   What to Do When Rage Hits in Motherhood: A Gentle, Therapist-Led Framework

   Do you ever feel like you can’t get through a day of motherhood without snapping, yelling, or feeling completely out of control inside your body? Do you find yourself sacrificing your sense of calm, safety, or even self-recognition just to make it through the endless crying, touching, noise, and demands? What if instead of believing something is wrong with you, you could understand exactly why rage is showing up, and know what to do when it does? It’s possible.And it’s not because you need more self-control, patience, or willpower. In this episode, I’m going to walk you through what postpartum rage actually is, why it’s so common (even though no one talks about it), and how to respond in a way that reduces shame and helps your nervous system settle, rather than explode. If you’re like most mothers in early motherhood, you want to feel calm, connected, and loving… but instead you feel depleted, overstimulated, and terrified by the intensity of your anger. In today’s episode, I share: Why postpartum rage is a nervous system survival response, not a personal failure What your anger is actually trying to tell you A gentle, therapist-led framework you can use in the moment when rage hits How to repair after snapping at your baby or partner, without drowning in guilt What may be underneath the rage, including unmet needs, perfectionism, and burnout This is not about suppressing your anger.It’s about learning how to listen to it safely. Whether your rage shows up during sleep deprivation, overstimulation, or moments that scare you afterward. Whether you feel ashamed, confused, or afraid of your own reactions You can learn to work with your nervous system instead of fighting it, and begin responding to anger with clarity, compassion, and support. This episode will help you feel less alone, less broken, and more equipped the next time rage rises. With so much gentleness,Dina Loved this episode?!

Are you constantly researching, polling friends, Googling, or replaying decisions long after they’re made, just to make sure you didn’t get it “wrong”?

In this episode, Dina (trauma therapist and maternal mental health specialist), speaks directly to new moms navigating early motherhood, postpartum overwhelm, and the intense New Year pressure that often hits after having a baby. Instead of “New Year, New Me,” this conversation offers a gentler, research-informed approach centered on support, presence, and thriving, not perfection or productivity. In This Episode, We Talk About: Why early motherhood is an identity shift, not a motivation problem How New Year pressure fuels postpartum overwhelm and burnout The difference between surviving motherhood and thriving in it Why traditional resolutions don’t work for new moms What “good enough motherhood” really means How emotional support helps moms feel present, grounded, and connected Why support, not willpower, is the key to enjoying early motherhood You Don’t Need a New You, You Need Support Thriving in motherhood isn’t about becoming someone different. It’s about learning how to navigate this transition with tools that work with your nervous system, not against it.

And I want to share with you what I've learned both as a therapist and how I've been trained and then also an experience as a mother who's been in the trenches with postpartum rage. Anger or even rage is not inherently bad. It's just information. It's data that your body is giving you. It's your nervous systems way of saying, this is too much, I need something to change, I need help.
