There are moments in motherhood when the anger surprises you.
The snapping. The heat in your chest. The shame that follows.

In this episode, we talk openly about mom rage aka the momster—what it is, where it comes from, and why it’s so often misunderstood. This isn’t about losing control or harming your kids. It’s about overwhelm, overstimulation, unmet needs, and nervous systems that have been carrying too much for too long.

Together, we unpack the guilt spiral that so many moms experience after a hard moment, challenge the belief that “good moms don’t get angry,” and offer grounded, realistic ways to repair and recover—without shame, fixing, or toxic calm-down advice.

This conversation is honest, warm, and deeply normalizing. If you’ve ever thought “This isn’t who I thought I’d be”—you’re not alone.
