I believe God has tasked us to be good stewards of our spaces in the world, and I guide my children to do the same.

I’ve mentioned our ditch and switch efforts a number of times as part of my family’s holistic lifestyle choices. That has entailed going through most rooms in our home, ditching toxic products, and switching them for healthier, safe versions. It’s been a slow process that’s taken place over years. In fact, it’s a family journey...
