    Rage and Love (with Resham Mantri, Carvell Wallace & Homero Radway)

    Rage and Love (with Resham Mantri, Carvell Wallace & Homero Radway)

    Is your child apoplectic, overcome with rage about the state of the world?  How do they express that rage?  How does that rage trigger you?  
     
    Noleca is joined by loved ones, Resham Mantri, Carvell Wallace & Homero Radway to talk about their amazing apoplectic children.  We often experience our children’s expression of rage as chaos due to our programming and traumas.  Chaos is the property of a complex system whose behavior is so unpredictable as to appear random, owing to great sensitivity to small changes in conditions.   In this episode of Raising Rebels, we hear stories of chaos, rage and love.
    Please be gentle with yourself as you listen.

A Gem

I got wind of this podcast from the Black Millennial Marriage podcast. Since then i have been hooked and binge listening.

Pros-
-The sounds of the hosts are amazing. They have a voice that was meant to be enjoyed.
- The structure of the show makes it a clear and easy listen.
-I love hearing the children’s opinions and how they are seemlessly added into the show.
- The host’s guest choices compliment the conversations so well.
- the conversation are narrated with such ease it is truly a skill.
The information are timeless and raise questions for myself that I haven't considered.
I’ve had to look at myself and self assess.
No cons as of yet from this child having lady.
Thank you for just amazing work and honesty.

In LOVE

I am in LOVE with this podcast. I never thought I’d find a podcast that spoke to my heart and aligned with my desire to raise FREE children. I’m thankful I found this podcast and right on time at that! My daughter is 8 months and I’m grateful I have this podcast as a resource, comfort, and friend. I binged the first season and I’m happy I finished right in time for the second. Noleca is a gift and so are her babies and her husband and it’s a blessing to have access to them through the pod and to hear their thoughts in the midst of the episodes. Thank YOU. Please don’t stop. At least until my daughter turns 18 😭. 💜💜💜 #foreverlistener
