Unscripted: Reframing “Mom Rage”

Season 1, Episode 19

Parenthood brings up a myriad of emotions, many of which were buried deep down until a comment or an eye-roll bubbles the feelings to the surface. If you're a highly sensitive person and empath like Amy, then you know how quickly moms can go from calm to She-Hulk. (Amy's current PR: 2.5 seconds.)

Rage and anger is often branded as an unspeakable topic. In this first show of a new And More series, Unscripted, Amy draws upon the experts to propose a new option: Anger shows us where our unmet needs are. In this episode, we discuss shame, empathy, and a story of repair after things spiraled off the rails this weekend.
