Why Did No One Warn Us About this Midlife Shit? Episode Four

from Thrive with Kira Sabin: A Positive Psychology Podcast

In Episode 4 of my five-part series, I'm talking about something that hits all of us in midlife: the rage. That low-key, high-voltage, "I swear to God if the dishwasher beeps one more time..." kind of rage. Here's the thing: You're not broken. You're not crazy. You're just awake — and your nervous system is officially done putting up with the bullshit. 🧠 In this episode, I'm breaking down: Why the rage isn't random — and why it's not a flaw What's really going on in your body (hello perimenopause, my old frenemy) Why your nervous system is basically a cornered raccoon right now How chronic stress + no emotional processing = midlife meltdown The two sides of unregulated rage: numbing out vs. exploding What NOT to do with all your rage (trust me, I've screamed at a microwave) What to actually do to heal, regulate, and stop losing your shit ✨ Key Takeaway: Rage isn't the problem. It's the flashing neon sign pointing to what needs healing. You don't have to stay stuck in rage mode — and you definitely don't have to figure it out alone. 👯‍♀️ Want to stop white-knuckling through life and finally learn how to regulate, reset, and rebuild your energy (and your life)? Thrive Midlife is my six-month program where we untangle all this shit with tools from neuroscience, positive psychology, and a lot of laughter. 🛠 Check out Thrive Midlife here 📅 Or book a free, no-pressure call with me Follow me on instagram for a joy & truth bomb explosion!
