Health By Nature…Where Clean Meets Green!

Thank you for visiting my blog! I hope you’ll want to visit regularly and contribute to this site to share anything on your mind about health and the environment.

First, I’d like to introduce myself. My name is Lisa, and I live in a suburb of Chicago. Since childhood, my *pet cause* has always been the environment. In high school, I led a movement to eliminate styrofoam trays in the cafeteria, which were not recyclable, and replace them with eco-friendly cardboard ones. I participated in voluntary recycling programs. As an adult, I went on to become an educator and was able to incorporate eco-awareness into the curriculum.

Fast forward 9 years. I am now a SAHM to 3 lovely girls, ages, 9, 6 & 2. Heaven knows they keep me busy, and parenting is a job with rewards like no other. Despite that, I still had a restlessness to do something useful in another arena outside the home. Last spring, a fellow mom at my kids’ school introduced me to Get Clean. You may have seen these products on an Earth Day segment on Oprah (which was in re-runs this past week), or on her “Favorite Things” episode, or perhaps on BGTV. This mom loaned me some of the non-toxic, “green” cleaning products to take home over the weekend and try. On Monday, I ordered the whole set.

It wasn’t until October that I decided to try my hand at a home-based business. Never had I dreamed I would do anything remotely related to sales–it’s just never been my *gig*. But to me, it’s not about sales–it’s about making a difference, one home at a time, and improving the lives of others. I realized that this is my way to do something meaningful while maintaining my *stay-at-home* status and not sacrificing any time with my kids. What a win-win situation!
