The Dragon Inside: Why Does Anger Feel So Consuming?

We’ve all had those moments.
The spilled drink. The endless questions. The noise. The mess. One tiny thing happens, and suddenly it feels like a fire has been lit inside of us.
In this episode, I’m opening up about something I’ve struggled with for as long as I can remember—anger.
Not because I enjoy talking about it, but because I’m still trying to understand it.
Is anger something we’re born with, or is it something we learn? Why can it feel so overwhelming, even when we know we’re overreacting? And what if that “dragon” inside us isn’t actually trying to hurt us…what if it’s been trying to protect us all along?
I share my own experiences growing up, navigating motherhood, living with a nervous system that sometimes reacts before my brain can catch up, and the guilt that often follows. This isn’t an episode from someone who’s figured it all out. It’s a conversation from someone who’s still doing the work.
If you’ve ever snapped at someone you love, felt ashamed afterward, or wondered why your fuse seems so short, I hope this reminds you that you’re not alone—and that healing isn’t about becoming perfect. It’s about noticing, learning, repairing, and growing one small step at a time.
We’re all still figuring it out together.
