LISTENER DISCRETION ADVISED: Parent-listeners beware of curious, listening ears around you as this episode includes S-A-N-T-A and E-L-F content! It’s time to take on the mo’fo holidays & rebranding parenthood rage. Listen in as Mel & Michelle dive into the idea of parenthood and personhood ‘rage’. Rather than something to fear, we lean into the experience of being deeply feeling people - during a season of many feelings. Together we unpack emotional regulation, find ways to try to identify the fuel that's feeding your deeply feeling person fire, and explore strategies to navigate those figurative flames. Sometimes, all it takes is carving out a little space to pause, reflect, identify your trigger fuel, and just breathe.

Key takeaway? Amidst any literal or figurative fires, repeat after us: "I am doing the best I can so take it one step and time,” because 2TNL, you get what you get AND it is actually okay to get upset.
