Show Notes
This week on the pod we sit down with environmental health expert and mama Lindsay Dahl, author of Cleaning House, for a deeply grounding, eye-opening chat about what it really means to create a healthier home without spiraling into perfectionism.
From beauty products to the everyday cleaning staples sitting under your sink, Lindsay walks us through how to make more conscious choices without throwing everything out overnight, and where to actually start so it doesn’t feel overwhelming. We dive into trusted certifications like EWG and MADE SAFE, and how to decode labels so you can feel confident about what you’re bringing into your home and onto your body.
We also explore the idea of micro moments of advocacy, those small, powerful choices that add up over time, and how to balance being informed without becoming overwhelmed. Because there’s a fine line between empowering our kids with knowledge and overloading them with information.

More from The Mother Daze with Sarah Wright Olsen & Teresa Palmer
This week on The Mother Daze, we’re chatting all things toddler WILDNESS! Running away for solo adventures in the wilderness, diving off patios, chucking rocks in mouths, falling, tripping, slipping, sliding, donking and generally causing absolute MAYHEM! Just the basic insanity of having a one-year-old in an already chaotic household full of kids. Funnnn guys funnnn, insanely cute but send help!
This week on The Mother Daze, Tez talks shooting a movie alongside her boys! Whaaa?! The girls chat the magic of sharing the set together, watching our kids follow their passions and the incredible joy of seeing them step into who they’re becoming. Plus, the girls get into some WILD stage parent stories, competitive Pokémon folks, sideline sporting fanatics and the hilarious (and sometimes downright bonkers!) lengths some people go to in perhaps trying to live out their own dreams through their kids! Weeee
This week on The Mother Daze, Teresa is getting ready to return to God of War with a freshly dyed head of hair and a heaping dose of self-care! The girls chat new beauty finds, Teresa’s new at-home facial friend from Shark Beauty, and Sarah shares some of the trusty everyday serums she keeps coming back to.
This week, Sarah’s book is officially OUT and she’s hitting the press tour! Weeeee! Tez talks licking back up on God of War and the separation anxiety that comes with the idea of saying goodbye to her older kids even just for a week.
This week on The Mother Daze, we’re joined by a repeat guest, our friend, Daniel Ahearn! Dan is the author of The Way Back Home, a father of two and an attachment-focused family therapist. Daniel’s work is all about helping parents and teens stay connected through the beautiful, messy and sometimes completely bewildering years of adolescence.
