What’s on the podcast
In this episode of the Green Dreamer Podcast, Matt and Kamea talk about product greenwashing and what to watch out for when you see a product claim to be “100% green”, along with how consumers and homeowners are wanting more control over what goes into their home and are making better buying decisions.

The more educated you are on any topic, the better results you’re going to get—regardless if it’s home improvement or anything else in life. The more research we can do and the more informed we can be, the more decision power we will have.
Matt talks about some home improvement tips that can fit every budget. Even if you're renting or leasing a place, there are still improvements you can do to make your space more comfortable and healthy.
Your home is probably your number one purchase you're going to make in your life, so make sure it counts and that your money is going in the right places.
