Is "anger management" missing the point? In this provocative episode, therapist Anita Akers joins Christopher and Deb to flip conventional wisdom on its head. The conversation ignites when Deb declares anger management "stupid," leading to a fascinating exploration of how we've misunderstood this universal emotion.

Whether you're navigating a four-year-old's tantrums or managing your own reactions, this conversation offers a liberating truth: it's not about managing emotions—it's about understanding them.
