Callee began hosting this free podcast in August 2018, as well as speaking at events and teaching educational workshops across the country, as part of her life mission to arm you with the knowledge & tools you need to spark positive change in your community. In December 2019, she opened The Hippie Haven in Rapid City, South Dakota - a zero waste retail store & community space with a little free library - the first of its kind in the state. She’ll be opening a second Hippie Haven in Salem, Oregon in Feb 2021.

    Natural Baby Wipes with Dr. Durka & Suthan Naganayagam

    My guests today are Dr. Durka and Suthan Naganayagam. They created Niki's Natural Wipes after experiencing diaper rashes and irritations with their first son, Niki. With backgrounds in healthcare science and technology, they spent many long nights researching organic substances that might be able to moisturize, soothe, and prevent bacterial infections from effecting their son. After months of testing, they stumbled on a unique combination of organic ingredients that when applied to baby wipes led to Niki never experiencing another diaper rash.

    Niki's was created out of the desperation of two parents, wanting to alleviate the pain that their newborn infant was suffering from with a natural solution. Niki's Natural Wipes are the world's only natural baby wipes infused with organic coconut oil and menuca honey essence. The first of their kind baby wipes, which have earned one of the highest certifications from the environmental working group are now available for the first time in the U.S. Though created to help parents battling endless skin irritation. Niki's Natural Wipes are also an imperative solution for anyone committed to eliminating toxins from babies' lives.
