Rewind: We Have Good Reason to Be Angry with Yara Heary
Did you feel totally unprepared for just how angry you might feel after becoming a mom? You’re not alone. In this episode, Rachael sits down with psychologist Yara Heary to unpack why anger shows up so often in early motherhood and why it’s not something to feel ashamed of.
Together, they explore the identity shifts that happen postpartum, the strain on relationships, and the nervous system challenges that can leave us feeling triggered. Yara offers compassionate, practical tools to understand your anger, support yourself before it boils over, and move through motherhood with more ease and self-compassion.
Inside this episode:
Why anger is a normal and valid part of postpartum life
How shifting identities and relationship changes fuel resentment
The role of expectations in couples after a baby
Tools to support your nervous system before anger escalates
What to do when you feel triggered by your kids or partner
Practicing self-compassion and connecting with your inner child
How to assume the best of our children and others around us
