  • S9 E126 The Power of Plant-Based Healing: How Your Skin Impacts Whole-Body Health with Jodi Scott
    Feb 26 2026

    In this episode of Healthy Habits for a Healthier Home, Robin sits down with Jodi Scott, co-founder of Green Goo, to explore the powerful connection between skin health and overall wellness.

    With a background in pre-med studies and a master’s degree in health psychology, Jodi shares how her family’s tradition of crafting herbal salves evolved into a trusted plant-based first aid and skincare company rooted in both traditional plant medicine and modern science.

    Together, they unpack why the skin is more than just a surface barrier — it’s an active communicator between the nervous, immune, and hormonal systems. This conversation dives into ingredient transparency, reducing toxic load, supporting the body naturally, and how small daily shifts can create lasting health transformation.

    ✨ Key Takeaways
    1. Skin health directly impacts nervous, immune, and hormonal balance
    2. What you put on your body matters just as much as what you put in it
    3. Plant-based ingredients can effectively support healing and repair
    4. Transparency in skincare builds consumer trust
    5. Less ingredients — done well — often work better
    6. Traditional herbal wisdom still has powerful relevance today
    7. Mindfulness and self-care are foundational to wellness
    8. Holistic health recognizes the body as an interconnected system
    9. Natural first aid solutions can reduce unnecessary chemical exposure
    10. Small 1% shifts lead to meaningful long-term change

  • S9 E125 The Teen Health Revolution with The Holistic Kids
    Feb 19 2026

    What happens when four brothers decide to challenge the status quo of teen health?

    In this powerful and hope-filled episode, I sit down with Abdullah (18), Zain (14), Emaad (12), and Qasim Ansari (10) — the incredible hosts of The Holistic Kids’ Show and co-authors of the best-selling book The Teen Health Revolution: Lifestyle Secrets to Optimize Your Mind, Body, and Soul.

    These young leaders are on a mission to empower teens (and families!) to take ownership of their health — mind, body, and soul. With over 200 podcast episodes and interviews featuring top physicians, New York Times bestselling authors, Harvard professors, and national voices in health, their show ranks in the top 2% of podcasts globally.

    But what moves me most? Their courage. Their conviction. And their heart for helping the next generation thrive instead of just survive.

    We talk about:

    ✨ Why teens need a new model of health

    ✨ Lifestyle habits that build resilience early

    ✨ Mental health through a holistic lens

    ✨ What inspired them to start a kid-run podcast

    ✨ How families can lead a “Teen Health Revolution” at home

    They’ve spoken at major functional medicine conferences, appeared on national TV, and are boldly stepping into rooms most adults never enter — all with the mission of changing the future of youth health.

    This conversation will inspire you — especially if you’re raising teens or navigating that season soon.

    📘 About The Holistic Kids

    Abdullah, Zain, Emaad, and Qasim Ansari are national speakers, youth wellness advocates, and hosts of The Holistic Kids’ Show. They are the co-authors of The Teen Health Revolution: Lifestyle Secrets to Optimize Your Mind, Body, and Soul, a powerful guide helping teens optimize their health naturally.

    They’ve been featured on NBC and CBS, interviewed leading experts across the wellness space, and continue to inspire families nationwide with their message of empowerment and lifestyle-based health.

  • S9E124 From Corporate Burnout to Cleaning Mama: Navigating Non-Toxic Living
    Jan 28 2026
    Episode Summary

    In this episode of Healthy Habits for a Healthier Home, Robin sits down with Mona Murahwa, founder of Cleaning Mama, to talk about burnout, big pivots, and the powerful connection between our home environment and our health.

    Mona shares her journey from a demanding corporate career to creating small-batch, non-toxic cleaning products rooted in intention, quality, and care. Together, they unpack why reading ingredients matters, how toxic cleaning products can impact hormones and overall wellness, and why greenwashing makes it harder than ever for families to make truly healthy choices.

    This conversation is an empowering reminder that it’s okay to pivot, simplify, and choose products—and careers—that support peace, health, and purpose.

    🌿 Key Takeaways
    1. Burnout can be a sacred nudge toward reevaluating purpose and priorities
    2. Conventional cleaning products can negatively impact hormones and family health
    3. Reading ingredients is essential for informed, empowered choices
    4. “Fragrance” can mean very different things—natural vs. synthetic matters
    5. Small-batch production supports quality, transparency, and trust
    6. Greenwashing is widespread in the cleaning and wellness industry
    7. Mindful product choices support long-term health outcomes
    8. Multi-purpose cleaners reduce clutter, overwhelm, and cost
