In this get-real, fresh-start episode of Coast to the Heart, Andee and Aimee are kicking open the windows and airing out the truth about what’s lurking in your cleaning cabinet. From sneaky VOCs (volatile organic compounds) to those “green” products that aren’t actually green at all, they’re breaking down how to refresh your home — and your habits — without the overwhelm.

Whether you're a clean freak, a clutter bug, or somewhere in between, this episode is packed with practical tips for detoxing your kitchen, laundry room, and cozy corners. The goal isn’t perfection — it’s making safer swaps that fit your real life, one room at a time.

We’re here to help you breathe a little easier (literally) and feel good about the steps you're taking to create a healthier home for the people you love.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why spring cleaning is the perfect time to make low-tox upgrades

• The not-so-fun truth about indoor air quality (spoiler: it’s worse than outside!)

• What VOCs are and how they’re hiding in everyday cleaning products

• Why those “eco” labels might be fooling you

• The power of simple swaps — and where to start

• How to spot safer options using resources like the EWG

• The surprising source of indoor air pollution (we’re looking at you, dryer sheets)

• How to make your home smell amazing without synthetic fragrances

• Why ditching toxins doesn’t have to be all-or-nothing

• Our favorite mantra: progress > perfection, always
