Why Your Electric Bill Went Up the Data Center Nobody Voted For

Why Your Electric Bill Went Up the Data Center Nobody Voted For

Your electric bill went up this year, but you didn't do anything differently. Somewhere near you, a really large building went up, and you likely never got a real say in whether it belonged there. This week I'm talking with Mitch Jones from Food and Water Watch, a 20-year veteran of climate, energy, and water policy work, about what's actually driving up your power bill, what's happening to water and land in communities where these facilities are being built, and the early health signals researchers are just starting to document. We also get into the greenwashing claims the industry wants you to believe, what "bringing your own power" really means, and exactly what you can do if one of these projects is proposed near you, because communities are stopping them, and you can be part of that.

The Sherlock Holmes of Medicine Solving Cases Everyone Else Gave Up On

He's spent 50 years treating the cases other doctors gave up on, and one of his earliest patients was an 8-year-old girl who was about to be put on antipsychotics for something no one could explain. It started with a detail her mother almost dismissed: her daughter took baths with a "mermaid." At eight years old, you assume that's just imagination. It wasn't. In this conversation, Dr. Jess Armine, a former paramedic, ER nurse, and 50-year healthcare provider turned chiropractor, walks through how he traced that little girl's symptoms back to something almost nobody was looking for, and how a young woman having 25 seizures a month got her life back using the same approach. We also get into why your multivitamin might not be doing what you think it's doing, the real hierarchy of supplement absorption, and the comprehensive gut-health protocol steps Dr. Armine says you can't go wrong doing, whether or not you've ever been formally diagnosed with anything.

The Ingredient in "Natural" Laundry Pods Nobody's Talking About

If you switched from conventional liquid laundry detergent to natural pods or strips thinking you made a cleaner choice... you might want to look closer at what that dissolvable film is actually made of. In this episode, I sit down with the founder of a zero-waste refill store, Janette Spiezio, to get into it, plus her vision for what sustainable living actually looks like. We also get into: • Why some genuinely organic farms no longer carry the "certified organic" label, and two questions to ask any farmer instead • Where your tax dollars meant for small farms are actually ending up (it's not who you'd guess) • The trade-offs of eating a Blue Zone-style diet • Why we're not paying farmers what their work is actually worth • Simple, low-cost swaps that make the biggest dent in your household toxin load Check out Janette's store: https://www.sustainablehaus.com/ and her Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sustainablehaus/ Grab my free guide, 10 Words on Your Food Labels That Are Lying to You, so you can start spotting the greenwashing yourself: https://www.greenlivingnow.com/food-labels Learn more about Green Living Now: https://www.greenlivingnow.com/ #nontoxicliving #greenliving #laundrydetergent #zerowaste #cleanliving Most of us are trying to do right by our health — but the food system, the labels, and the "expert" advice keep moving the goalposts.

Your Endometriosis Diagnosis Explains the Pain, Not the Cause

She spent years as a fitness and nutrition coach watching women do everything right: clean diet, regular exercise, healthy habits, and still feel terrible. Exhausted. Bloated. Moody. Cycles that hurt. Libido gone. And doctor after doctor telling them it was normal. Then it happened to her. Tierra Duncan, author of The Birth Control Illusion, shares her own journey through endometriosis, a hormonal IUD she struggled to get removed, and a two-year recovery nobody handed her a roadmap for. What she discovered along the way changed everything she thought she knew about women's health. In this episode we get into what your hormones are actually doing beyond fertility, what your menstrual cycle is trying to tell you every single month, which nutrients hormonal birth control quietly depletes, the gut-progesterone connection most women never hear about, and how to walk into a doctor's appointment feeling like you have a seat at the table.

I Thought Organic Cotton Was Safe Here's What I Found Out

I thought organic cotton was safe...until this interview. I've spent years helping people reduce their toxic load — in their kitchens, their cleaning products, their food. But, what Courtney shared really surprised me. Most of us who are paying attention to what goes in our bodies. But, we don't necessarily pay attention to the clothes we wear. Some of us buy organic cotton. We read labels & we wash before we wear. It turns out that may not be enough.And, if you wear yoga pants, this one is definitely for you. Sustainable fashion expert Courtney Barriger has spent over a decade inside the fashion industry — interviewing scientists, toxicologists, and manufacturers, and getting back the reports most of us never see. What she shares in this episode about what's legally allowed on a certified organic garment, what happens every time you wash synthetic fabrics, and what certain fibers are doing to your hormones will change how you open your closet tomorrow morning. This isn't about making us feel guilty, but it is about information you deserve to have — and practical swaps you can make one step at a time. Guest: Courtney BarrigerSustainable fashion expert, award-winning artist, and author of ReFashion Workshop: The Planet Healing Mindset. Her brand Holding Court has been featured in Vanity Fair and GQ, and her work has been recognized by the United Nations nonprofit Fashion Fights Poverty. 🔗 courtneybarriger.com🔗 holdingcourtinc.com🔗 ReFashion Workshop: https://courtneybarriger.substack.com...

Host Amy Hartshorn is a green living educator, certified organic farmer, and upcoming TEDx speaker who has spent over 30 years helping people navigate food, toxins, and holistic health — not with fear, but with clarity and a decision-making framework you can actually use.
