Have you ever felt super passionate about making a change for people or planet in the low tox sphere, only for it to land like a lead brick with your kids, partner, family or friends?Maybe you’ve joined the groups, watched the documentaries, read the books and you can’t understand why people aren’t excited to come along the ride with you… Maybe you’re struggling to make a positive case for change… Maybe your family members think you’re a hippy who’s overreacting, or an annoying parent or a partner just wanting to buy lots of things we don’t need, or someone trying to make everyone do more in an already busy day or someone making up problems when you could just paint over it (hellooooo the mould remediation discussion!).  Whatever it is, this week’s show, I tackle the first 10 of 20 of the most common objections from family members across body, food and home topics, as well as talking about the best ways to encourage people around you to get on board whatever changes you know would benefit you all. The next 10 will be in Part 2 soon. The 10 situations in Part 1 are:Kids with friends obsessed with a certain drink bottleA teen in the cool gang and the gang are starting to vape or use synthetic fragrance sprays. Little Kid starting to get fussy about food once they see how/what other kids eatToday is about creating low toxic unity, not ‘annoying overreactor division’ as it often goes down. Has this been you?  I’d love to hear what you struggle with sometimes in getting people around you to see why it matters not just to you, but to them as well.
