What is anger?
Brené Brown, author of Atlas of the Heart (a book we are obsessed with), defined anger as:
An emotion that we feel when something gets in the way of a desired outcome or when we believe there’s a violation of the way things should be.
Anger is a powerful emotion. It can make us feel strong and in control, or it can make us feel out of control and destructive. But whatever kind of anger we feel, one thing is always true: We believe that someone or something else is to blame for the situation and that something can be done about it.
Anger often masks other feelings such as sadness, hurt, or fear. When we're in this mode, it's tough to think straight or have a productive conversation with the person we're angry at. If you're looking for ways to manage your anger better, our close friend Julie Riga is back to share her story and insights!
In this episode, Julie gets to the bottom of what anger really means. Plagued by anger for many years, Julie has a lot to say about how she has learned how to manage anger as a powerful catalyst and/or a life-sucking companion.
Julie Riga, daughter of renowned chef to the stars, Ennio Riga, has over 20 years of experience in the Pharma Industry, which has given her a wealth of knowledge in business, communications, training, and executive coaching.
Aside from being a certified coach, trainer, speaker, and author, she is also the host of the Stay on Course podcast, where she explores different topics in leadership, personal development, connection, and faith.

Obsessed With US and Lessons From Masters
May 13, 2022
•25m
After over a year together, the Obsessed team, Julie Lokun, Tia Walden, and Mika Altidor share their insights from lessons learned from expert guests in personal development. Listen to this intimate conversation on how this little podcast has changed so many lives--including ours.
This roller coaster of life, at points, seems unfair. Especially when we are thrust into a traumatic situation.
We have the privilege of talking with amazing experts every day. This privilege is not taken lightly. In fact, we believe it is our duty to be the ambassador for their platforms as they give of their selves tirelessly to mend broken spirits. Our conversations weave in and out of grief, trauma, resilience, toxic families, reactive situations and so much more. We have been educated by the best and today, I share the wisdom imparted to me by these prolific professionals.
QUESTION:
Are you stressed out? Are you reeling from a trauma? Are you in the middle of a life-altering adjustment? If so, this episode is for you. If not, read on because the tools that you learn when life is smooth will be the weapons you have to fight when life gets really rocky.
Lessons From The Masters:One of our lessons learned was about grief. Grief is a lesson these obsessed girls have met in the past year and we believe Heidi Dunstan was put into our lives for a reason.Heidi Dunstan: Grief Advocate and Leader in Loss.
Heidi has taught us a new narrative when talking to someone who is experiencing loss. Loss can look like death, a job loss, a breakup, or even something transitional like a move. Heidi lost her husband, unexpectedly the day before her 40th birthday and is now a warrior in grief awareness. Heidi taught me what matters most is that you are there for your person. Loss is triggering for us, and often we are immobilized and unable to find the right words to comfort those closest to us.
Just being there is often enough.
