    Ever find yourself snapping over something small… and then immediately feeling guilty?Yeah… same.

    In this episode of FTK Moms, Alicia and Winter are getting real about mom rage — those moments where the overwhelm, noise, constant demands, and mental load all boil over.

    It’s deeper than that.

    We’re talking about:
    ✨ What mom rage actually is (and why it’s more common than you think)
    ✨ The real triggers — overstimulation, mental load, and being “on” 24/7
    ✨ The guilt that hits right after you lose it
    ✨ How to repair, reset, and move forward without shame

    This episode is raw, honest, and probably a little too relatable.
    If you’ve ever thought…
    👉 “Why am I so triggered?”
    👉 “I don’t want to react like this”
    👉 “Am I the only one feeling this way?”
    You are NOT alone. We see you. We are you.
