Ever had a moment where someone else's joy didn't make you happy? Today on Be Crazy Well, we have an illuminating conversation about navigating complex emotions like anger, resentment, and the blurred lines of fear and sadness that they often mask. Through a poignant narrative about a mother and her two daughters, we tackle the concept of 'learned helplessness' and reveal how sometimes, in our quest to do good, we might just be causing more harm. This episode paints a vivid picture of how our reactions to trauma can shape our lives and the role of mental health practices in helping us to become the individuals we aspire to be.


Are we poisoning ourselves with resentment? What happens when we hold expectations for the people we help? As we peel back these layers, we discuss the potential dangers resentment poses to our physical, emotional, intellectual, spiritual, and financial health. Along the way, we question why anger isn't recognized as a primary emotion and why it's crucial to teach our children self-care. Join us as we explore these intriguing topics and more, demonstrating how understanding and embracing our emotions can propel us towards personal growth. Remember, growth isn’t always about moving forward, but sometimes about digging deep. So grab your headphones and join the mental health evolution with Be Crazy Well.
