Author and counselor KC Davis, LPC joins Kristie and Felicia to break down the shame often associated with a messy home. They unpack the life-changing mindset of moral neutrality, meaning that your ability to do laundry is not a reflection of your character. KC supports shifting away from society’s standards of "tidiness" to a sustainable approach that prioritizes your mental health.

Some takeaways:

• Why struggling with dishes doesn't make you a "bad" person

• How to look at house chores as a way to make your space livable instead of a never-ending to-do list.

• Using hacks like larger trash cans or paper plates to manage your home during difficult mental health seasons.

• Why self-compassion is better motivation than guilt when you're feeling overwhelmed.
