    Key Takeaways:

    -Small changes like pausing and using calm language (“That hurt”) can radically improve communication and connection

    -Many people grew up in angry households and inherited poor emotional tools — but you can learn better ones

    -Real progress doesn’t happen overnight. It’s gradual, honest, and deeply worth it.

    -When someone says, “I have my best friend back,” that’s the real power of anger management

  • 151 - The Hidden Link Between Alcohol and Anger
    Sep 20 2025

    For more information on how to control your anger, visit angersecrets.com.

    Have you ever poured a drink to unwind, only to find yourself angrier than before? In this eye-opening episode, anger expert Alastair Duhs explores the often misunderstood connection between alcohol and anger.

    Whether you're a casual drinker or someone who struggles with outbursts after a night out, this episode offers clarity, compassion, and a practical path forward.

    Key Takeaways:

    -Alcohol lowers your inhibitions and impairs judgment, making you more likely to lash out in anger

    -If you already have unresolved anger, alcohol can act like gasoline on a fire — intensifying aggression and conflict

    -Drinking doesn’t cause abusive behavior, but it does magnify emotions that are already beneath the surface.

    Recognising your personal limits and planning ahead can help prevent alcohol-fueled arguments

    -If drinking regularly leads to regret or outbursts, it may be time to reconsider its role in your life.

    -True change comes from looking inward — at the beliefs, habits and triggers that drive your anger — not just cutting back on alcohol.
