Recently, I had the pleasure of talking with Andrew Pace, Healthy Home Concierge and Founder of The Green Design Center, as a guest on his Non Toxic Environments podcast. Our episode is titled "Talking Home Detox With Sophia Ruan Gushée."

Diving into my background, Andrew asks me about how I got into practical nontoxic living, how I felt about my book A to Z of D-Toxing, why I created it, and others' reactions to it. In this conversation on the Non Toxic Environments podcast, I also share simple home detox tips that everyone should consider.
