Are you tired of guessing what’s “clean,” and ready for simple swaps that actually help your family feel better?

I sat down with my friend Shelly Jefferis, wellness educator and host of Words of Wellness, to talk about self-care without guilt, reading labels with confidence, and building a faith-first, family-first lifestyle that lasts. Shelly shares why she founded Moms Who Flourish, how her parents’ health journeys shaped her mission, and the non-toxic basics every busy mom can start today. If you’ve wanted more energy, clarity, and peace in your home, this episode gives you the mindset and the first steps to get there.

✔️ The one practice that makes self-care feel essential, not selfish, and how it fuels patience, presence, and energy for your family.

✔️ Label-reading 101: the common additives Shelly skips instantly and the easy way to build your own “no” list.

✔️ Non-toxic starter moves for food, cleaning, and skincare, plus how to keep it sustainable with faith-aligned motivation.

I believe moms deserve to feel vibrant, live on purpose, and model a high-frequency life for their families. If you’re ready to shift the thought, shift the life, this conversation is your on-ramp. Subscribe, press play, and let’s Rise2Shine together.
