If you have been wanting to start easing your way into low-tox living, or are curious where (or why) to start..this episode is for you.  

In this conversation with low-tox living practitioner and personal trainer, Kayla Rose, we unpack the importance of “clean” beauty, consumer awareness, the “toxic load,” and the challenges of navigating misleading “health-washing” (marketing) in products across home and personal care. 

The discussion emphasizes the importance of reducing chemical exposure (hello, hormone health!), and creating a safe haven at home to recharge and reset your body–all with an accessible, low-stress, and sustainable approach. Think easy swaps, nuanced and balanced living, and a healthy skepticism along the way.

We even touch on the hot button topic of women’s strength-training/heavy lifting, why starting as early as possible has incredible life-long benefits, as well as what women are getting wrong in the process that can hinder their growth.
