Zen Supermom: The Mental Fitness Podcast
I'm not a supermom. But I always wanted to be one and have it all: family, career/business that I love, AND the time for myself. But that ambition without proper stress resistance and resilience killed my mom (cancer at 48) and drove me to the edge of burnout twice. Only when I saw the disastrous effects of my anger, stress, and resentment on my little daughter, I knew I had to change... Since then, not only have I healed but I also helped thousands of other women all around the world through trauma-informed therapy and mental fitness training. And I decided to share the most vulnerable and valuable pieces of my and their journey here. Because if we got out of that dark, stuck place of feeling like a terrible mom, YOU CAN DO IT TOO. So choose the episode that speaks to you and tune in!

Ep 82: Yelling is BAD, But Bottling Up Anger is WORSE?! Here's Why..
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Not shouting at your kids but still feeling that anger, stress, and frustration? That's great.
And also, while it's a bit better for your kids, it's more dangerous for you and your physical help. Because it's been proven that suppressed emotions (especially those resulting from early childhood trauma), increase your chances of becoming physically sick. (Google psycho-neuro-immunology, Dr. Joe Dispenza and Dr. Gabor Mate.)
So what the heck are you suppossed to do if shouting is not ok, and keeping that anger inside of you is not healthy either?

Hi, I’m Alena - founder of Zen Supermom and creator of the IDTR method (Intergenerational Developmental Trauma Repatterning).
I work with thoughtful, committed parents who have already tried to understand themselves - and still find themselves reacting under pressure in ways they don’t want.
My work focuses on changing the underlying pattern that formed early, shows up in the nervous system under stress, and gets passed on to the next generation unless addressed as a whole.
