Ep. 173: Non-toxic living is more important than ever, and today, we’re breaking down why with Jordan Nathan, the CEO of Caraway Cookware. You’ve heard me rave about their products, but there’s a deeper reason behind my obsession - traditional cookware can leak harmful chemicals into your food in minutes. If you’re not careful what you’re cooking with, teflon, cadmium, and microplastics can seep into your meals, disrupting hormones, digestion, and overall health. In this episode, Jordan shares his personal wake-up call that led to founding Caraway, the truth about Teflon and other toxins, and simple swaps that make a big difference. Whether you’re already a Caraway fan or just curious about a safer, healthier home, this conversation is packed with insights you won’t want to miss.
