This week on our journey back through the From Pissed Off to Poised podcast, we’re revisiting an episode that many listeners asked for—and I’m so glad they did.
In this conversation, I walk through a real-life example using the Uplevel Your Awareness Around Anger worksheet—a tool designed to help you slow down and actually see what’s happening beneath the surface when anger shows up.
Anger often feels immediate and consuming. But when we pause to ask gentle, curious questions, we can uncover what’s really going on. Maybe it’s fear. Maybe it’s feeling disrespected or dismissed. Maybe it’s just the overwhelm of trying to do it all.
In this episode, I show how simple this reflection practice can be—and how powerful it becomes over time.
We’ll explore:
💭 What it looks like to observe your anger without judgment
💭 How we resist, avoid, or react instead of pausing
💭 What it means to respond from a place of intention—not impulse
Especially in relationships, where things can feel tender or complicated, these moments of awareness can shift everything.
If you’ve ever felt like your reactions are too fast, too big, or just not quite you, this episode is a chance to practice something different—with compassion, not criticism.
