As you're out there stocking up on all the bread and toilet paper one could possibly ever need, let me add another item to your list: Biokleen's Bac-Out! 🍞🧻🛍 . This stuff is the only stain remover I ever buy for laundry AND carpet stains, and it's the most effective thing I've ever used! 💃🏼💃🏼 And this company is pretty awesome. The bac-out is made from primarily plant derived 🌱 ingredients (so it smells quite nice) and is free from toxins (so I don't have to worry about harsh chemicals on my home or body!) No spray bottles or paper towels needed!! 👨‍👩‍👦 @biokleenhome also does a great job of trying to be as sustainable as possible in their manufacturing by doing things like conserving water 💧 and being conscious of the shipping and packaging of their products 🚛. I do wish they weren't in plastic bottles and used glass instead, but they try to use only recyclable plastics as much as possible. ♻️ . I've included a video so that you can see just how good this stuff is, but fair warning ⚠️, when you swipe you will see the kind of stains I deal with as a mama 👶🏻💩 don't think about it, just watch ➡️ oh, and don't mind the baby crying in the background either, I promise dad was with him! 🙏🏼 . I just love it when you find a product that works so well and you know you won't ever need to search again in your lifetime! So I wanted to share with everyone (and they're not even paying me for this!). 🤗 . . . #greencleaning #greencleaningproducts #naturalstainremover #stainremover #stainremoval #ecofriendlyproducts #ecofriendlyliving #ecofriendlycleaning #ecofriendlycleaningproducts #naturallaundry #sustainablebusiness #sustainablecompany #consciousconsumer #consciousconsumerism #supportamericanmade #crueltyfreeproducts #crueltyfreeliving #crueltyfreecleaning #crueltyfreelifestyle #greenhome #sustainablehome #toxinfreeliving #toxinfreehome #toxinfreecleaning #toxinfreemama #lowwastemovement #lowimpactmovement #toxinfreelifestyle #ecomama #sweatshopfree

"𝙇𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩𝙚𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙪𝙘𝙠 𝙩𝙬𝙞𝙘𝙚.' In the aftermath, we’re left with a difficult choice: to let fear, bitterness, and anger win OR to embrace brokenness, joy, and hope. We strive to choose the latter–only with God’s strength to carry us through. Clive wins. Winnie wins." . It's words like these that you will hear in my most recent interview with @rachelgeorgewrites . In this episode, Rachel opens up about the heartbreak she has experienced over the loss of her children and shares about the process of grieving. We also chat about her newly released book (available now!) that's all about what she has learned about that process. Check out what she has to say about it: ・・・ "My book was born of a struggle to find balance between faith and self-expression in my grief. I believe God created us with wisdom and creativity. When I ignore the truth, I risk becoming lost in my own version of reality, guided by emotions and absorbed in self-expression. I might find myself repeating “I am strong enough” or on an endless search for answers within. Yet, by ignoring my emotions, I risk stifling authentic healing as I conform to expectations of Christian culture. I might accept thoughts such as: “God will never give you more than you can handle.” “True faith cannot be shaken.” “Everything happens for a reason.” Without permission to question or express anger to God, a distant-hearted faith can develop. As I engaged both my heart and mind, I found healing. This book is a product of my grief and mourning. While it’s not comprehensive enough to represent everyone’s different journeys, I believe it can guide you as you process your own grief." . This is such a precious story that I am honored to hold and to share with you. I pray that it's an encouragement that stays with you for years to come. Available on iTunes and Stitcher, check out the link in my bio to listen to the show! . . . #mamagrief #grief #infantloss #griefmama #childloss #hopemommies #hopewriters #hope #miscarriage #rainbowbaby #whathealsyou #creativegrief #faithingrief #griefsupport #captureyourgrief #grievecreatebelieve #indieauthor #griefinspired #griefandloss #griefjourney #childlosssupport

