Check out this episode to hear from Chase the founder, along with his wife, of The Woolshire - manufacturer of handmade, organic wool and cotton pillows. The Woolshire provides a healthy alternative to traditional toxic pillows, which are full of synthetic chemicals known to be harmful to humans. They handmake each pillow from their Idaho farmstead by domestically sourcing the highest quality ingredients. The care and love in their pillows is self-evident. And did I mention lead to an incredible night's sleep!

PS - The Woolshire has an excellent social media presence. We reviewed two of their Instagram reels (linked below) during the conversation, which unfortunately are hard to hear in the recording. Be sure to check out the reels on their Instagram @thewoolshire and check out their website https://thewoolshire.com/
