In this episode of The Live Lightly Podcast, I sit down with Aidan Charron from Earth Day Organization to dive into one of the most urgent environmental issues of our time: plastic pollution. We unpack what’s really happening behind the scenes with the Global Plastics Treaty, where negotiations currently stand, and why this treaty could be a game-changer for the planet.
Aidan and I explore how plastic impacts human health, air quality, and disproportionately harms low-income communities. We talk about the economic costs of plastic pollution, the toxins released during plastic production and disposal, and why plastic is more than just a waste issue—it’s a public health crisis.
This conversation is packed with powerful insights on how everyday choices and consumer responsibility play a crucial role in driving systemic change. We also highlight stories of community advocacy, actionable tips to reduce your plastic use, and how to stay hopeful and empowered in the fight for a cleaner, more just world.
If you're looking for practical ways to live more sustainably, understand the broader impact of plastic, and feel inspired to take action, this episode is for you.

In this episode of The Live Lightly Podcast, I sit down with Corporate Health Consultant, Dani Alger, to talk about one of the most foundational (and often overlooked) pillars of wellness—sleep. We dive into how our circadian rhythm, nutrition, and daily habits are all deeply interconnected, and how modern life often pulls us out of sync with our body’s natural systems.
Dani shares her health journey and explains how s few pivitol moments in her life helped to shape her understanding of what health truly means. We explore how things like screen time, artificial lighting, late-night eating, and inconsistent routines can disrupt our sleep and hormone balance, and why this matters for our overall health.
We also talk about the magic of morning light, how to manage light exposure throughout the day to support healthy sleep, and why it's vital to help our children build healthy habits from a young age to balance circadian rhythm, the foundation of optimal sleep. You’ll walk away from this conversation with practical tips to regain control of your sleep and take back your health—naturally.
Key Takeaways:
Sleep is the foundation of long-term health and emotional well-being.
Aligning your habits with your circadian rhythm can dramatically improve sleep quality.
Nutrition plays a crucial role in hormone balance, sleep, and energy levels.
Morning sunlight exposure helps reset your biological clock.
Avoiding food late at night supports better rest and metabolic health.
Family meals promote connection and better nutrition for kids and adults.
Reducing technology use in the evening supports deeper, more restorative sleep.
Chronic stress and elevated cortisol can disrupt your sleep and overall health.
Lifestyle choices give us more control over our health than we realize.
Teaching kids about health early on empowers them for life.
If you're feeling out of balance, anxious, or constantly tired, this episode will give you clarity and hope!

It’s such an honor to have Aidan return to the show to share his passion, wisdom, and leadership as we dive into this year’s powerful (pun intended) Earth Day 2025 theme: Our Power, Our Planet.

You’ll hear actionable insights, inspiring examples, and a whole lot of hope.
Aidan and I talk about the global shift to renewable energy, the role of community action, and how each of us can make a real difference in the fight against climate change. He shares powerful stories of grassroots movements, highlights countries like China and Uruguay leading in clean energy, and explains how even small actions—like reaching out to your energy provider—can help accelerate change.
We also explore the challenges posed by the fossil fuel industry, the rising affordability of clean energy like wind and hydroelectric power, and how cities like Iowa City are reducing emissions through local leadership.
Whether you're looking for ways to get involved with Earth Day 2025, want to better understand the renewable energy movement, or just need a little eco-inspiration, this episode is for you.
🌿 Key Takeaways:

In this episode of the Live Lightly podcast, I’m excited to sit down with Emma Denler — a passionate zero waste advocate, Air Force veteran, and sustainability educator. Emma shares her inspiring journey from growing up in a small town in Ohio to her time in the U.S. Air Force, where she became deeply aware of the impact of waste, plastic pollution, and the urgent need for change.
Together, we dive into the realities of recycling and why it’s not the ultimate solution to waste. Emma and I talk about the most common recycling mistakes, how to avoid contamination, and why checking your local recycling rules is key. We also bust myths around zero waste living — it’s not about being perfect; it’s about making conscious, intentional choices that reduce waste in ways that fit your life.
In this conversation, we share affordable, practical zero waste tips for reducing household waste, saving money with reusable products, and embracing the philosophy of using what you already own. We also talk about small changes that can lead to big impacts, proving that every effort — even reducing waste by 1% — truly counts.
Emma also shares how to spot greenwashing, why so many companies mislead consumers with false “eco-friendly” claims, and how to look for third-party certifications that actually mean something.
You’ll also learn how to evaluate a company’s values, research ingredients and packaging for sustainability, and question product claims to make smarter, more informed choices. Plus, Emma highlights small businesses that genuinely prioritize sustainability and points listeners to helpful resources that make sustainable living more accessible and less intimidating.
If you’re ready to reduce waste, shop smarter, and live in harmony with nature — without pressure or perfection — this episode is for you.

