S3E12 Navigating Life's Major Moments with Less Stress & Fewer Toxins with Megan Riley

It’s not every day that you get to podcast with one of your best friends in your new podcast studio! In this episode, I chat with Megan Riley about non-toxic living, wedding planning, and trying to conceive. We cover a lot in this conversation - from our time in the classroom together when we were first learning about nontoxic living to supporting each other in our careers and personal lives. It was amazing to see how far we’ve come from the 22-year-old new teachers we were when we met!

I have always been inspired by Megan’s ability to go after what she wants and to commit to it 100%. Her determination, do-it-yourself attitude, and vulnerability have helped me grow as a person. I think you will leave this conversation a bit more inspired to go after what you want and to be more open with your people. 

Megan Riley is a teacher, wedding planner, mother, and lover of nontoxic living. She has a passion for helping brides bring their wedding vision to life (and loves a color coded to-do list). At the end of the day, Megan loves nothing more than being a mother, and this has only strengthened her mission to continue to find non-toxic product swaps for her home, body, and child.
