Did you know that 85% of textiles today are made from plastic fibers like spandex, nylon, elastane, especially underwear, and a whopping 11M pounds of under apparel and underwear go into landfills and incinerators every day in the USA. Why is that? Because underwear is the only apparel category we canât donate or resell.
Todayâs guest saw that problem and decided to do something about it. Stacy Grace is the founder of KENT, an innovative company at the forefront of organic underwear and loungewear. Stacy's passion for sustainability and her commitment to making safer, more sustainable choices for consumers have led her to create a brand that challenges the norms of the fashion industry. Today, we'll explore how KENT is making a difference with its compostable, organic cotton products and what you can do as a consumer to make safer and more sustainable apparel choices, especially in the underwear you choose.

When you see Fragrance on a label, itâs not just one thing, itâs up to potentially 300 ingredients made into a formulation that is protected as a trade secret, so companies donât have to tell you what is in it. This is referred to as the Fragrance Loophole.
What I didnât know until recently is that not only are these ingredients being hidden from consumers, but they are also being hidden from brands selling you the products you use every single day. That means you can ask a company what is in their fragrance, and because it was formulated by a fragrance house as intellectual property, that brand also does not know what is in their fragrance. Let me state that againâŠthe company does not have transparency to what ingredients are going into their products.
My guest today is Ashlee Posner. After being denied safety information on the perfume ingredients in her products, Ashlee didn't just settle; she decided to revolutionize the industry from within. She founded State of Change, a clean and transparent fragrance company, and Lucent Labs, aiming to help other brands develop fragrances that pass the test for ingredient-conscious consumers.
In this episode, you will hear how Ashlee is paving the path towards greater transparency, why it matters, and how you can become a more discerning consumer in the ever-evolving landscape of beauty and fragrances.

1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer, yet 90% of cases are not linked solely to genetics.
Let me say that again, 90% of cases are not linked solely to genetics, so if itâs not our genes, what is it? Itâs our environment and lifestyle choice. Many of these environmental and lifestyle exposures are avoidable and for the past 30 years, Breast Cancer Prevention Partners has been working to educate people about how to reduce these exposures and their advocating for more health-protective laws in order to prevent them.
Today, I am talking with Suzanne Price from BCPP. Suzanne has spent years studying the impact of toxic chemicals on our bodies, and as a mother of two young girls, she is especially passionate about educating people on this very important issue with the ultimate goal of preventing this horrible disease.
You will walk away from this episode empowered with small ways that you can protect yourself and your family from harmful chemicals that are linked to breast cancer and all sorts of other diseases. And no guilt or shame in this podcast. Weâre just two passionate moms trying to educate for a safer future for all.

Today, I am republishing an episode from 2022 when the podcast was called This or Something Better. I am re-sharing this conversation with Branch Basics co-founder Allison Evans because it is one of my most listened-to episodes and because Allisonâs story is truly transformational.
It is easy to question whether the changes we make to reduce our exposure to toxic chemicals actually make an impact on our bodies and our health. Allisonâs story will show you without question that they do.
In her early 20s, Allison relied on painkillers, muscle relaxers, sleeping pills, and antidepressants just to get through the day. Despite seeing countless doctors, she had lost all hope of feeling better. It wasnât until she spent the summer living with her aunt Marilee, eliminating toxins from life, that Allison was able to go off all of her medications, to reverse her PCOS and slowly begin to heal her body. That summer not only changed Allisonâs health, but it was also the starting point of her company, Branch Basics. Her story truly shows how tossing the toxins can make a profound impact on your health and your life.

My goal is not to be a fearmonger, but todayâs topic is not to be taken lightly. The use of glyphosate on our crops and in our environment is a public health emergency. Glyphosate, the active chemical in the weedkiller product Roundup, is the most widely used pesticide on the planet. Glyphosate is having a devastating impact on our health. It is linked to many serious health conditions, including cancer, liver disease, and infertility. Yet itâs used by farmers, landscapers, in schools and parks and even by your neighbors.
Todayâs guest Kelly Ryerson, is here to help us understand glyphosate and its uses, the impact it is having on human and planetary health, and most importantly, she will provide us with easy ways to reduce our exposure to this incredibly harmful chemical.

