In this episode, anger expert Alastair Duhs talks with Fiona - a small business owner and mother who grew up surrounded by family violence and spent years struggling with anger in her marriage. Just seven weeks into the Complete Anger Management System, Fiona has already made remarkable progress. Her husband has noticed. She has noticed. And the insight that changed everything for her was surprisingly simple. If you've ever felt stuck in patterns that stretch back to your childhood, Fiona's story will show you what's possible, and how quickly things can shift when you focus on what you can actually control. Key Takeaways: You can't change other people, but you can change how you respond to them. That single realisation was Fiona's turning point. Learning to use the Tension Scale early is one of the most powerful anger management skills. Catching anger before it peaks creates a window for a different choice. The thoughts and feelings model works beyond just anger. It helps you respond differently in all kinds of difficult situations. Change doesn't have to be public. Fiona worked through the course privately, on her own schedule, without anyone needing to know. Progress isn't perfect, but it is real. Seven weeks in, Fiona hadn't had a significant anger episode since starting the course.
