Caregiver anger is real and no one talks about it.
If you’re a cancer caregiver feeling angry at the medical system, frustrated with family, resentful of the constant responsibility, or secretly furious at yourself… this episode is for you.
Caregiver burnout doesn’t always look like exhaustion. Sometimes it looks like a tight jaw. A short temper. A bathroom cry you don’t fully understand.
In this episode, we unpack:
- Why anger is a normal response to caregiving stress
- The hidden link between caregiver resentment and grief
- How suppressing anger fuels burnout
- A simple 2-question tool to process anger without exploding or shutting down
If you're navigating cancer caregiving stress, scanxiety, emotional exhaustion, or caregiver guilt... press play.
Because self-preservation starts with telling the truth about what you feel.
