    How to Compost Your Underwear with Stacy Grace

    How to Compost Your Underwear with Stacy Grace

    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 can’t donate or resell.
    Today’s 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.

    The Dirty Truth About Fragrance With Ashlee Posner

    The Dirty Truth About Fragrance With Ashlee Posner

    When you see Fragrance on a label, it’s not just one thing, it’s up to potentially 300 ingredients made into a formulation that is protected as a trade secret, so companies don’t have to tell you what is in it. This is referred to as the Fragrance Loophole. 
    What I didn’t 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 again…the 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.
