Show Notes
I have the perfect person to answer a question about “trauma cleaning” as a result of being raised by a parent who was emotionally and verbally abusive about keeping a clean house. This question came from Maria, a TikTok follower, and I’m jumping into this topic in today’s episode with my guest, Amanda Dodson. Join us!
Show Highlights:
- Why this is a common feeling for many people when they sense barriers around care tasks
- A good first step: Try to separate the behavioral home care task from the interpersonal problem with the parent
- Why you have to decide how YOU want your home to be for your own comfort and safety–not how your parent would want it to be
- Why it’s important to have compassion for yourself and awareness of what you need in your space to function well
- How to identify what you need from your space and use a triage approach to get there
- How to have your environment and emotions “meet” at a halfway point
- How to take small steps toward organizing that work for you and your family
