048: The Zero-Waste Swaps that Save Serious Cash

048: The Zero-Waste Swaps that Save Serious Cash

Keep your cash in your pocket with these zero-waste swaps that save serious money.

Companies have most consumers hooked on pre-packaged disposables.

But sustainable minimalists? We know better:

– We know that disposable items (Think: paper napkins, menstrual products, etc) boast hefty price tags.

– We know, too, that companies selling disposables are secretly doing the Happy Dance for creating REPEAT CUSTOMERS out of regular consumers.

There’s a better way! On today’s episode my guest + I boldly claim that a life without disposables saves *serious* cash.

My guest this week is Natassja Cassinerio. She invites us to save our hard-earned money by replacing 40 common household items with their greener counterparts, then she shows us how.

Enjoy!

[19:00] Stop assuming that products on store shelves are safe! (And other advice for listeners who feel they have too much on their plate to worry about microscopic amounts of chemicals.)

[24:00] “It’s definitely not easy, but it’s also not that hard.” Here’s how Dr. Swan avoids plastic in her own life

[32:00] Hormone disrupting chemicals are in EVERYthing. How to identify which lifestyle swaps actually move the needle and which are just noise