I see a lot of things on Instagram that I'm not sure if I should believe or not, but I did some of my own research and, per what's posted on the CDC's website, this ones actually true. 😕😷 the way we handle factory farming in this world is quite devastating to our planet, to animals, and to us!!! 🐷🌍🚨 This post is from January before the virus had really started it's spread to the rest of the globe, but I still wanted to share it bc it's some food for thought (pun intended) while we're all locked down in our houses. Not saying everyone has to go vegan, but maybe start looking up some meat-free recipes and think about reducing your meat animal consumption! 🍽🤓 Thanks for sharing @plantbasedzerowaste : . Repost @plantbasedzerowaste ・・・ The new killer virus that currently has China on lockdown and medical teams waiting at airport departure gates, originated from Wuhan seafood and wild animal market 🐙 However the corona virus families main carrier is pigs 🐷 . During a visit to the hospital for something very minor, my grandad caught MRSA. He died long before his time because of it 😞 MRSA strains originate from factory pig farms 😔 . These diseases may feel distant, but they spread incredibly fast and are fatal and devastating for so many people💔 . “Unnaturally high concentrations of animals confined indoors in a limited airspace and producing significant quantities of waste allows for the rapid selection, amplification, and dissemination of zoonotic pathogens.” In laymen’s terms, the terrible conditions of factory farming causes diseases! Transmission is not just from eating their bodies either, it’s through water, air and the workers that are in contact with the animals. . Previously unknown diseases are surfacing at a pace unheard of in the recorded annuals of medicine: more than 30 newly identified human pathogens in 30 years, most of them newly discovered zoonotic (animal to human) viruses 😱 . Industrial animal farming is killing billions of animals every year, alongside us and our planet in the process. #stopeatinganimals 🌱 . . . Tags👇🏼

Anyone else still doing their hair and makeup despite the fact that they're working from home just for the accountability of getting out of their pajamas?? It can't just be me! . HEY U.S. FRIENDS 📢 last day to place an order with @redeemedwithpurpose !!! Our super conscious friends over there decided to temporarily close the Etsy shop to protect postal workers in these crazy times. If you've been wanting to order something, now is the time! 🛍🛍🛍 You can still use my code MACKENZIEN20 for 20% off, and if you order $35 worth of merch you can get free shipping. 😍 . It's so important to focus on protecting ourselves and our families right now, but let's not forget that there are still others who need protecting, too. Discrimination is still happening. Homelessness is still happening. Sexual exploitation is still happening. Let's continue to join together in the unknown and be for each other. . Check out @redeemedwithpurpose to see all the cute jewelrys!! . . . #consciousconsumer #consciousconsumerism #consciousshopping #ethicalfashion #ethicaljewelry #handmadejewelry #shophandmade #handmadewithlove #supportsmallbusiness #supportsmallbusinesses #shopsmall #shopsmallbusinesses #purchasewithpurpose #slaverystillexists #endhumantrafficking❌ #endhumantrafficking #stophumantrafficking #endsexualexploitation #endsextrafficking #wearfreedom #whomadeyourclothes #sociallyresponsiblebusiness #sociallyresponsiblefashion #buylesschoosewell #buylessbuybetter #shinealightonslavery #endslavery #modernslavery #shopethical #shopethically

A day late and a 💵 short on my #internationalwomensday post...whoops. But that's bc I'm a busy working lady, a mom, and a partner in crime to my husband, so I'm still posting 'cause that's what this day is all about. One day just isn't long enough to celebrate all the women! 🙌 . It's not about the perfectly timed Instagram post. Actually, #internationalwomensday was started to raise awareness for the lack of equal rights to women around the globe. I'm grateful that I live in a country that has come a long way, but we still have more work to do. Women still don't get paid as much as men do, women still don't move up the ladder as quickly as men do, women still have to deal with harassment in the workplace more than men do. . And that's just here in America! Hundreds of countries around the globe enslave women (and men and children, even) through forced labor. Factory workers throughout the world are trapped in unbearable working conditions hardly making enough to survive on. Their lives are endangered by these conditions when things like fires (New Delhi) and building collapses (Rana Plaza) occur. The sad truth is that the large majority of these people are female garment workers who are making the clothes that so many of us other women end up purchasing. Swipe to see the harsh but real truth that @encircled_ put so well! ➡️😬 . Oh, and speaking of slavery...there's also that disturbing number of humans (again, mostly women) who are being trafficked for sexual exploitation. Ugh!!! When will it end? . Instead of buying a cheap, disposable shirt with a cute feminist saying on it from any old store, why don't you consider supporting your fellow women of the world through some of these ways? 💋learn more about these topics - watch a documentary (The True Cost) or read a book (Girls Like Us) 💋buy used fashion instead of new 💋when you do buy new, make sure you are buying ethical - no sweatshops! 💋try supporting your local, small biz and female-owned sisters! 💋shop @redeemedwithpurpose jewelry to help redeem lives from sex slavery (message me if you want a discount code!) 💋follow accounts like the two I mentioned that are doing awesome work! .
