Wayfair Every style Every home that's W A Y F A I R.com hey, it's JJ here. You know, I've been talking about environmental toxins forever, and laundry detergent is a sneaky one. A lot of them contain harsh chemicals like dyes, preservatives, and even UV brighteners. Those brighteners don't actually clean anything, they just coat fabric so your eyes think things look whiter or brighter. That's more chemicals I don't want on my family sheets or skin. And if you've got sensitive skin or allergies around the house, this can be a big problem. That's what got my attention about Earth Breeze. It looks like a dryer sheet, but it's actually laundry detergent. You toss one in the washer and that's it. No pouring, no mess, and no heavy plastic jug. Their packaging is lightweight cardboard, which helps reduce plastic waste. And if you choose the fragrance free option, it's gentle, hypoallergenic, non irritating and non sensitizing. I really like how simple it is and how fresh and clean everything comes out without those unnecessary chemicals.

Of this wild ride, you know what I mean?
And if you're new to the community, welcome and let me take you back in time for a moment. So I launched this podcast back in 2014. I actually had to convince my team that this was a great idea because pods weren't a thing back then. I started it at the Virgin Diet Lifestyle show, then I turned it into the JJ Virgin Lifestyle show. And then for a brief moment, I even tested out daily short shows as.
Ask the Health Expert.
But I miss the ability to go deep into subjects that you and I are interested in and most of all, connecting with the amazing guests that you meet on this show. Turns out you did too. So I went back to our current format and then last year we rebranded to well beyond 40 to go all in in everything that supports powerful aging. We also started bringing in some advertisers last year. Producing a podcast is a lot and it takes a village to do well and I wanted to make sure that I could turn it into a high quality show that serves you well and.

Hello listeners, this is Anne Boeckl, author, blogger and creator of the podcast what Should I Read next? Since 2016, I've been helping readers bring more joy and delight into their reading lives. Every week, I take all things books and reading with a guest and guide them in discovering their next read. They share three books they love, one book they don't, and what they've been reading lately, and I recommend three titles they may enjoy reading next. Guests have said our conversations are like therapy, troubleshooting issues that have plagued their reading lives for years, and possibly the rest of their lives as well. And of course, recommending books that meet the moment. Whether they are looking for deep introspection to spur or encourage a life change, or a frothy page turner to help them escape the stresses of work, school, everything. You'll learn something about yourself as a reader, and you'll definitely walk away confident to choose your next read, with a whole list of new books and authors to try. So join us each Tuesday for what Should I Read Next? Subscribe now wherever you're listening to this podcast and visit our website whatshouldireadnextpodcast. Com to find out more.
