If you know your anger is hurting your relationships, but you keep putting off getting help, this episode is for you. In this eye-opening conversation, anger expert Alastair Duhs unpacks the five most common objections that stop people from taking action on their anger. Whether it’s fear, pride, doubt or simply feeling “too busy,” you’ll learn how to overcome the internal resistance that keeps you stuck - and discover why change is simpler and closer than you think. Key Takeaways: -Avoidance isn’t laziness—it’s fear. But naming that fear can take away its power. -Believing you should “fix it on your own” is a trap—real strength is knowing when to ask for help. -You’re not uniquely broken—anger follows a predictable pattern that can be changed with the right tools. -Lasting change doesn’t require years of therapy—it often starts with 10 minutes a day and consistent effort. -The cost of doing nothing—damaged relationships, missed opportunities and emotional pain—is far higher than the cost of change.
