This week, Tee sits down with Dr. Beverly Jensen for a powerful conversation on the often-overlooked impact of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) on our health, homes, and especially our children.
Dr. Beverly brings a rare blend of academic rigor, international experience, and lived wisdom. Her early career included writing on health, nutrition, and environmental education for Woman’s Day, Teacher, and McGraw-Hill. She later earned her doctorate in international communication from the University of Washington and went on to build a global career spanning Egypt, the Czech Republic, and the UAE.
From launching a nationally adopted noise-abatement campaign in Egypt to managing a World Bank–backed Heart Association project in the Czech Republic, Dr. Jensen has spent decades at the intersection of public health, communication, and advocacy. She also co-managed a Johns Hopkins–affiliated health promotion program in the UAE, helping shape initiatives later adopted by the Abu Dhabi Health Authority.
In this episode, Tee and Dr. Jensen explore how
everyday EMF exposure from cell phones to household appliances can
affect daily life and childhood development. Dr. Jensen shares her
personal journey into EMF awareness, practical steps families can
take to reduce exposure, and why public education and legislative
involvement are urgently needed. The conversation also highlights
the vital role mothers play in advocating for children’s long-term
health.
