About Meghan

It’s been on my heart to share with you ladies more about what I do!

I thought it would be fun to introduce myself and share what my toxin free journey has looked liked; How our Mindful Mommy Community evolved over the years and all the blessings that I’ve experienced since joining the Clean Beauty Movement.

 

I am a chiro wife and a crunchy mama to three wild littles. Having 3 under the age of 4 has kept us busy!

Since Mindful Mommy, I now have the blessing of being home with my babies while doing something that I absolutely LOVE! My days are filled with a lot of scooter rides, stroller walks, trips to the park, arts & crafts, learning and exploring.. with a few toddler meltdowns in between (well maybe a lot of meltdowns 🥴)


In between mom life I get to connect with women from all over the country and empower them to be their own advocate and to be mindful of the products they bring into their home.

But let’s back up and see what led me to where I am today..

I met my incredible husband at a restaurant while we were working our way through college. He says it was love at first sight. It may have taken me a little more time to get there😂 but I can honestly say now he is the BEST thing that has ever happened to me (apart from the Lord).

I was finishing my degree in Speech Pathology.

I graduated, got married and the day after our honeymoon I packed up and left NJ and everything I knew to move down to Atlanta GA for 4 years where Michael would get his Doctorate in Chiropractic.

It was during that time that my health journey really began. As I learned more about Chiropractic, I fell in love with it and decided not to pursue Speech Pathology and instead fully invested in opening a chiropractic office with Michael. So we went from serving tables together to serving our community together. What a blessing to be able to work with your spouse everyday and be on the same mission!
 
 
I grew up completely differently than the way I live now. We definitely weren’t a “crunchy” family. I ate the standard American kid diet. When I got sick (which was often) we’d run to the doctors. Taking medication and antibiotics was no big deal. We just didn’t know there was a better way at the time!


It wasn’t until I was 21 and experienced life-changing results from chiropractic care that I had a lightbulb moment.

I started to realize I was in control of my health.

 
 
That health and healing comes from WITHIN. That what I put in, on and around my body mattered.

So I started making changes in our home. I think our first change was getting rid of the microwave.. then plastic. Then I started cleaning up our diet, eating organic, eliminating processed foods, dairy and gluten.
 
I started reading labels.. it started with food but then I realized what we put ON our bodies is just as important so I started swapping out our personal care products.
We found out we were pregnant!! That’s when I started getting very picky with our labels. I had another life depending on me now.

I trashed everything overnight! Michael thought I was a little nuts. I fell in love with learning and reading labels. I loved finding safe swaps! I finally overhauled everything in our home and it felt SO good!

But there was ONE thing I was missing, and that was my makeup. It was better than drug store brands so I allowed myself to believe that was “good enough.” But I was pregnant, breastfeeding and cuddling my baby, so I decided it couldn’t be “good enough.”
 
I knew better and I had to DO better.  I knew it only took 30 seconds for the chemicals from my makeup to be absorbed into my skin and into my bloodstream. I knew those toxins were not just effecting me, but also my baby.

 

 
 

So after looking into almost every safe makeup brand, what I found was there are 3 categories..

 
 
1. The toxic drugstore brands that we all KNOW are harmful.
2. Then there’s the sneaky greenwashing brands that LOOK safe but the ingredient list tells a different story.
3. Then there are the safe brands. The label is clean but it seriously lacks performance. We’ve all tried those ones.. so frustrating!

Well then I found Crunchi and realized they truly stand alone! I finally found something that performed AND was clean! I couldn’t believe that this high performing makeup was actually good for my skin.. and I still can’t believe it every time I put it on! So I started switching over my makeup and telling all my friends about it.

I found myself making toxin free product recommendations all the time and reading labels for friends so I decided it was time to do something. I wanted to help women go through the same toxin free journey that I did. I wanted to help them make the overwhelming transition easier.

I felt called to join the Crunchi Movement and bring awareness to the lack of regulation in the cosmetic industry.

So we prayed about it and I took a leap of faith, joined the movement and created the facebook community, Mindful Mommy, with the sole focus on educating women!

It started as a hobby. I wanted something separate for myself outside of our chiropractic practice and motherhood. Something that fed my passion and made me feel a part of something bigger. I wanted to make a difference on a larger scale.

I had no clue what to expect but I figured if at the very least I could get my favorite products discounted, then it was a win-win!

But Mindful Mommy quickly grew and word spread because of YOU all. I finally found my tribe of likeminded women who felt just as passionate as I did about toxin free living!


More and more women were detoxing their makeup and falling in love with Crunchi just like I did!!

With absolutely ZERO sales or business experience and just an undeniable PASSION to educate and share, I somehow advanced to leadership within months and was awarded among the top 10 in our company my first year! With not a clue how to run a business through social media, to be completely honest, it quickly became a successful business that supports my family.
Along my journey of launching Mindful Mommy, educating on safe solutions, and nerding out over ingredient research… I’ve had the immense blessing of linking arms with other women to further this movement and now lead a team of 300 amazing women!


Just average (but extraordinary) women..

 
• Some with a college degree, some without..
• Some with sales experience, but the majority without..
• Stay at home moms and full time working women..
• Toxin free experts and complete newbies..
Women from all walks of life but with the same mission.

And gosh has it been an absolute joy to partner with these women and watch them live out their own purpose, achieve their own success and see their family’s lives change forever!

I am thankful for the life journey that has brought me HERE where I can use this platform to share more about how partnering with Crunchi could abundantly bless YOUR life too!❤


It’s an honor and blessing to be YOUR Green Beauty advocate and to be on this toxin free journey with all of you!
