This week, I’m talking about rage bait, heartbreak, and the question: Who is benefiting from your rage?

I know I’ve been caught up in it plenty of times, but lately, the persistent violations of women and other vulnerable people have left me feeling exhausted and heartbroken. That heartbreak has also reignited a fire in me to do something more directly.

I’ve taught self-defense on and off for over 20 years, and starting in December, I’ll be teaching Women’s Self-Defense seminars again. I’ll also be sharing self-defense techniques and tips on the physical and emotional sides of personal safety with my paid Substack members.

A reminder: the responsibility for preventing assault should never fall on the person being targeted. If something has happened to you, it is never your fault. The blame belongs to the perpetrator. Period.

This episode is a two-part reflection on how we can take a step back, digest our anger, and turn it into something meaningful for the people and communities around us. We can care deeply about what’s happening in the world without letting it pull us away from the work we’re here to do.

My $5/month Substack membership includes Nine Lives Longevity classes, self-defense education, and herbalism content, with more to come. Your support makes it possible for me to keep creating and sharing this work.

Thank you for being here. Please share this episode with anyone who might need it. 💜

In gratitude,

Greta
