| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Nobody Told Me. I'm Laura Owens. And I'm Jan Black. A lot of us would like to have a healthier, more environmentally friendly lifestyle, but we don't know where to start. |
| 0:21.8 | We'd like to eliminate hidden toxins in our lives, but the idea of going completely green seems |
| 0:27.1 | overwhelming. Our guest on this episode, Tanya Harris, can help. Tanya is an award-winning |
| 0:32.5 | environmental toxin specialist who is board certified in holistic nutrition, And Tanya is the author of the new book, |
| 0:39.9 | The Slightly Greener Method. Detoxifying your home is easier, faster, and less expensive than you |
| 0:46.0 | think. Tanya, thank you so much for joining us. Thank you so much for having me. I'm excited to be here. |
| 0:50.9 | I absolutely love the title of your book, The Slightly Greener Method. I thought, oh, okay, I could do that. It's attainable. Yeah, right. Right. It's accessible. Why did you decide to write it? Really, because of my experience, starting back in 2006, when my son started having attention issues, and I, long story short, the school called me in to test him |
| 1:12.2 | possibly for ADHD. And I don't know if it's my past as a childhood leukemia survivor, |

| 1:45.1 | weeks later, and they no longer saw a need to test him. So I was hooked and I'm not judging |
| 1:51.2 | anyone who chooses the medication route. We would have gone down that way. But luckily, |
| 1:54.6 | this had enough of an impact on him that we definitely didn't cure him, but we lessened the |
| 2:00.0 | symptoms enough. |
| 2:05.5 | But then when I really started digging in, I realized, oh, wow, it's not even just what we eat. It's also what we put on our bodies and what we have in our homes that we're breathing |
| 2:10.4 | in. And I started buying products that I thought were natural. And they turned out to be |
| 2:15.0 | anything but. And not only that, I thought I had to go so |
