I’ve never kept Tylenol in our home. That was an early decision for me, long before Honey was born, but it wasn’t until I went back to the pharmacology that I understood the full picture of why, and what I found surprised even me.

The biochemistry of what this drug does to the antioxidant system your child depends on most, especially when they’re already sick, is alarming!

Save this. Share it with a mama in your life who wants the full picture, not just the label.

Not medical advice, just a nerd raising her daughter with informed consent and a whole lot of questions.

We’ve never owned a microwave, and honestly, it’s not something we even think about anymore.

I studied molecular biology and genetics at university. I spent years reading peer-reviewed research on electromagnetic radiation, on how non-ionizing energy interacts with living tissue, on what happens at the cellular level when food is heated this way.

What I found wasn’t dramatic enough to panic about, but it was consistent enough to make a permanent decision for our home.

Nobody tells you that ‘microwave-safe’ on a plastic container has nothing to do with what’s leaching into your food. Nobody tells you that the FDA’s safety thresholds for microwave leakage are based on thermal injury to skin - not on what chronic low-level exposure does to a developing nervous system. And nobody tells you that warming breast milk in a microwave - even gently - can strip the very antibodies your body made to protect your baby.

Daniel and I made this decision long before Honey was born, but now that she’s eating meals I warm on the stovetop in the same cast iron and stainless steel I use for everything else, I’m grateful past-us made the call.

If this post made you rethink something you never questioned before, that’s the whole point of what I do here. Follow along for information you deserve to have.

My knowledge about toxins and health has grown a lot over the years - but I’ve become LESS intense, not more.

Here’s the thing no one tells you:

Your body is brilliantly designed to detox, heal, and protect itself. It’s not as fragile as the wellness industry wants you to believe.

Yes, reduce the load where it’s easy.

No, don’t let fear run your motherhood.

The research is clear: chronic stress is one of the most inflammatory things we can expose ourselves to.

So if your “healthy lifestyle” is making you anxious, guilty, and overwhelmed… it’s not actually healthy.

Peace > panic. Always.

I spent 15 years and a molecular biology + genetics degree figuring this out so you don’t have to. I put it all into Low-Tox Holistix: The Whole-Home Detox Blueprint - the 3-Question Filter that replaces every late-night ingredient Google search, a priority system that tells you what matters (and what doesn’t), and room-by-room swaps at every budget. Comment “LOWTOX” and I’ll send you the link (make sure you’re following me first or my DM won’t reach your inbox).

Slick trick for better sleep: 👇

I’ve been doing this for years and it’s one of the simplest changes I made for my sleep quality.

Most people think Night Shift mode is enough. It’s not. Night Shift only reduces a fraction of the blue light your screen puts out. Your brain is still getting the signal that it’s daytime, and your melatonin is still being suppressed.

This built-in iPhone setting turns your entire screen red - which is the one color that doesn’t interfere with your circadian rhythm. It’s the same reason astronomers use red lights at night. Red wavelengths are too long to trigger the photoreceptors that suppress melatonin.

The best part is you can set it up as a triple-click shortcut so it takes literally one second to toggle on at sunset and off in the morning.

Fair warning though - people WILL ask you about it. We were once flying with way too much carry-on luggage and I was silently praying they wouldn’t make us check any of it because our connecting flights were super tight. When I pulled up our boarding passes, the gate agent got so distracted by my red screen she completely forgot about our bags. 😂 So apparently it also doubles as a diversion tactic at the airport.

🚨 Your fave snacks could be as addictive as booze and smokes. 🚨

Don’t just take my word for it, science says so!

Can’t quit the chips and ice cream? You’re not alone, the struggle is REAL. Why? ‘Cause junk food lights up your brain just like addictive stuff.

Choose kale over cookies - your body and mind will thank you. 💚🌿

Guess what? The EU just banned the sale of loose plastic glitter! 🚫✨

It’s all part of their big plan to slash microplastic pollution by 30% by 2030. And soon, they’ll be broadening the ban to include cosmetics, detergents, and some toys too. Oh, and they’re also stepping up their game to stop those tiny plastic pellets from making a mess of our planet. 🌏

It’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month aka Pinktober, a month that challenges the breast cancer community. Inspired by ’s enlightening content last year, I made a decision not to blindly support, but to be an informed consumer. I looked up Susan G. Komen’s 2022 Financial Statements (readily available on their website), which revealed less than 16% of their spend went to cancer research. Shockingly, a mere 0.03% and 0.02% of their 2021 spend went to health screening and treatment services, respectively.

But let’s talk . Defined by , a pinkwasher is a company or organization that claims to care about breast cancer by promoting a pink ribbon product, but at the same time produced, manufacture and/or sells products containing chemicals that are linked to the disease. As October unfolds, I urge you to . Demand transparency, research products, and prioritize companies that don’t just capitalize on the pink wave.

When checking this year’s Pink Ribbon products, don’t be fooled by toxic ingredients. Did you know environmental and lifestyle factors cause 90-95% of breast cancer cases? Let’s pivot October to Breast Cancer Prevention Month.

If you’re a breast cancer survivor finding October challenging, your feelings are valid. This month, many survivors have shared their varied emotions about the ubiquitous pink. For those looking to proactively reduce breast cancer risk, consider focusing on nutrition and lifestyle changes that empower daily life as well as your breast health.

If you want to genuinely impact breast cancer patients in your life, listen more and talk less. As you listen you’ll find they need practical help. Directly hand them cash. Help them with groceries, bills, and the daily essentials. For many, treatment costs are financially devastating. Choose to make a tangible difference.

As we stand firm against pinkwashing, remember: breast cancer isn’t a marketing gimmick. Let’s be conscious and informed. If this resonates, drop a ❤️ below.

Did you know it’s Sober October? Crazy to think I’m at 5640 days (that’s nearly 15 and a half years!) without a drop.

Back in college, I’d go out and binge-drink a few times a week, which would totally mess up my studying and training. One morning, I just woke up and thought, “I’m done with this.” So here I am, 5640 days later, feeling grateful, growing, and with zero regrets. 🎉
