"Common Ground is an important new documentary film featuring Laura Dern, Jason Momoa, Woody Harrelson, Ian Somerhalder, Donald Glover, Rosario Dawson, Mark Hyman, Gabe Brown, and many others. Directed by Josh and Rebecca Tickell, Common Ground provides hope for future generations with concrete ways to fix a broken planetary system. The film explores how regenerative agriculture can help heal the soil, our health and the planet."
Join the Global Watch Party on Amazon Prime for both Kiss The Ground and Common Ground this Earth Day, April 22, 2025.
Note from me: We talk a lot about regenerative agriculture and that we are blessed to be able to have access to any of it. That shouldn't be the case. It should be the NORM! There are solutions, we just have to be intentional about supporting them.
Join me in watching the premier of Common Ground (and Kiss The Ground if you haven't seen it yet) and reach out on Instagram to let me know!

Greenwashing is a marketing trend that companies use to trick the consumer into thinking that their products meet specifications that a more conscientious consumer is looking for.
This is done with text and images that make the consumer believe that the product is somehow better for the environment and/or better for the health of the animal (humans included) eat or using it.
As someone who is making products for pets to consume, Lauren provides her unique understanding of how this works in the industry.

Dr. Ruth Roberts has been educating veterinarians and holistic pet health coaches on the risks associated with spaying and neutering dogs.

Before you choose to spay or neuter your next dog, please take a moment to listen to this episode!
