S4E4: Mom Rage: Why Good Moms Lose Their Temper
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Why do moms experience rage? And why does no one talk about it?
If you’ve ever snapped at your kids and immediately felt crushing guilt… this episode is for you.
In this episode of Pearls of Motherhood, Tessie and Diana unpack the very real (and very common) experience of mom rage—those moments when the overwhelm, exhaustion, and constant demands of motherhood boil over.
Instead of shaming the anger, we ask a deeper question:
What if mom rage isn’t a failure… but a signal?
We talk about the real pressures behind it, including:
• chronic overstimulation
• the invisible labor and mental load of motherhood
• lack of support many moms quietly carry
• why guilt keeps us stuck in the cycle
We also share practical ways to pause, regulate, and repair when those big emotions hit.
This conversation is honest, compassionate, and deeply validating for any mom who has ever wondered, “Why do I feel like this?”
Because the truth is: you’re not a bad mom. You’re a human being doing one of the hardest jobs in the world.
