Ep. 106 : Help for When Mommy Anger is Destructive, with Natalie Hixson

Whether or not you’ve ever had anger issues before, Motherhood seems to have a way of revealing even hidden anger issues for moms!  While anger is a normal and even healthy emotion, it can be handled in negative and destructive ways which can hurt our kids and destroy our relationship with them.  This is something I have personally dealt wit in the past, and I’ve heard from so many moms who feel shame and sadness over how this has affected their parenting.  Today’s guest, Natalie Hixson, shares her story of overcoming destructive mommy anger, and how this led her to learn more about the problem and ultimately become a coach, helping other women overcome destructive anger habits.  This episode is full of compassion and encouragement as well as practical tips and tools. Natalie also offers a free “Triggers Tracker” download.
