Hosted by psychiatric nurse, addiction specialist, and recovery coach Kate Vitela, RN, this podcast explores the neuroscience of addiction, emotional sobriety, mindset change, and the messy, honest reality of rebuilding your life after quitting drinking. This is not a preachy recovery podcast full of toxic positivity or shame. It’s real conversations about: women and alcohol gray area drinking anxiety and emotional regulation perfectionism and people pleasing cravings and habit loops neuroplasticity and brain rewiring identity in midlife anger, grief, and healing creativity, fashion, and self-expression in recovery relationships, boundaries, and self-trust learning how to feel your feelings without numbing them Kate combines clinical insight, lived experience, humor, and a feminist lens to help women understand why they drink, not just how to stop.

You’re finally paying attention. In this episode, we’re talking about something that gets misunderstood, minimized, and straight-up pathologized—especially in women: Rage. Not surface-level irritation. Not “I need a bubble bath.” I’m talking about the kind of anger that makes you look at your life and go: “Are you kidding me?” This isn’t a “calm down and regulate” conversation. This is about sacred rage —what happens when you stop suppressing yourself, stop numbing out, and start seeing things clearly. We’re getting into: Why anger often explodes in early sobriety (and why that’s normal) The difference between anger and resentment (one moves, one traps you) How women are conditioned to suppress anger—and why that’s not accidental Why “look at your part” can actually backfire for women What anger is really protecting (hint: it’s not just anger) How triggers aren’t problems—they’re information The connection between rage, grief, shame, and heartbreak Why humor might be one of your most underrated tools in recovery How to actually work with your anger instead of bypassing it Because here’s the truth: Anger isn’t dysfunction. It’s data. And when you stop trying to eliminate it—and start understanding it—it becomes something else entirely: Clarity. Power. Direction. This episode is for the woman who: Feels more intense since getting sober Is tired of being told to “just let it go” Knows something isn’t right—but hasn’t fully trusted herself yet Is done being agreeable, quiet, and easy to manage You don’t need to become unbothered to heal. You need to become honest. KEY TAKEAWAYS Anger is activating and truth-telling; resentment is looping and draining Women’s anger has been historically minimized to maintain control Early sobriety removes the buf…","meta_description":"Mama- You’re not too angry.
