Hi there, welcome to Here's your host, Deney Barajona.

Hi there, welcome to episode 150. And last week I re-aired one of my favorite episodes,

which is an interview with the author, Linda Akhosenirk and we're talking about the importance of playing outside in all types of weather.

Now this week I want to follow it up with an important conversation that I had with Carla Haniford, who is a world-renowned biologist.

Carla has spent decades understanding the importance of movement and no surprise she's a huge advocate for outdoor play.

Before we get into today's episode, here's a huge advocate for outdoor play.

Before we get into today's episode, here's a quick word from our sponsor.

The sponsor for today's episode is Branch Basics.

Now Branch Basics is a cleaning company.

Their products are easy to use and they come with refillable bottles.

You just fill up with water and add a little bit of the concentrate

and you're ready to go.

I had a lengthy conversation with all three founders before signing on to do this

sponsorship and I have to say they are absolutely passionate and informed about the

work that they're doing. We've been using these products for a couple months in our house and I've got rid of everything else. I really love them and I believe in them.
