Madeleine realized it’s not always easy to be eco-friendly, shop ethically and sustainably, reduce your waste, shop locally, etc. when you’re a busy working mom. So it got her thinking: Is it possible to live sustainably while raising children? Does it stress women out? What are some of the biggest challenges women raising kids face when it comes to sustainable living? A conversation not to miss!
