It wasn't like she disputed my claims, she just seemed to put off the inevitable until one day when she told me that she and her husband wanted to start trying for a baby. It was at this point that she wanted my advice on how to detox her life. She just couldn't live a toxic life for two. And though I strongly advise taking the planet into account without pregnancy, when a mini me is in the picture, it's time to step it up. Before you even start trying to get pregnant considering detoxifying your body and life. I have a friend that I could never seem to get on the green bandwagon.
