Understanding Anger: How It Can Help Your Family Connect (Episode 233)

When someone in your family gets angry, does it feel normal, uncomfortable, or like something you need to fix?

What if understanding that anger could help you feel closer?

Kyle and Sara Wester grew up with very different messages about anger. For Kyle, it was an everyday expression. For Sara, it was something to put away quickly. In this honest, sometimes funny conversation, they share how they’ve learned to understand each other and make room for anger without letting it run their family.

Together, they explore:

• Why you and your partner may see anger so differently
• When anger points to hurt or fear, and when it helps us recognize something that needs to change
• How to talk about anger with curiosity and take responsibility for how you express it
• What we want children to learn about feeling angry and speaking up without hurting others

Feeling angry doesn’t mean something is wrong with you or your child. Getting curious about that feeling can lead to conversations your family needs.
