Anger isn't the enemy; it's a warning sign.

Most people try to manage their anger by suppressing it, venting it, or apologizing after it. But none of that addresses the real issue. Anger is the smoke. Somewhere underneath, there's a fire, and until you find it, nothing changes.

In this episode, Pastor Ed Snyder draws on more than 30 years of experience as a pastor, author, and law enforcement chaplain to help you:

Understand why anger is a symptom, not the root problem

Identify what's actually fueling your emotional reactions

Stop responding in ways you regret

Lead yourself, your family, and your team with greater confidence

Whether you're dealing with conflict at home, pressure at work, or stress in leadership — this conversation will help you stop chasing the smoke and start addressing the fire.
