Poop 💩 on your shoes?
💥 Hate to break it to you but …
 
… if you wear your shoes out of the house, there’s a good chance there’s poop on them. 💩
 
Even if you never knowingly step in it!
 
Pretty gross. This is why it’s a good idea to think about going shoe-free in your house! (Preferably beginning in your entryway.)
 
Get this: scientists had people wear brand-new shoes for two weeks and then they sampled the shoes for bacteria.
 
The transfer rate of bacteria from shoes to clean tiles ranges from 90% to 99%!!! 😳
 
Other studies have found a wide range of harmful bacteria on shoes, ranging from E. coli and C. diff to those linked with pneumonia … not to mention pesticides and other chemicals.

I have not had this policy in our house, but after discovering this information, I am going to start! I always say, "Know better do better!" Just like I wasn't aware of all the hidden chemicals in my home and personal care products until it was brought to my attention. We don't know what we don't know! 
 
👉Do you have a shoe-free policy in your home? Are you going to start!? Share with me!!

Meet Colleen Riddle

 
I spent much of my life trying to figure out where I fit.

Growing up as the youngest of six, so much younger than my brothers and sisters, I was always just ‘little Colleen’ — tagging along, in the room but not really part of the conversation. My opinion didn’t carry much weight when everyone older had already decided. It wasn’t unkind — it was just the math of being the baby of a big family. But somewhere in all that tagging along, I started believing that belonging was something you had to earn, or wait for, or hope someone remembered to include you in.

That feeling followed me into adulthood more than I realized. Through different seasons of life, careers, challenges, and reinventions, I kept chasing the same thing: a place where my voice actually mattered.

It took years of personal growth to understand how deeply that search had shaped me — and to realize that the thing I’d been looking for my whole life was exactly what I was meant to help others find.
