The year 2025 felt like it flew by, but when I look back at everything I shared with you, I’m genuinely proud of the ground we gained together. For me, the year was all about helping you move past the overwhelm and step into confident action.
If you’re like most of the women I work with—juggling a family, trying to make healthier choices, and feeling like there’s never enough time to research every single product or material—I just want you to know: you’re doing amazing. And I hope this year helped you feel more confident about the changes you’re making in your home.
As a building biology practitioner and your healthy home expert, I want you to feel totally supported and understood. Let me recap the most impactful, science-backed topics I covered this year to help you maintain that confidence going into the new year.
The One Thing I Hope You Remember from 2025
If there’s one lesson I really leaned into this year, it’s this: imperfect action beats no action every single time.
I know how easy it is to get stuck in research mode. You want to do everything right, and suddenly you’re three hours deep in a Reddit thread about the safest cutting boards at 11 PM. (Been there, friend. I get it.)
But this year, I focused on helping you take those small, doable steps that actually add up to big changes in your health. Because here’s the truth—you don’t have to gut your entire house or build from scratch to create a home that supports your wellness.
We started with the basics:
Understanding What You’re Up Against: We looked at the main toxin categories in your home and figured out where your biggest risks are—those healthy home hotspots that deserve your attention first.
Connecting the Dots to Your Health: We dove into how a low-toxin home actually supports your body. Things like how your indoor air quality affects your gut health (wild, right?) and how reducing environmental stressors helps calm your nervous system.
Tackling the Invisible Stuff: We broke down those confusing topics like VOCs and TACs, figured out what’s actually going on with EMF radiation, and talked about managing radon levels. Because once you understand the science, it’s so much easier to know what to do about it.
Walking Through Your Home Together: Room by Room
This year, we literally walked through almost every room in your house, focusing on the swaps and changes that give you the biggest health benefits without making you feel overwhelmed.
Your Kitchen—Where So Much Happens
I spent a lot of time here because, let’s be real, this is where you and your family spend so much of your day. And it’s a major source of exposure to toxins.
We covered everyday items like finding the best non-toxic cutting boards and which tea kettles won’t add metals or chemicals to your morning routine.
For the bigger projects, we talked about choosing a non-toxic kitchen sink and I shared some ideas for updating your kitchen in ways that keep your indoor air quality top of mind.
And because I know you love the practical stuff, we even covered simple things like how to store your bulk pantry staples in healthier containers and set your table without toxins sneaking in. Plus I dove into non toxic lunch boxes and storage solutions.
Your Bedroom—Your Sanctuary
You spend about a third of your life sleeping, so making your bedroom a low-toxin space is honestly one of the smartest moves you can make.
I gave you my essential guide to finding a non-toxic mattress that’s actually safe and comfortable. We created a plan for turning your bedroom into a true sleep sanctuary.
And for your little ones, we even covered healthy kids’ room ideas.
Bathroom Spaces that Are Healthy
For renovations, I shared healthy bathroom ideas and specific bathroom remodel ideas for a truly non-toxic space. I even shared with you the best house plants to add to control your humidity levels.
The Big Purchases That Deserve Your Attention
When you’re spending serious money on furniture or flooring, you deserve clear, science-based information to help you choose wisely.
Furniture & Decor: I reviewed the best non-toxic couch options and explored eco-friendly furniture choices throughout your home. We talked about decorating without toxins and what to actually look for in non-toxic candles (because the marketing can be so confusing).
Materials: If you’re planning to change your flooring, I put together a non-toxic carpet comparison and reviewed the latest in non-toxic paint options.
Projects: Whether you’re planning a major renovation or just focused improvements, I shared guidance on everything from big overhauls to specific home improvements for better indoor air quality.
Daily Habits That Make the Biggest Difference
Here’s something I love about healthy home living: the most affordable and consistent way to reduce toxins is through your daily habits. This year, I focused on simple, repeatable actions you can build into your routine.
Air & Water: I showed you how to use indoor air quality check tools, figure out the best humidity level for your home, and I shared my honest air purifier reviews. We also tackled the issue of chlorine in your drinking water.
Simple Living: I gave you tons of ways to make changes without expensive projects—healthy house tips that don’t require renovating, creating a toxin-free daily routine, and simple swaps to create the healthiest laundry room.
Beyond Your Four Walls: We even looked outside, talking about natural lawn care, dealing with golf course toxins if you live near one, and tips for keeping things low-tox when you travel.
What's Next for You in 2026?
I really hope this year-end look back gives you a boost of confidence. You’ve put in the work to learn the science, and now you’re ready to keep moving forward.
I know that seeing all these topics listed out can sometimes feel like a lot. That’s completely normal, and I want you to know—I’m here to make this simpler for you, not harder.
My goal for the coming year is to keep giving you the most accessible, science-based information so you can feel good knowing you’re creating the healthiest space possible for your family.
If you’re ready to take everything we covered this year and turn it into a clear, actionable plan for 2026, I’ve got something for you. Since enrollment for my Healthy Home Blueprint course is closed right now (I only open it once a year), I want you to grab my free ebook. It’s the perfect first step to organize your thoughts and create a plan you can actually follow, so you can move past endless research and start enjoying the benefits of your low-toxin home.
I’m also really excited about something new I’m working on—an online program for realtors that they can give to their new homebuyers. Because honestly, healthy house hunting shouldn’t be a secret that only some families know about.
Thank you for being part of this community. I’m truly grateful that you’re here, learning alongside me and making these changes for your family. Here’s to a 2026 filled with health, clarity, and so much peace in your home.
