Show Notes
When parenthood feels overwhelming, overstimulating, or just like too much, it may not be anger, it may be resentment in parenthood.
Resentment in parenthood is rarely loud. It is quiet exhaustion. It is unmet needs. It is a loss of agency. It is grief mixed with nervous system overload.
In this episode, we explore:
• What resentment in parenthood really looks like
• Why resentment often equals grief plus unmet needs
• The “boundary translation” exercise
• How to stop self abandonment in early parenthood
• How to regulate before resentment turns into anger
• Small daily actions that rebuild agency
If you are feeling touched out, overstimulated, exhausted, or quietly resentful, this video will help you understand what is happening and how to move forward without guilt.
