About this Blog  

I started this blog in November 2010 to serve as the website for Olivia Cleans Green, my former residential cleaning and organizing service.

Today, I use this blog as a vehicle for sharing practical tips for positively joyful sustainable and healthy living inspired by my everyday adventures.

Here you'll still find plenty of posts about green cleaning and homekeeping (of course!) but also mind, body, and spirit wellness; creative living; DIY projects featuring herbs, essential oils, and up-cycled fabric; and even a little vintage & thrifted style.



About Me


I am a native New Yorker living a charmed life with my web developer husband Richard and our two cats, Lucy and Patrick, in Hastings on Hudson, a beautiful rivertown just outside of NYC. I was trained as a Health Coach at Institute for Integrative Nutrition. I have a BA in Writing from Hunter College where I also minored in Studio Art.

Spirituality is a huge and wonderful part of my life. I practice Nichiren Buddhism with SGI, an organization striving for world happiness by spreading the Lotus Sutra. We believe each person has the power to overcome all of life's challenges, to live a life of value, and become a positive influence in their community, society, and the world. My faith motivates me to use my unique gifts to inspire and help others reclaim their power.

In addition to all the stuff I write about here, my hobbies include hugging, knitting, drawing, reading thrillers, performing improv, and daydreaming. I love to exercise. Running outdoors is my favorite but barre and Pilates are also pretty awesome.

In case you're wondering: My maiden name is Lane, hence all my social media stuff using that name. I got married on August 9, 2014. (Best day ever!)
