Thank goodness for Heidi!

I binged all Lifelong episodes in a week because Heidi’s passion for non-toxic living is infectious. I knew I was doing okay when it comes to creating a non-toxic lifestyle, but Heidi is helping me take it to the next level. I wish everyone knew about the dangers of toxins in our environment and homes, but I am hopeful that voices like Heidi’s will shake the system and create change for good. Keep it up, Heidi!
