Unapologetically Spicy

Roommates , Burnout, and the Broken Dishwasher That Broke Me


Listen Later

In this episode of Unapologetically Spicy, Harley peels back the layers of frustration, burnout, and unspoken labor that come with living in shared spaces — especially as a neurodivergent Black woman. From crusty dishes and crunchy floors to broken promises and broken (metaphorical) dishwashers, Harley explores how chores in adulthood can trigger deep-rooted childhood wounds and reignite old survival patterns.

She breaks down the emotional toll of being “the responsible one,” the people-pleasing habits that are hard as hell to unlearn, and the heartbreak of realizing that grace without accountability will bleed you dry.

If you’ve ever cleaned up messes you didn’t make, stayed silent to “keep the peace,” or felt like a ghost in your own home — this episode is for you.

Plus, Harley shares a life-changing framework called the Accountability Formula by Joe Nucci Therapy that’ll help you protect your peace without losing your mind (or your mop).

Tune in if you’re ready to stop overfunctioning, reclaim your sanctuary, and finally say: “I’m not your mom — clean the damn kitchen.”
