72. The Surprising Facts About Secondhand Vapor with Stephen Barth



Break Vape Podcast with Tami Ernst | Curiosity: The Second Step Toward a Vape-Free Life

My guest this week believes not only that vaping is dangerous, but that people who vape need to be more mindful about the impact of their habit on the people around them. You might think secondhand vapor isn’t a big issue, like most people accept that second-hand smoke is. However, second and third-hand vapor is a real thing and it could be damaging for your kids, your pets, and anyone who comes near you.


Stephen Barth is the founder of the Tobacco Free in 33 Movement. He’s a professor at the University of Houston, an attorney, and an advocate for creating greater awareness around the dangers of smoking and vaping.


Tune in this week to discover why it isn’t just water coming out of your mouth when you vape. This episode isn’t about being judgmental, but we’re here to promote some mindfulness around the wider impact of your vaping, and show you that it isn’t as harmless as you might think. We’re also discussing why quitting vaping is even harder than quitting smoking, and we’re going deep into the emotional side of breaking your vape habit.

  • Why people often wrongly believe second-hand vapor isn’t harmful.
