I asked who you all wanted to hear on the podcast, and you answered! My sister Laura of Our Oily House is joining me today to talk all about where to start when you are swapping out toxic products in your home. We cover cleaning your home, caring for your hair and skin, and how to fit these projects into a full schedule. Then we answer some of the questions that you all submitted through Instagram. We dive into motherhood, pregnancy, online business, our childhoods, living a natural lifestyle, our differences. We laughed a lot in the episode, and I hope you will enjoy listening in on this chat with my sister!
In this episode, we cover:
- Simple, non-toxic recipes to replace all your household cleaners
- How to find time in your busy life to make natural household products
- The few simple ingredients you can keep in your home to make almost every product you need
- How to use lye in soap making; it’s not as scary as you think!
- What the relationships between our kids look like
- Our theory on why we have both had so many boys in a row
- How you can have time to yourself even with a big family
- Recognizing and appreciating the differences in kids’ personalities
- Making sure you aren’t working 24/7 when you run an online business