Itâs quite likely that your doctor has never mentioned Endocrine Disrupting chemicals, but that doesnât mean they arenât impacting your health. Each and every one of us, albeit often invisibly: is impacted by endocrine-disrupting chemicals every single day. They are in our food, our personal care and cleaning products, and in so many other aspects of our daily life.
For many years the research focused only on early-life exposures, but now endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are understood to contribute substantially to chronic disease in adulthood, especially metabolic, cardiovascular, and reproductive consequences as well as endocrine cancers.
My guest today is Dr. Leo Trasande, With his extensive background as a medical doctor, researcher, health policy expert, and author, Dr. Trasande is committed to providing us with the tools and knowledge necessary to reduce our exposure to these chemicals. Our conversation today goes beyond merely spotlighting the issue; it's about providing actionable solutions and most importantly, fostering optimism for a safer and healthier future.

Have you ever found yourself standing amidst the sunscreen options, gazing at shelves brimming with choices, and pondering, "Which sunscreen is the right choice for me? What sets apart physical zinc sunscreen from chemical sunscreen, and are the chemicals truly detrimental to my health? Do they pose a threat to coral reefs?"
While it's crucial to wear sunscreen for skin cancer prevention, the challenge lies in selecting a sunscreen that not only offers confidence in safety but also provides effective sun protection.
Todayâs guest, Christina Ross, is going to help us answer these questions and so much more. Christina is a senior scientist with Credo Beauty who has spent much of her career looking at the safety and regulatory landscape of consumer products, including sunscreens.
Christina will guide us through understanding the disparities between physical and chemical sunscreens. She'll address safety concerns associated with chemical sunscreens and help us tackle the essential question: How do we choose a sunscreen that prioritizes safety?

There are thousands of chemicals used in personal care products. These chemicals are in lotion, deodorant, toothpaste, skincare and makeup, and the majority have never been tested for human health and safety. No matter your gender or age, you are being exposed to these chemicals and they could be having a negative impact on your health. In the US there is no requirement for pre-market testing of ingredients to determine their safety and very little government regulation to protect us as consumers.
So, how do you know who to trust, and how can you ensure you are choosing safer products? That is what you will learn in todayâs episode. My guests are Mia Davis and Christina Ross, two experts with a passion for safer ingredients and greater regulation in the beauty industry. Mia is a clean beauty pioneer who created and implemented some of the leading standards in the industry, including The Credo Clean Standard and Beautycounterâs Never List. Christina is Senior Scientist at Credo Beauty where she is responsible for product and ingredient safety.
Mia and Christina are here to help us understand the landscape of chemicals, lack of safety data and regulation in the beauty industry, and the most valuable thing you will walk away with from todayâs episode is what you can do to make safer choices for you and your family.

Sometimes you can do all the things to protect your health; sleeping well, exercising, eating a health diet using safer products, and you still get sick, you still get cancer. That is the story of todayâs guest, Eliza Caplan. While cancer is a part of Elizaâs story, it is not what defines her.
Eliza is a passionate educator and advocate for clean living. She has spent the majority of her adult life making choices that are not only healthier for her but also for the health of animals and the planet. In June of this year, Eliza was diagnosed with a rare form of brain cancer, and in this episode she is sharing her journey.
Whether you're at a crossroads in your own health journey, supporting a loved one through cancer or another disease, or even someone who is questioning the importance of making safer choices altogether, this conversation will inspire you to believe that these small choices and actions do in fact matter. That you do have control of your life and your health, even when you think you donât.
About Eliza
From a young age, Eliza Caplan was drawn to nature and her passion for animals. She connected with the most vulnerable and ones who couldnât speak out for themselves. After having children, she stayed home to care for them but continued her work for people, animals and the planet through different actions. As she learned more about health and planet, she transitioned her family to a more plant-based diet and even vegan for a period of time. In 2016, she went back to work. In order for her to spend time on it, it had to have a great mission. After being introduced to Beautycounter through a friend she joined the mission to help share things she hadnât previously known. Her business and social action work grew. In 2021, she and her husband moved their family of 5 from Chicago, where they had always lived, to Scottsdale AZ. They were in search of warmer weather, something new, and having the mountains a bit closer to them. In 2023, she was shocked to learn from an MRI that she had a brain tumor. Since then she has undergone a craniotomy with tumor resection, radiation and chemotherapy. In her journey, she has looked deeper into the cause and ways to heal more holistically than just the standard of care. She enjoys sharing what she has learned along the way in the effort to change someone elseâs life for the better.
