The OrganiMama Podcast

In this episode of The OrganiMama Podcast, Kristen sits down with Eric Ritter — the creator behind an affordable, at-home lead testing kit designed to help families protect their homes and their kids. Eric breaks down why lead exposure is still such a big issue today, especially because it often goes completely unnoticed until children begin showing symptoms. They chat about why the old-school swab tests aren’t cutting it anymore and how fluorescent testing offers a much more accurate way to detect lead hiding in your home.
We also dig into the many places lead can be found — from aging paint and plumbing in older homes to unexpected household items you’d never think to question. Eric explains how diet plays a surprising role in how our bodies absorb lead, and why testing regularly is one of the smartest steps parents can take. We touch on the gaps in current regulations, the lack of public awareness, and the long-term impact lead exposure can have on children’s development.
This episode is all about empowering families with proactive, practical tools to keep their homes safer. Tune in to learn how small steps can make a big difference in preventing lead poisoning.

In this episode of The OrganiMama Podcast, Kristen dives into the hidden world of clothing materials and why what you wear matters more than most people realize. From microplastics and synthetic fabrics to the surprising ways plastic-based clothing may impact both our bodies and the environment, this conversation breaks down what’s really hiding in our closets.
Kristen unpacks commonly marketed “healthy” and “eco-friendly” materials — including activewear, bamboo fabrics, and other popular options — and explains where marketing often misses the full picture. She also shares safer, more sustainable alternatives like organic cotton, ethically sourced wool, linen, and properly processed hemp, along with practical tips for shopping for clothing and accessories with less toxic load.
Whether you’re cleaning out your closet, shopping for your family, or simply curious about what your clothes are made of, this episode will leave you feeling more informed and empowered to make choices that better support your health, your home, and the planet.

In this episode of The OrganiMama Podcast, Kristen sits down with Megan McCue to uncover the often-overlooked risks behind one of the most normalized cosmetic procedures today: Botox. What began as a routine injection quickly turned into a life-altering experience when Megan developed iatrogenic botulism — leaving her with debilitating neurological symptoms, difficulty swallowing, intense anxiety, and a long, complicated recovery.
As a speech language pathologist, Megan brings both personal experience and clinical insight to this conversation, helping bridge the gap between how Botox is marketed to women and the reality of what can happen when the body reacts negatively. Kristen and Megan also dive into the cultural pressures driving the demand for cosmetic injections, the lack of true informed consent surrounding Botox, and why women deserve far more transparency when it comes to the products and procedures marketed to them. Through her advocacy work, Megan is now helping others recognize symptoms, ask better questions, and prioritize long-term health over quick cosmetic fixes.

In this episode of The OrganiMama Podcast, we sit down with Mallory Henderson to walk through her powerful journey of health and weight loss transformation, infertility, emotional healing, and reclaiming nourishment — both physically and spiritually. Mallory opens up about years of struggling with her health, the heartbreak of infertility and secondary infertility, and how learning to truly nourish her body became the turning point that changed everything.
Mallory shares how weight loss happened once she began treating her body with kindness, feeding it well, and embracing pro-metabolic principles. But even more striking is her honesty about the emotional work required along the way — from confronting feelings of inadequacy to reframing her identity as a mother. She reminds listeners that nourishment is far more than what’s on your plate; it’s also about self-worth, grace, and the healing that happens when you stop punishing yourself and start listening to your body.
Throughout the conversation, Mallory highlights the importance of community, accountability, and the small daily habits — like meal prepping — that have radically simplified life for her family. She encourages women to celebrate life and motherhood in all its forms while giving themselves permission to grow at their own pace.

In this episode of The OrganiMama Podcast, Kristen shares the story of her third birth—a fast, intense labor that progressed quicker than expected and required full trust in her body.
She walks through the mental and physical differences of a third labor, what caught her off guard, and how preparation (both practical and emotional) shaped the outcome. Whether you’re preparing for your first birth or curious about how each labor can be wildly different, this episode is a reminder that birth doesn’t always follow a plan—but your body knows exactly what it’s doing.
