🎙️The wildfire within: restoring a sacred relationship to feminine anger

In this first episode of The Marcella Principle, I explore how you can free yourself from the extremes of acting anger in or acting it out and instead honor the wildfire within by coming into wise relationship with this life-giving energy.

It feels fitting that anger is my inaugural topic for this podcast. Because anger, just like this episode, is by its nature rough around the edges.

After alligator-wrestling with GarageBand and a dozen other tech gremlins and cussing up a blue streak … after fretting and fussing about this detail and that … I’ve decided to trust that you, my beloved audience, will hear helpful words in my lumpy initial foray into podcast land.

So many of us women are afraid to release our voices into the world. Heaven forbid we burp, or fart, or discover spinach in our teeth in the midst of our impassioned speech.

But today I say, “Done is better than perfect.” And imperfect truth is better than polished procrastination, don’t you agree?

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• The ecological fallout of suppressing anger

• The difference between acting in, acting out, and acting wisely

• How anger, when honored, can deepen intimacy and fuel healing

• Somatic and earth-based practices to metabolize anger

• The flaming threads that connect rage, shame, boundaries, and body trust

How does anger show up for you? What has been the cost of your personal wildfire suppression? What would it take for you to come into respectful relationship with your native anger?
