Hi!

I am passionate about empowering people with the safest way to detox: avoiding toxic chemicals, heavy metals, and electromagnetic fields (EMFs) from what we buy, own and do.

Why do I care so much? Because it's super influential and often overlooked.

My interest in avoiding the toxic exposures that are easy to avoid began soon after my first daughter was born in 2007. Stunned at how much our purchasing increased for our daughter, I was troubled to learn that these products could expose her to toxic chemicals and heavy metals that could participate in her development. Hundreds of credible reports motivated me to research her baby bottles, baby bottle nipples, infant formula, food, crib mattresses, pacifiers, and more. 

For approximately eight years, I dived deep into the most credible science available and I shared what I wish I knew sooner in my first book A to Z of D-Toxing: The Ultimate Guide to Reducing Our Toxic Exposures (published in 2015).

Since 2007, I have been fine-tuning how I apply the science into real life—as a NYC mom of three incredible daughters and wife to a Manifesting Generator (I'm an MG too).

Having simplified this highly complex topic into a commonsense approach that would help many, I am passionate about making practical nontoxic living easier for others. I hope you will benefit from my offerings.

Sincerely,

Sophia
