    Toxins! And How We Can Take Small Steps Towards Large Impact When It Comes To Our Lifestyle and Influencing Our Future Generation!

    In this episode I talk with Emma Rohmann. Environmental Engineer, Home Detox Expert and mom of 2! Emma has spent over a decade working in the green building field and now helps parents and parents-to-be make healthier choices by providing practical and judgement-free advice, support, and product recommendations. There is a ton of information – and misinformation – out there when it comes to toxins in the products you use every day. This can make it almost impossible to figure out how to create a healthy home without feeling completely overwhelmed.  Emma believes that healthy, green living can be simple and practical and shares tons of tips on how to make it so! See some highlights from her biography below! "Green at Home began while I was on mat leave with my second child. I had been living green in my own home for 15 years, but wanted to find ways of living a greener life on a two-kid budget. When I began to research options, I found that there was a lack of balanced information out there – businesses were saying one thing and environmental groups were saying another. I saw a need for a practical, impartial voice to help cut through the noise and make sense of the research. Green at Home began as a blog – a place where I could consolidate and share balanced information as I researched green living and made changes in my own life. The catalyst for turning this passion project into a business was being recruited by the David Suzuki program to join its ‘Queen of Green’ coaching program. As part of that experience, I helped six families green their homes and reduce their exposure to toxins. The work was so fulfilling and inspiring – I knew I had to find a way to do the same for other families. Since then I’ve led dozens of workshops and helped many clients create greener homes and businesses. I’ve also upped my continuing education game, having successfully completed: Certificate in Environmental Health: An Integrative Approach from the University of Arizona College of Medicine, Tuscon. Microbiome Summit Trainings, put on by the University of Toronto Leslie Dan Department of Pharmacy Autoimmunity and Environmental Toxicants, an online class by Dr. Walter Crinnion through the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine I’ve had the pleasure of sharing my expertise with like-minded organizations, including: Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine as a guest lecturer on environmental health and its impact on reproduction and fertility. Eco Baby Certification Course for doulas with Bebo Mia. EcoParent Magazine Section Editor and contributor. Green Moms Collective contributor. Think Dirty as a Clean Beauty Champion. CertClean as a judge for their 2017 and 2018 Clean Beauty Awards. Wear the Change Movement interviewee alongside industry experts like Adria Vasil. Featured as one of Mamavation’s 50 Best Healthy Mom Blogs in Canada. Big Carrot Lecture Series and Women’s Healthy Environment Network guest speaker. My goal through all that I do is, first and foremost, to provide practical, balanced, relevant information that will help you move the dial and and make healthier choices – and to do it in a friendly and approachable way. I am SO excited to share this conversation with you and hope that you will learn as much as I did! www.instagram.com/emma_greenathome www.greenathome.ca www.ewg.org https://www.thinkdirtyapp.com/ https://davidsuzuki.org/

Professionally, Tamarah has a keen interest in women's health and pelvic health issues; she leverages her professional development and certifications specific to women's health namely, in the treatment of pre/post natal patients, rectus diastasis (a separation of the abdominal wall during pregnancy), pelvic floor rehabilitation, pediatric continence, prolapse, urinary incontinence, pelvic pain issues, post surgical and osteoporotic patients. Tamarah continues to treat diverse sports related injuries to a wide range of clientele as well. Tamarah's approach to treatment is facilitated from her extensive post grad course work. She believes in a holistic whole body approach. She is certified to assess and treat pelvic floor dysfunction (internal examination), obtaining advanced certification in incontinence, prolapse, anorectal dysfunction, pelvic pain, sexual medicine, pediatric continence issues, endometriosis and pudendal neuralgia. Personally, Tamarah delivered all 4 of her children via Caesarean birth and between the 2 of us, we've experienced 7 C-Sections! All of them different and each with perspective to share. We talk about the physical and emotional impact of a surgical birth, the recovery process and what a return to functional movement and exercise looks like. This is is must listen for anyone pregnant, anyone who has experienced 1 or more belly births, anyone looking to expand their knowledge of what a c-section is and entails and for anyone who is planning to deliver via c-section.
