How to Create a Healthy and Hopeful Home

ABOUT

Is your home healthy? It is most certainly clean, but is it healthy? Have you ever stopped to consider that your home is a microbiome, just like your gut?

Join Mrs Martin for this breakfast where the chatter will be about friendly microbes and healthy cleaning. You might be inspired to clean differently. To include your kiddos. To send less plastic to landfill and save more money. And to have hope in the process.

Tickets are free. You will be asked to order a breakfast from the menu at your own cost.

Space is limited, so book now!

Who is Tahnia?

Tahnia Lichtenstein is a software engineer by day, change-maker entrepreneur by moonlight, a greenie by thumb and an earth-champion by heart. She is co-founder of Holisteeq, a sustainable online store for earth-friendly, people-friendly, natural, zero-waste, cruelty-free, toxin-free, healthy products. Tahnia loves combining the old, natural ways of living with new ways of thinking, research and technology, to create a sustainable balance that Is planet-friendly, business-friendly and people-friendly. She has a passion for self-sufficiency, connecting with nature, smart solutions and zero-waste living – after all, taking responsibility is how you take charge of destiny!

And yet, all this needs to fit into a conflicted modern world that prioritizes power, profit and self-enrichment over people and planet. Tahnia believes the way to drive sustainable change in such a world, is to BE the change.

Who is Mrs Martin?

Lize is a South African wife and mother of three. She is also the tester of the soap on the Mrs Martin’s range, and the writer of the blog. When she is not creating content for the soap business, she is helping kiddos develop language, because she is a qualified speech language pathologist.

She says:

I am by nature (and exercise!) frugal. I LOVE saving because it makes me feel efficient. When I spend less than I should, and can do more than I planned, I am thrilled.

This is also the way I approach matters of the environment. I love feeling I send as little waste as possible into nature.

But it cannot cost me a lot. It has to save.

Why? Because I am not living on a homestead filling my day with tasks of survival (oh, the lure of it!).

I am the manager of a normal suburban household with ordinary responsibilities such as keeping the rubbish bin from rotting before rubbish removal day, squashing the pile of dishes… and laundry… and filing… again and again, all the while teaching, training, cleaning and delivering our darling children, producing three meals a day, cordially managing the stream of visitors and delivery men and reps, trying to keep a respectable garden, getting the broken water meter reported, and such.
