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.

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.

What if I told you your deodorant stinks? And I don’t mean the way it smells. I’m talking about the ingredients in it, and what those ingredients may be doing to your health. Pretty much everyone wears deodorant or antiperspirant, but have you ever paused to wonder what exactly you are putting on your body every time you apply these products? 
In this episode I will break down the difference between deodorant and antiperspirant, talk about the ingredients you should be avoiding and the harmful impact they could be having on your health. As always, I’m not just going to tell you what not to use without providing you a safer solution. This episode will give you the knowledge to choose a safer alternative, and I'll Guide you through the steps to transition from an antiperspirant to a deodorant and show you how to navigate this detox process in a quick, easy and stink-free way!

Have you ever stopped to think about what's in your laundry detergent and how those ingredients could be impacting your health and that of the planet, or have you ever thought about how changing your wash from warm to cold might make your clothes last longer and be better for the environment? These are just a couple of the questions we'll explore in today’s episode as we uncover simple yet powerful strategies for making your laundry room safer and more sustainable. I’m also sharing a story about how I recently discovered an ingredient in my laundry detergent that I really wish wasn’t there, and what my next steps are in making a change to something safer.

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 it’s not our genes, what is it? It’s 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. We’re just two passionate moms trying to educate for a safer future for all.
