While there's a lot of chatter about tidying, it's radio silence and crickets when it comes to sustainability. The result?

She's here to explore the topics of conscious consumerism, sustainability, and environmentally-friendly parenting practices with like-minded women; she's here, too, to show you how to curate eco-friendly, decluttered homes (without the extra work).
