Anger...it was one of my top emotions that I felt intensely and for a long time, but it's one of those emotions we feel we shouldn't experience with grief.

Anger is very common amongst many grievers and there are so many reasons to feel anger following the death of a loved one. In life, we often get angry when we can't control what is happening to us or we don't like the outcome of something. Death is one of those things we have absolutely no control over.

Julie shares her own journey with anger and dives into the importance of finding the hidden emotions underneath your anger and how to express your anger in a healthy way.

We don't always realize how much anger we are holding onto, take a listen and see what resonates with you on your grief journey.
