Riteous Anger At Its Finest with Bianca Sprague
Manage episode 432027058 series 3443274
Have you ever felt like you’re on the brink of burning up in a fit of rage, only to tamp it all down as a way to survive?
If so, Bianca is your gal! Bianca Sprague is a passionate educator and advocate in the doula community, focusing her expertise on supporting women and queer individuals in the fields of fertility, birth, and postpartum care. As a self- identified 'super lesbian' and a dedicated mother, Bianca brings a unique perspective to her work, emphasizing the importance of balancing professional doula responsibilities with personal life, especially for mothers. She is deeply committed to addressing issues like queer care, combating fatphobia in medicine, and exploring women's rage and its implications.
In this episode of The Mother’s Empowerment Podcast, Bianca explains the difference between rage and anger, describing how rage is a more intense emotion that is often suppressed or misdirected due to societal conditioning. She emphasizes the importance of acknowledging and expressing rage in healthy ways, rather than turning it inward or lashing out inappropriately. So important for us mamas! I opened up about the challenges I faced, with rage including my experience, in real time, with my teenage daughter and my own struggles with overwhelm and shame. I also share the incredible success I’ve had around expressing my rage in healthy ways, attributing it to being in community where rage is seen as a superpower. Lastly, I get a little vulnerable and share how tapping into the power of a safe community is important for expansive support around complicated emotions. Listen in to discover how you too can navigate your own way through the underworld of rage so you can feel truly empowered.
