Slow Burn: Part 1

What does it actually mean to be slow to anger, and is it even possible? In this episode of the Steady Podcast, Melody opens with the Biblical foundation of this phrase, rooted in Exodus 34:6, where God declares His own nature to Moses while Israel is at their worst. That context changes everything.

From there, Melody unpacks the psychology of anger: what triggers it, how our bodies respond, and why anger is almost never really about the thing that set it off. She shares personal stories from childhood and the turning point that led her toward God, therapy, and healing.

Key takeaway: Anger is amoral: your body just does it. You're not bad for feeling it. The real question is what you do with it, and what's underneath it.

Homework: Journal one recent moment of anger. What triggered it? What was it protecting? Where did you learn to respond that way?
