The first thing I tell people to do when they embark of their holistic living journey is to ditch fragrances. It’s the first but also often the hardest step to embrace. Fragrances are deeply rooted in our memories of what grandma was cooking as a child and fresh sheets on a Sunday morning.

That’s why going natural and fragrance-free can be such a difficult step to take. But today, i’m going to tell you WHY you should try to eliminate fragrances from your household. Companies have been manipulating what you buy to trigger these happy memories but they haven’t taken your health into account.

We’'ll get into the specifics of what exactly is in these fragrances that makes them such a problem for your health and its direct relation to infertility, hormone disorders, miscarriage rates, and more. But I won’t just leave you anxious about the pervasive use of fragrances in our products.

Luckily, we’ve got so many options to choose in order to avoid these toxins now and I’ll dive in to what you'll find in my home and where you can shop for them.
