About

Hi there! I’m a mama on a mission to create a brighter and more sustainable world for my children, yours, and the ones we haven't met yet. When I had my first baby, those early days were a blur of sleepless nights, engorged breasts, spit-up, colic, overstimulation, and cries—so many cries. I was overwhelmed by it all, and somewhere in the chaos, I found myself fixating on the sheer stuff that comes with having a baby. The disposable diapers that would outlive me, the tiny clothes she outgrew in weeks, the endless plastic waste from bottles, toys, and gadgets. It wasn’t just postpartum anxiety—it was a growing awareness that this cycle couldn’t continue if I wanted a better world for my kids. 

That’s why I created Poppy and Mango—from clever recycling hacks to creative ways to dispose of everyday items responsibly, this is a space for cultivating mindfulness, reducing waste, and making choices that feel good for us and the planet. 

Whether you’re here for ideas, solidarity, or just a little hope, I’m glad you’re here. Let’s learn, laugh, and lighten our footprint together. We might not save the world overnight, but we can make it a bit brighter, one mindful choice at a time. 🌍💚
