Making Space for Grief and Anger

Get "Liberate Your Business" by Becky Mollenkamp https://liberateyourbusiness.com/Grief is always in the room—and in this raw and powerful conversation, Becky and Taina explore the emotional weight of loss, anger, and what it means to truly feel your feelings. They unpack their personal experiences with recent death, the stigma around female rage, and why American culture is so broken when it comes to grief. From pet loss to patriarchal mindsets, they dive deep into the intersections of anger and grief, why somatic expression matters, and how caretaking roles often obscure our own needs. This episode is a tender reminder that grief and joy, anger and love, can—and do—coexist.Discussed in this episodeWhy grief is always present—even when we don’t acknowledge itHow female anger is suppressed (and why that’s dangerous)The myth of the angry Black womanWhy anger and grief are somatic experiences, not just mentalHow American culture fails at griefThe emotional labor of caretaking and parenting during lossWays we gaslight ourselves through lossVisualization and embodiment practices for emotional releaseResources mentioned"Uses of Anger" by Audre LordeThe Emotions WheelBernadette Pleasant, The Emotional Institute"Patriarchy Stress Disorder" by Dr. Valerie Rein☀️ Join us in the Messy Liberation Coaches Circle🎤 PROUD MEMBERS OF THE FEMINIST PODCASTERS COLLECTIVE
