In this episode of The Good Life Health Podcast, I dive deep into the world of detoxification—why it's not just a trendy wellness word, but an essential process your body needs to stay healthy in today’s toxin-filled world. I share why I personally go through a cleanse twice a year and how my own mold toxicity journey taught me just how much our environment impacts everything from hormones and brain fog to gut health and fertility.

I break down how your liver detox system works, why some people are more sensitive than others (thanks to dirty genes), and what steps you can take to reduce your toxic burden. Plus, I cover how we help clients in our 90-day program test for and clear mold, heavy metals, and environmental pollutants to finally feel better—for good.
