About me

Introduction	A 30-something mom, wife, aunt, daughter and friend on a journey of discovery hoping to provoke change through the reduction of harmful chemicals we get through means thought to be healthy.
Interests	I began this journey after discovering some down-right scary things early on in motherhood. I have sometimes joked with friends about being a "crazy mom". The truth is, I'm not crazy. I'm educated and I've taken the time to research. I want change. Five years ago I had my first, very precious child. Cue the glorious music. Bring on the flowers. Check out my bundle of pure joy. Bring in the nurse who is ready to give my newborn a Hep B shot. What? Don't you get Hep B from sex & drugs, as in needles? He's not at risk. The night after having him, my newborn started screaming his head off. This screaming lasted for the next 5 months until we finally figured out he had food allergies. He was technically “hyper-sensitive” vs. truly allergic and he eventually outgrew it all. We are lucky. Between the vaccines that did’t appear necessary and the harmful ingredients I’ve noticed in our food, I began questioning things. I'm not anti-vaccine or anti-food. I am about the safety of the things we are putting into our kids. And I want change.
