Cleaning Up Cereal & Big Business with Parker Brook

Did you know that 67% of the average child's diet is junk food and 1 in 2 children have a chronic health condition? This week Tee welcomes Parker Brook, a former “Big Food” executive who is on a mission to change these stats. After developing an autoimmune condition and then welcoming the birth of his daughter, Parker was inspired to leave his job and start Lovebird, a gut health-boosting organic, grain-free, and no-refined sugar cereal.  The birth of his daughter was such a powerful experience that Parker felt the responsibility to rise above his autoimmune disease to provide love and protection. That feeling became a calling. Working in the big food industry, he knew there was a better way to make food for himself, his daughter, and the world. Parker's purpose is to help families eat better so they can rise and fly with food from the earth, lightly sweetened by nature. In this episode, Tee and Parker discuss the development and formulation of Lovebird’s first cereals. From Parker's kitchen table to the aisles of Whole Foods, Parker recounts the process of testing and refining while continuing to develop the live-with-love philosophy of Lovebird. We all know that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but until now there were few choices for parents looking to nourish their children's bodies with a cereal free of highly inflammatory ingredients and full of nutrition. Lovebird gives you that option. 20% of Lovebird’s profits go to fighting childhood cancer, a case that Parker has been passionate about after spending time with children and families battling cancer during his autoimmune diagnosis and recovery.

How to Read a Food Label with Tasha Rosales

This week Tee welcomes Tasha Rosales to the podcast for a conversation that is tailor-made for Green Living with Tee! Tasha is the owner of Wellness Homemade and is a Board Certified Holistic Health Practitioner and Nutrition Counselor who created the program, Informed Eating Academy. Her aim is to assist people in becoming informed eaters by teaching them how to read food labels, which helps them find their balance, gain energy, and take back control of their lives through straightforward nutritional changes, mindset, and accountability. Her programs and workshops focus on making healthy eating an enjoyable and easy process without feeling restricted. With “Remember to read your labels and know your ingredients” being somewhat of a mantra here on the show, this was of course an ideal chat. Tasha helps to guide listeners through the “foreign language” that is ingredient labels while reminding everyone of the importance of not being overwhelmed by all of the information. Tee and Tasha zero in on some of the key ingredients to be on the lookout for such as sugars, and bad oils. By breaking down many of the most common toxic and unhealthy ingredients Tasha demonstrates to listeners how you can slowly start to learn this language of labels and what to be on the lookout for. This conversation is vital for anyone looking to take some of the first steps toward a healthier and more balanced lifestyle. By beginning to apply Tasha’s food label advice along with her strategic grocery shopping tips she hopes to bring some simplicity and clarity to the chaotic and even corrupt system of food labeling here in the United States. It is her sincere hope that the work that she is doing with Wellness Homemade and The Informed Eating Academy will contribute in small part to the tide of change that we are seeing within the health food and organic food community.  Connect with Tasha:  Website: https://www.wellnesshomemade.org/ Instagram: ​​https://www.instagram.com/wellness.homemade/?hl=en 30%  Off Tasha’s Label Reading Workshop.

Toxin-Free Talk with Nontoxic Mama Bear Jenna Johnson

This week on Green Living with Tee, Tee welcomes Jenna Johnson for an informative conversation about how parents and individuals can begin to detoxify their everyday lives and take small steps towards a toxin-free lifestyle. Jenna and Tee discuss some of the practical first steps that any parent can take to protect their children from the overwhelming amount of toxic chemicals in our everyday products. Jenna brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to this talk to help anyone overwhelmed by questions about harmful chemicals and toxins to begin taking the critical first steps toward a healthier and happier way of living. Jenna is a mother of three and a retired special education teacher who took her passion for toxin-free living and turned it into a way to connect with other families on her social media platforms. Jenna began her journey almost 7 years ago when she was pregnant with her first child. Jenna had no idea that toxins were harmful to her developing baby and once she dove down that rabbit hole, there was no going back. Jenna started a Facebook group as a way to share resources and journal articles regarding the safety of ingredients and started bringing awareness to greenwashed brands. Jenna left teaching to pursue her passion for helping families ditch toxins. Now she is coming out with a new children’s book, focusing on the harm of plastic. “We have to teach our children to do better” Jenna insists and of course, Tee could not agree more! In addition, Jenna writes blogs and articles for companies that share her passion. She has published a Home Detox Guide ebook with over 150 pages of toxin-free tips, DIY recipes, brand recommendations, and ways to decrease your chemical exposure on a daily basis. Jenna has more guides set to release this year. Jenna lives with her husband and three children in Texas.
