62. Unleashing anger for change: Dr. Dee Frayne on healing, empowerment, and social impact
In this episode, I welcome a cool-ass human, Dr. Dee Frayne (pronounced fray-knee), to the show!
Dr. Dee Frayne, she/they, is a professional changemaker, disruptive leadership strategist, and performance coach. She loves nothing more than helping feminist leaders, changemakers and social entrepreneurs to lead the fight against social inequality and systemic oppression. Dee wants to help you BE the change so that you can LEAD the change…without the burnout, overwhelm, pressure, and punishment.
The shit we need to talk about this week is the importance of acknowledging and reclaiming anger as a tool for sustainable change.
In our conversation,
Dee emphasizes that anger is a protective emotion often suppressed due to societal conditioning, particularly affecting marginalized groups.
She highlights the physical and emotional toll of suppressing anger, linking it to stress-related health issues and even forming a connection between anger and autoimmune disorders.
Dee advocates for small, intentional steps towards change and self-care practices that nourish the body and mind. And the most important step - doing it in community.
Dee also shares about her Anger Academy, a program aimed at healing anger through community and structured support, and stresses the anti-oppressive nature of self-love and self-care.
