🚨 Season 2 Finale: The Chaos Club 🌀 🚨

The Chaos Club | Spoon Space Season 2 Finale Chaotic energy is real and it can drain your spoons before you even realize what’s happening. In this episode, I’m unpacking how chaotic energy shows up, how it transfers, and most importantly, how to protect your peace when someone else’s storm threatens to take you down with it. We’re talking boundaries, rituals, energy checks, and that golden reminder: other people’s urgency is not your emergency. 🛑✨ This finale ties together everything we’ve been learning in Season 2, from spoons to boundaries to advocacy, and sends us into Season 3 with stronger tools for protecting our energy. 🎧 Listen now, take notes, and remember: chaos may knock, but it doesn’t get to move in.

🏥 Prescription Discrimination 🤒

Let’s get real, racism in healthcare isn’t just a history book lesson 📚. It’s 2025, and Black patients are still being dismissed, ignored, and dying at higher rates than they should. In this episode, we’re unpacking the truth: ⚖️ The roots of medical racism (yes, it started centuries ago… and it hasn’t gone away) 👩🏾‍🍼 The tragic story of Keira Johnson, a Black mother who died after her pleas for help were ignored postpartum 🩹 My own ER experiences of. being stereotyped, dismissed, and denied proper care 🔑 Why advocacy for Black spoonies isn’t optional but mandatory! This episode is heavier than usual. Less spoonie sass, more storytelling + receipts. Because protecting your spoons means naming the systems that are stealing them. And racism? Is one of the biggest spoon thieves of all. ✨ Resources Mentioned: * 📊 CDC: Racial/Ethnic Disparities in Maternal Mortality (2023) * 📝 Hoffman et al., PNAS (2016): Racial bias in pain assessment & treatment * 💔 Charles Johnson’s advocacy for Keira Johnson: ForKiera.org [https://www.forkiera.org/] * 🖤 Black Women’s Health Imperative: bwhi.org [https://bwhi.org/] 🎧 Tap play. Get the education. Sit with the discomfort. Because silence protects the system — but our stories? They expose it. Spill the Spoon – Your space for questions, tea, and tales.
