Top 2.5% Globally Ranked Podcast in Holistic Health & Wellness

If your home looks clean but something still feels off — if your energy is low, your skin’s acting up, or you’re tired of second-guessing every “eco-friendly” label — you’re in the right place.

I’m Cynthia Harvey-Brown, a Certified Wellness Coach and Non-Toxic Lifestyle Strategist who’s coached over 1000 students. I’m here to help you and other health-conscious moms and moms-to-be simplify clean living, reduce hidden household toxins, and create homes that truly support their family’s well-being.

Here, you’ll learn how to:

  • Audit your home for harmful ingredients that may be hiding in everyday products.

  • Replace them with safe, proven, eco-friendly alternatives.

  • Build habits that sustain your health, clarity, and peace of mind.

Because this isn’t about fear or perfection — it’s about the lived experience of walking into your home and knowing it supports you: your body, your values, and your faith.

Each week, tune in for practical swaps, mindset shifts, and step-by-step strategies that make clean living simple, trustworthy, and doable. Together, we’ll lighten your toxic load, boost your energy, and help you feel, look, and sleep better — one small shift at a time.

You deserve a clean slate — and a home that gives back to you.

Hey Sis,
Isn’t it funny how some habits serve you well and others—not so much? In today’s episode, you will discover what a capsule wardrobe is and how it has been a game-changer for me.
Getting dressed has never been easier and stress-free. Well, that’s the concept behind a capsule wardrobe collection. Your time is too valuable to waste trying to figure out, once again, what you should wear. This practice will be a life saver, time saver, and it’s a money saver”.
When you think about it, everything begins small-- countries, cities, and even corporations. Why not build yourself a capsule wardrobe?
 
Zechariah 4:10 tells us do not despise small beginnings.
I pray this inspires you!

Hey Friends!
Today I am sharing another industry secret that you can easily include in your daily routine, and it will make a BIG difference in your journey to understanding how sustainability can benefit you.  
I'm unpacking news from a recent medical report about a chemical substance called formaldehyde that is still added to textiles used to make our clothes and what you can do to safeguard yourself and your family. I hope this simple hack helps you as much as it's helped me since incorporating this practice in my home a few years ago.
I will continue researching this surprising connection between fashion, wellness, and sustainability. You can expect more insightful topics like this every Tuesday. Don't miss an episode!

Hi Friend!
In this short episode, I share 3 simple ideas to consider that will help you recognize how simple changes can lead to a greater sense of inner peace.
The funny thing is we want a simpler life--but living a simple and content lifestyle looks different for everyone. What does that look like for you? Could it involve decluttering your physical space, embracing minimalism, simplifying your daily routines, and spending more time in nature or reading?
Ultimately, it is about finding what brings you joy, peace, and true fulfillment in your personal space that aligns with your values and supports your overall well-being. 
Have a Happy 4th! Enjoy!!

Hi Friend!
In this episode, we define the meaning of "slow fashion" and peek into the world of "slow fashion" to uncover five reasons why this growing movement is worth your attention. Breakups are hard mentally, emotionally, and physically. It takes time to get over a bad relationship, and it’s no different regarding cheaply made clothes. But, after listening, you will understand the positive impact of slow fashion and why it’s worth considering in your personal life.
I’m witnessing the popularity of slow fashion's growth start to balance the scales as more and more consumers have grown dissatisfied with fast fashion, looking for a change and seeking more thoughtful choices. This trend signifies a shift towards more sustainable consumption habits and rejecting fast fashion's disposable nature.
Once I decided to stop spending my money on “pretty” clothes designed to fall apart fast—it became easier for me to become a smarter shopper, and so can you. I encourage you to take small steps towards living a healthier, more sustainable lifestyle, and I’m here to help you reach that goal.
Thank you for joining me, and I invite you to tune in to new episodes every Tuesday for more inspiring, informative content that has the potential to change your life.
Enjoy!
xoxo,
Cynthia
