About this listen

In this heartfelt episode of Behind the 90 with Nneka, we sit down with Angie, a courageous woman who opens up about her childhood living in a hoarded home — and the emotional toll it took on her sense of safety, identity, and love.

Through an honest and deeply moving conversation, Angie shares what it was like to grow up surrounded by chaos, the complicated relationship with her mother, and the healing journey she’s embraced as an adult.

We explore themes of trauma, forgiveness, emotional boundaries, and how one can rebuild peace after years of living in survival mode.

If you’ve ever struggled with a parent’s mental health, carried the weight of a painful childhood, or are working to create emotional order out of internal clutter — this episode is for you.