In this episode of the Live Lightly Podcast, I sit down with Chef Whitney Aronoff, a holistic, health-supportive chef, to explore the transformative power of eating high-frequency food. Whitney shares her journey from struggling with health issues to embracing a high-vibration lifestyle through mindful eating and holistic nutrition.
We discuss how food carries energy and what defines its frequency, how eating these foods impacts our well-being, and why simplicity in cooking improves digestion. She explains the benefits of sourcing seasonal produce for our bodies and the environment. She shares her daily wellness practices, including meditation and mindfulness, and offers practical tips for anyone looking to improve their relationship with food.
If you want to feel more energized, improve nutrition intake, and make informed and empowered food choices, this conversation will inspire you to start sourcing food and cooking with intention and care.

In this episode of The Live Lightly Podcast, I sit down with Jackie Simek to talk about her fertility journey and how she discovered the power of food and lifestyle changes in optimizing egg quality and quantity—especially for women over 40 considering egg freezing. Through her personal experience, Jackie learned how diet, nutrient density, and reducing exposure to everyday toxins can have a profound impact on reproductive health.
We dive into the best foods for fertility, why quality matters more than just eating organic, and how small changes—like starting the day with a protein-rich breakfast—can improve hormone balance and egg quality. Jackie also shares how hidden toxins in household products, fragrances, and beauty items can negatively affect fertility and what simple swaps can make the biggest difference. If you're thinking about freezing your eggs or want to support your reproductive health naturally, this conversation is packed with valuable insights.

In this deeply insightful conversation of The Live Lightly Podcast, I sit down with Erin Easterly to explore the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda and the powerful connection between the five elements of nature and personal health because our bodies are an extension of these elements. Erin opens up about her personal healing journey with chronic fatigue syndrome and how discovering Ayurveda transformed her health and ultimately led her to a fulfilling career in holistic healing.
We dive into the five elements of Ayurveda and how they influence everything from aging and disease prevention to overall balance in our daily lives. We also take a hard look at the modern lifestyle and its impact on heart disease, cancer, and metabolic disorders, breaking down how environmental toxins, diet, and stress play a critical role in these conditions.
This episode is filled with practical steps for integrating Ayurvedic principles into everyday life, from nourishing food choices to detoxification and mindful living. Erin and I discuss the importance of creating space, finding balance, and reconnecting with nature—because when we align with the rhythms of Mother Nature, we cultivate true, lasting health.
🌱 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
✅ The Foundations of Ayurveda – How the five elements and doshas shape your health and daily life.
✅ Aging Naturally – Why Ayurveda sees aging as a transition, not a problem to fix.
✅ Detoxing for You & the Planet – The power of Panchakarma, an Ayurvedic detox that removes toxins and reduces environmental waste.
✅ Sustainable Eating & Nutrition – How to avoid processed foods, balance omega-3 & omega-6, and choose earth-friendly, nourishing meals.
✅ Hidden Dangers in Everyday Items – Why you should ditch black, hard plastic kitchen utensils for safer, sustainable alternatives.
✅ The Link Between Pollution & Chronic Disease – How air pollution, microplastics, and modern food systems contribute to metabolic syndrome, cancer & heart disease—and what you can do to protect yourself.
✅ The Power of Mindfulness – How making space for meditation & conscious living can reduce stress and create lasting wellness.
🌿 Listen in and discover how Ayurveda can help you take control of your well-being while living in harmony with Mother Nature! 🌍✨

In this episode of The Live Lightly Podcast, I sit down with Reverend Jen Cormier to explore the deep and intricate connection between grief and the environmental challenges we face today. Grief isn’t just about the loss of loved ones—it’s about the many forms of loss we experience, including witnessing a changing world and the environmental crises unfolding around us.
Jen shares her incredible insights into navigating these emotions, emphasizing the importance of slowing down, reconnecting with nature, and creating daily rituals to combat feelings of overwhelm. She explains how grief, when processed with intention and self-compassion, can lead to transformation and personal growth. We also dive into the energetic power of sound for healing and emotional release—whether it’s through laughter, crying, or intentional sound practices—and discuss how this connects to balancing the vagus nerve and regulating our nervous system.
Throughout our conversation, we talk about the importance of acknowledging the emotions that come with global challenges while finding small, meaningful actions we can take. Jen reminds us that it’s okay to embrace imperfection, take bite-sized steps, and focus on what is truly ours to do, especially in the face of such a chaotic world.
This episode is full of practical strategies and heartfelt encouragement for anyone feeling overwhelmed by grief, loss, or the state of the planet. Together, we reflect on how community support, emotional release, and reconnection with nature can help us navigate these feelings and find empowerment, even in times of uncertainty.

Today I speak with Caroline Alan to delve into the critical role of minerals in cellular detoxification, hydration, and overall health. Caroline shares her personal health journey with oral health, gut health, adrenal fatigue, and ongoing sinus infections that led her to discover the importance of plant-based minerals, emphasizing that minerals are foundational to cellular health and energy production. We discuss the consequences of mineral deficiencies, the impact of modern farming on soil nutrient content, and the significance of bioavailability in mineral absorption. Our conversation also covers detoxification processes, the balance of mineral intake, and the benefits of using plant-based minerals like fulvic and humic acids for detoxification and proper cellular hydration without the use of electrolyte supplements or sports drinks. Caroline provides practical advice for us to easily incorporate these minerals into our daily routines, especially for children, and highlights the importance of maintaining a healthy balanced ecosystem within the body.
