Spoon Space is where hot takes meet heating pads. I’m Sunny Dee—RN, BSN, 20-year spoonie, and your favorite unlicensed therapist (with a license in nursing, don’t get cute). We talk guts, grief, giggles, and glow-ups—all in one breath, if we have one. This space is for the soft, the spicy, the spoon-deprived, and the soul-full. I don’t gatekeep, I guide. I don’t whisper through pain, I sing through it—with a lil’ cuss here and there. If you’ve only got one spoon left, BABY, spend it here.Bring your meds and your mess.

    🚨 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🖤 Black Women’s Health Imperative: 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.

    ✨PROTECT ***YOUR*** POUR 🥹

    ✨ Episode 8 – Protect Your Pour ✨ You can’t pour from an empty spoon — period. 🥄✨ In this episode, we’re getting real about what it actually costs to give when you’re already running low. From the hidden drain of overexplaining your illness, to the guilt that comes with saying no, to learning how to only give from the overflow….. this is your reminder that protecting your spoons is protecting your peace. We’re talking boundaries, energy checks, mental spoon math, and why “no” is a complete sentence. Plus, a Mini Spoon Break with a stat that’ll make you realize why chronic illness feels like a full-time job. 🕒 Think of this one as your permission slip to stop apologizing for resting, start saving your spoons, and let your overflow be the only thing people get access to. 🌸 Because survival isn’t selfish. It’s strategy. Spill the Spoon – Your space for questions, tea, and tales. Support the show With Extra Spoons, Sunny Dee, RN BSN

    FLAKE HAPPENS

    ✨ Episode 4: Spoons, Friends & Flaky Plans ✨ Friendship hits different when you live with a chronic illness. From canceled plans to “nap before the nap” fatigue, sometimes being a good friend looks like knowing when to stay in and when to show up. In this episode, I’m getting real about the guilt era (hi, flaky queen 👋), the friends who actually get it, and why managing your spoons matters more than managing people’s expectations. Oh — and this is the first episode with a Mini Spoon Break 🥄 … trust me, you’re gonna love it. Spill the Spoon – Your space for questions, tea, and tales.

    RECOVERY: THE REAL HORROR STORY (RE-UPLOAD)

    RE-UPLOAD FOR APPLE MUSIC 💜 After diagnosis, things were supposed to get better… right? Instead, I faced failed scopes, rushed surgery, a body I barely recognized, and a system that dismissed my pain. This episode is about what happened after the diagnosis — the pain no one planned for, the wound that wouldn’t heal, and the recovery that felt more like a battleground than a rest stop. But it’s also about how I found my voice — with the help of two parents who never stopped showing up. This is how I became an advocate. First with their strength beside me… and eventually, with my own. 🎧 New episodes every Wednesday. 🧡 Don’t forget to save a scoop for yourself.

    (Re)MISSION POSSIBLE

    🎙 Long episode alert! This one runs a little longer than usual — but it’s the big finale of my Crohn’s story, so I had to give it the space it deserved. From here on out, most episodes will be short and sweet, around 15 minutes or so — but today… we’re going out with a bang. In Remission Possible, I’m taking you from begging for the bag, to living with a loop ileostomy during a pandemic, to finding unexpected healing in Costa Rica — and finally hearing the words I’d been waiting 20 years for: “You’re in remission.” It’s raw, real, and packed with tips I wish I’d had — so maybe YOUR ROAD isn’t as hard. .

  11. The Nightmare on Spoon Street

    The Nightmare on Spoon Street

    Before the colonoscopies, before the surgeries, before the diagnosis — there were warning signs. Pain that didn’t make sense. Symptoms no one could explain. And a little Black kid who knew something was wrong… even when nobody believed her. In this debut episode, Sunny Dee, RN, BSN, and 20-year spoonie, takes us all the way back to the beginning — the childhood joint pain, the gaslighting, the dismissed symptoms, and the moment everything changed. This one’s for every spoonie who’s ever been told “it’s just in your head.” Spoiler alert: it wasn’t. So grab your heating pad, sip something warm, and settle in. My name is Sunny Dee, and this… is Spoon Space. Spill the Spoon – Your space for questions, tea, and tales. Support the show With Extra Spoons, Sunny Dee, RN BSN
