Because even with love in the room,
you can still feel alone in the load.
What is Rage & Release anyways?
WHAT TO EXPECT
A small, emotionally safe space where you can show up as your full, honest self, not just the capable mom who is expected to hold everything together.
You’ll be gently guided to explore what is beneath the anger, express what has been building in a way that feels safe, and connect with mothers who truly understand. You choose what you share, how you participate, and what you are ready to release. You’ll leave feeling lighter, clearer, and more connected to yourself.
Who it’s for
For the mom who loves her family deeply but feels overwhelmed by the mental load, irritation, resentment, guilt, or emotional exhaustion she rarely says out loud.
You do not have to be an “angry mom” or feel rage every day. You only need to be ready to stop carrying everything alone.
What it is NOT
This is not therapy, a space to blame your partner or children, or an invitation to lose control. You will never be forced to share, relive painful experiences, or reveal more than feels right.
Rage & Release is a guided coaching experience rooted in choice, compassion, and emotional safety.

You love your children.
You love your partner.
You love the life you are building.
And still, there are moments in motherhood when the anger feels bigger than you expected.
Not because you do not love your family.
Not because your partner does nothing.
Not because you are ungrateful.
But because even with love in the room, you can still feel alone in the load.
The planning…
The remembering…
The anticipating…
The emotional labour…
The mental tabs always open in your mind…
And then one small thing happens.
Your partner asks where something is, and you snap because your brain is already holding everything.
The bedtime routine falls on you again, even though you are already exhausted.
No one notices what needs to be done until you say it out loud.
And suddenly, the rage rises. Then comes the guilt. The shame. The replaying. The quiet thought:
“Why am I so angry when I love them so much?”
Nothing is wrong with you. You are not broken.
You are overloaded.
WHAT THIS EXPERIENCE IS REALLY ABOUT
A space where your anger is finally understood
Not about blaming your children
Not about attacking your partner
Not about proving anyone is wrong
It is about finally having a space to understand what your anger has been trying to tell you. Because mom rage is rarely just about anger. Sometimes it is resentment from carrying the mental load. Sometimes it is exhaustion from always being needed. Sometimes it is the pain of having support, but still feeling like the manager of everyone’s needs.
Through guided reflection, gentle movement, journaling, honest conversation, creative expression, and symbolic release rituals, you will be invited to explore what is underneath the rage.
Rage & Release is a reflective, creative, and community-based experience. It is not therapy or a replacement for mental health care.
You do not have to perform here. You get to be human.
Sharing is always optional. You will never be pressured to speak before you are ready. This is a facilitated space designed for honesty, compassion, and emotional safety.
Why Mom Rage Happens
Mom rage is rarely about one moment. It often builds from carrying the mental load, emotional labour, overstimulation, decision fatigue, resentment, unmet needs, too little rest, and the pressure of always being the default parent.
When you have been holding too much for too long, one small moment can feel like the final straw. Your anger does not make you a bad mom. It may be a signal that something needs support, rest, clearer boundaries, or change.
WHAT YOU’LL EXPERIENCE
You’ll be gently guided through
You’ll be guided step by step through a structured, emotionally safe experience where you can be honest about what motherhood has been feeling like. There is no judgment and no pressure to share.
You’ll explore what has been building beneath your anger, express what you have been carrying through reflection and creative practices, and experience a meaningful symbolic release. You choose how much you share and how you participate.
You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of what you need, a new perspective on your anger, and more compassion for yourself.

“It is not always easy to admit mom rage. I felt invited and comfortable to share my personal story, and it was a nice experience to feel free, doing creative activities and healing at the same time. I would recommend it to others — a must-attend workshop.”
— Claire
This is not about making beautiful art.
This is about giving yourself permission to feel what you feel without shame.
You’ll leave feeling lighter, less alone, and more grounded
WHAT YOU’LL GAIN
You’ll begin to understand your anger as information, not a personal failure.
You’ll have language for what has felt hard to explain, and permission to ask for what you need.
You’ll feel more grounded in your body and less alone in motherhood.
Most of all, you’ll remember: you are not a bad mom. You are an overwhelmed mother who deserves support.
Does this sound like you?
You think, “I love my family so much. Why do I still feel so angry sometimes?”
You stay quiet until you snap, then feel guilty afterward.
You keep thinking, “I should be able to handle this better.”
You love your family, but feel exhausted by how much everyone needs from you.
You have support, but still feel like the default parent, planner, manager, and emotional anchor.
You carry resentment, then judge yourself for feeling it.
You are ready to stop shaming your anger and start listening to what it has been trying to tell you.
You do not have to reach a breaking point. You deserve a space where you can be honest, feel understood, and begin releasing what has become too heavy.
-
“I walked away feeling deeply seen, more connected to myself, and noticeably lighter in my emotions. If you’re craving a space to release, to be yourself, and to feel like you truly belong — I can’t recommend this workshop enough.”
— Julie
