1200. What Your Water Isn’t Telling You + Why EWG Says It’s CRUCIAL to Fix it FAST!



Hello Heal Squad! Today, Maria sits down with two major forces behind the Environmental Working Group …aka EWG: Ken Cook, President and Co-Founder, and Jocelyn Lyle, Executive VP of Mission & Partnerships. If you’ve ever wondered what’s really in your products, this is the episode you’ve been waiting for. Maria first learned about EWG from Jenny McCarthy, and it’s been her gold standard in clean and safe ever since. But today isn’t just about clean mascara or safer lotion… it’s about something far bigger: the hidden toxins in our everyday routines…like drinking water! Ken and Jocelyn are here to break down how we can fix it and uncover how dangerous chemicals sneak into personal care and household products. They also share how EWG is helping all of us, from busy parents to conscious consumers make smarter, safer choices without feeling overwhelmed. If you’re stepping into 2026 with a mission to protect your health, clean up your routine, or finally understand what’s actually going on your body (and in your water), this conversation will change how you shop, how you think, and how you care for yourself from head to toe.


HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS: 

  • Legal” does not mean safe : U.S. regulations for cosmetics and water are decades behind scientific research, which means harmful chemicals can be completely legal yet still linked to health problems.
  • Your water likely contains multiple contaminants: Between PFAS, agricultural runoff, industrial chemicals, and aging infrastructure, water across the country includes contaminants that treatment systems can’t fully remove.
  • Hidden toxins are everywhere, and companies don’t always disclose them.
