30. Toss the Toxins With Allison Evans

Are you ready to toss the toxins and get back to basics? I sure am! Today's guest is the ever courageous Allison Evans. I first discovered Allison after hearing her story through Branch Basics. Allison is a co-founder of Branch Basics. She has dedicated herself to helping others reap the benefits of clean living after experiencing life-changing healing from living in an environment free of toxic chemicals.  I won’t dive into her story here because I want to let her tell you for herself, but Allison loves researching all things holistic parenting, clean eating, and she especially loves helping others navigate their health journeys.  This episode is really important to me because I recently learned I have endometriosis, and it threw my baby-making plans for a loop. After connecting with Allison and hearing her story, I discovered I’m not alone in this hormonal struggle.  My intention with this episode is to ensure women are informed and are provided the tools and education they need to be proactive in their overall health.  IN TODAY'S EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN:  Allison's health journey and what led to the creation of Branch Basics (4:47) How toxic products are disrupting our endocrine system (10:30) How we have become desensitized to fragrance (13:40) The importance of becoming more comfortable with the smell of clean (17:13) About Lyme Disease and how Allison is treating it holistically (18:00) Allison's feelings about birth control being used for symptom management (24:19) The first thing to do if you have endocrine-related symptoms (25:07) How to avoid overwhelm when removing toxins from your home (29:24) All about the wonders of Branch Basics (31:06) The two main categories of cleaning products and how we are depleting our gut bacteria through our cleaning products (33:45) The power of using Branch Basics for your laundry (38:10) Allison's challenge for you (40:19) I can’t wait to hear your feedback on this episode!
