Everything You Need to Know About Ingredients (Ft. Karalynne Call) Feb 07, 2024

Show notes

Did you know that cleaning products are not required to share all the ingredients they use on their labels? They only need to share the active ingredient. And of the 80,000 potential chemicals that could be used in a product, only 1% have actually been tested for safety.

And so many of the ingredients used in our products today have been found to affect our health.

That’s why reading and understanding labels can be an important skill to learn.

In this episode, Jordan talks with founder and CEO of Just Ingredients, Karalynne Call, about how to identify toxic ingredients in your products, from your food to your feminine care products, and how to make simple and easy swaps that will support your health.

Choosing cleaner products doesn't have to be an extreme all-or-nothing approach. You don't have to overhaul your pantry overnight. Even taking one step at a time and finding healthier swaps can make a big difference in the long run. And Karalynne is just the person to show you how to do it!

Tune in to this episode to learn:

Why it’s important to understand ingredient labels and what kinds of marketing labels may be deceptive or confusing
An easy strategy for interpreting labels and how to find cleaner options
Why so many companies use artificial sweeteners, dyes, and colorants instead of real foods
Ingredients to avoid in feminine products and what to look for instead
Why house cleaners don’t need to list what’s in their product
What endocrine disrupters are, where they are found, and how they affect the body
Safer materials to use for cooking and food storage
How to swap out products in a way that isn’t overwhelming

The Church, Women, and Unplanned Pregnancies (Ft. Amy Ford) Dec 20, 2023

Show notes

So many women who face unplanned pregnancies feel like the church is the last place they can go to for help, whether they are afraid of being judged or they feel there will be no support for them.

While the church may be pro-life and has the power to have a huge impact, there has too often been a lack of practical, spiritual, and emotional support for abortion-vulnerable women.

As today’s guest says, “Pro-life is a stance. Pro-love is an action.”

So how can we as the church empower women with unplanned pregnancies? How can we give real help that allows them to choose life?

That’s what Jordan and podcast guest Amy Ford talk about in this episode.

Amy is the CEO of Embrace Grace, a ministry dedicated to equipping the church to provide support to women experiencing unexpected pregnancies.

Tune in to learn:

Amy’s personal story of facing an unplanned pregnancy and experiencing church hurt
The difference between pro-life and pro-love and why our response needs to be more than a political vote
What abortion statistics can teach us about how to support women walking through unplanned pregnancies
The importance of reshaping our view of birth moms and abortion-vulnerable women
How we can do a better job of supporting women on a practical, spiritual, and emotional level
