I have been writing the Making Love Sustainable column for close to two decades. It is kind of like a living, public diary to what it means to me to love, to lose those we love, to be present, to be kind, and to be grateful.
It's that time of year again when we are all faced with finding the perfect gift for someone we love. This year, I've gathered a handful of my very favorite and treasured recommendations that any loved one would appreciate.
Sometimes it's hard to see how our individual choices can impact the biggest issues we are facing – and how our voice can be heard in a world driven by mega, "meta" corporations who control our personal data in ways that we never truly agreed to.
Being single is nothing to be ashamed of and it can even be something to celebrate. November 11 is International Singles Day – the perfect day to celebrate riding solo.
In honor of a healthy and safe environment, we are proud to support Women’s Voices for the Earth, a nonprofit organization that amplifies women’s voices to eliminate the toxic chemicals that harm our health and communities.
It’s that time of year again – the leaves are starting to change color, pumpkin spice is in the air, and the cold weather is peeking around the corner. The season of beach days, shorts, and hot weather is over, and it’s time to head inside and snuggle up by the fireplace.
October is a month of fun fall festivities, but did you know it is also National Kink Month? Although many people see kinks as a taboo subject, they are fairly popular in adult sex life.

Also, about one out of five adults (20%) regularly engage in role-playing and/or bondage and spanking.
They say we are the average of the five people we spend the most time with – suggesting that our chosen community makes us who we are. Who we identify in our day-to-day speaks volumes about how we feel about ourselves and the world we live in.
Amazing things happen when women banded together in friendship to make change. Just think of the national suffragette movement or the powerful groups of women trying to make equality for the sexes a real thing.
We at Good Clean Love have advocated for the use of healthy ingredients in consumer products from our very start in 2003. We know how far-reaching the dangers of toxic chemicals are, and the serious effects they can have on a person’s long-term health and well-being – including their risk of developing cancers.
Breast cancer is easier to treat successfully if it is detected in its early stages, which is why it is so important to perform a moderately regular self-exam either with a doctor or by yourself.
We are proud to donate to Vital Voices’ Afghan Women's Fund this month. Vital Voices is a global partnership investing in women leaders who are solving the world’s greatest challenges – from gender-based violence to the climate crisis, economic inequities, and more.
