Smart, Green, or Healthy: Understanding the True Impact of Your Home Environment
Manage episode 491213377 series 3591239
We explore the crucial differences between smart, green, and healthy homes, clarifying common misconceptions and revealing how each impacts your wellbeing in different ways. This foundation-setting episode kicks off Season 2 with insights into the booming wellness real estate market and why understanding these distinctions matters for your health.
• Smart homes prioritize convenience and connectivity but aren't automatically healthy due to increased EMF exposure
• Green homes focus on energy efficiency and environmental impact but can create issues like poor ventilation when sealed too tightly
• Healthy homes are specifically designed with human biology in mind, supporting sleep, air quality, and reducing toxin exposure
• The wellness real estate market has grown to $584 billion globally and is projected to reach $1.1 trillion by 2029
• Many chronic health issues may be connected to home environments, not just diet and lifestyle
• Season 2 will cover building science, EMF remediation, non-toxic design, family wellness, and navigating new construction
• Holly has transitioned from health coaching to full-time real estate, focusing on the intersection of homes and wellness
