to some degree, and sometimes you don't have the skills or resources to create a solution. In those cases, the best thing you can do is let your rage come all the way up and out with safe parameters, regularly. (Because suppressing the rage further depletes you.) Hang in circles where it is validated as you continue to work towards a solution and personal liberty.

My beautiful clients are so generous:
Tiana said: "As each week progressed I noticed my communication improved with my husband, I began to feel so much calmer when my baby cried, I could release emotions without them taking total control of my day, and then suddenly one morning I felt different waking up than I had any other morning in the past 3 years. I woke up Happy."
K.N., said: "Before Postpartum Freedom, I couldn’t get out of bed in the morning. My husband would have to take off work to stay home and take care of me and the kids… I daydreamed about leaving my family. …Now I can bear to be touched by my toddler. I can bear to play with my kids. I can FEEL JOY when my kids are playing together. I was on the fence about getting coaching. I’m here today, climbing my way out of a PPD black hole and beginning to thrive in my motherhood. I will never be on the fence when it comes to my mental health again."
