Episode Description from the Publisher

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.For sponsorships, please reach out to wytt@besttherapists.comJoin our Substack communityFollow WYTT on InstagramFollow Felicia on InstagramUse our promo code "WYTT" for up to 20% Off at CozyEarth.comConnect with KCFollow KC on Instagram, Facebook and TikTokRead KC’s books: How to Keep House While Drowning and Who Deserves Your Love*Hosts: Kristie Plantinga and Felicia Keller Boyle*Watch full episodes on YouTube: What Your Therapist Thinks*Brought to you by BestTherapists.com*Produced by PodVision.If you found this episode helpful, please subscribe, rate, and leave a review, or share it with a friend who might need it!This podcast is for entertainment purposes only and is not a substitute for professional mental health care.
