Struggling with mom anger and feeling ashamed of how you react to your kids? You’re not alone. Every mom I’ve ever met (including me!) has struggled with mom anger to some degree in various seasons of their motherhood. How can we manage these overwhelming feelings in a way that offers both understanding for the emotions and practical solutions to stop the tension?
In this honest conversation, anger management coach Elizabeth Andreyevskiy shares her personal story of explosive mom rage, the shame that followed, and how God led her toward healing.
Learn what’s really underneath reactive anger, how overwhelming sensory stimulation (hello early parenting years!) fuel anger, and practical steps to respond with more calm, patience, and hope in Christian motherhood.
