Hi Sis,

Have you ever looked at a product label and thought, “What’s really in this?” If you’ve been called “too much” for caring about ingredients—this episode is for you.

Coach Cynthia brings truth, grace, and science together to affirm your low-tox journey. Learn how “fragrance” hides harmful toxins, why your daily routine might be causing fatigue or hormonal shifts, and what Scripture says about body stewardship.

Xoxo, Cynthia

Hey Friend,

What if your journey toward a low-toxic lifestyle didn’t begin with switching your skincare or tossing out plastic, but instead you started right in your closet?

In this episode of Start Living Sustainable, I’m inviting you to rethink what “cleaner choices” really look like. Because for some women, the most powerful first step into intentional, eco-conscious living begins not in the kitchen or nursery—but with the cloth...

Hi Friends!

So in today’s episode, we’re diving into what it really means to think differently about your health, especially in a world where unhealthy habits have been dressed up as normal.

If you’ve ever felt like the odd one out for questioning what’s in your food, your lotion, your cleaning spray, or even in the prescription handed to you in a 7-minute appointment—you’re in the right place.

No blame here. It’s about awareness. ...

Hey Mom!

You’re pregnant. The love is pouring in. So is the advice—from your mom, your cousin, your best friend, and even strangers online. Everyone means well… but inside, you’re quietly asking:

“How do I make the right choices for my baby and still honor what I’m learning about wellness and toxins?”

In this episode of Start Living Sustainable, we get real about the emotional tug-of-war between being grateful for support and sta...

Hey Sis,

We love research… but let’s be honest—science is usually just playing catch-up to what the Scriptures has already made clear. The Bible said all along—your thoughts, words, and emotional patterns shape your health and your life.

In this episode, I share 3 timeless truths—renew your mind, speak life, and let peace rule—that science now validates, but the Bible declared first. Whether you’ve studied the Word or you’re just c...

Hi Friends,

What if your favorite “comfy” outfit is quietly messing with your health?

In this episode of Start Living Sustainable, I’m sharing what most people never consider: your wardrobe could be contributing to fatigue, breakouts, restless sleep, and even hormone imbalance—and it has nothing to do with how it fits.

You’ll hear how synthetic fabrics like polyester, nylon, and spandex can affect your skin, disrupt your hormones, ...

Ever wonder what’s really floating around in your home? Just because you can’t see allergens and toxins doesn’t mean they’re not affecting your health!

Everyday household products like cleaners, detergents, and air fresheners contain hidden chemical toxins that disrupt hormones, drain energy, and harm long-term health—many of which are banned in other countries but legal in the U.S.

In today's episode, I want to take a look at why you may be struggling to reach your wellness goals, and it's not what you think, -- it's your mindset?

I get it. Life is busy. Maybe you’ve told yourself:

Hi Friends,

So glad you're here!

Every day, your home is shaping your health. The rooms you spend time in—your bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, and your baby nursery—along with the sheets you sleep on, the clothes you wear, the detergent you use, the products on your skin, and even the air you breathe—all of it adds up. Over time, hidden toxins in these everyday items can impact your sleep, hormones, energy, and overall well-being.

Cheers Health-Conscious Fans,

In this episode, I’m unpacking a Super Bowl commercial that made me pause—not for its creativity, but for its message about our health. It called out America’s obesity crisis and the system that profits from keeping us sick. But was it really exposing the truth, or was it just another strategic marketing play?

At first, I thought—finally, someone’s addressing the real issue! But then, I saw the catch. ...
