Resentment isn’t the hot kind of anger that flares and fades. It’s the quiet kind that builds in the background, often after you’ve asked for something over and over, and nothing changes. Dr. Tracy reframes resentment as grief, grief for unmet needs, lost hope, invisibility, and the version of your relationship you thought you were coming home to.She walks through how resentment typically forms in stages: unmet need, repeated pattern, scorekeeping, shutdown, and finally silence. Then she offers a path forward that starts with naming the grief (instead of blaming), asking clearly for what you need in the present, and getting honest about the patterns that keep the cycle going. Resentment isn’t always the end, but it is a signal that something needs to change, and that honesty is the doorway back to agency and connection.LINKS FROM EPISODE:Learn to move past resentment.
