119: Friendship and anger, with Bronwyn Schweigerdt

Friendshipable

From Project BFF HQ, Terri and Manya riff on dealing with emotions like anger in friendship, with psychotherapist and anger expert Bronwyn Schweigerdt.
We talk about the importance of recognizing when one is feeling anger--you have to validate it, name it to tame it. We went into detail about how anger is a secondary emotion, there is always another emotion underneath it. And how we may need to heal our relationship with anger because we judge it and feel that it is bad to feel anger, when it is an emotion and is neither good nor bad. It is like a light on the dashboard telling us that something is wrong.
Bronwyn Schweigerdt is a marriage and family therapist and the host of the podcast Angry At The Right Things, which is conversations on how to channel our anger in a healthy way.

Thank you for listening.
After much reflection, we have made the difficult decision to shut down Project BFF and the podcast. Our last podcast episode aired on August 23, 2024. We are leaving the podcast live on Buzzsprout through the end of 2024.
We are proud of this podcast and honored to have hosted such amazing and engaging guests.
Our hope is that Project BFF and Friendshipable have inspired you to form new friendships, strengthen existing ones, and encourage others to do the same
Thank you for being a part of our story. The two of us have truly deepened our friendship during this time, and we look forward to new and memorable adventures together in and around New England, which serves as the adopted home for both of us.
With gratitude and friendship,
Manya and Terri
