Health isn’t a straight path—it’s a maze of trial, error, and persistence. For Sandy Martin, the journey from burnout to biohacking enthusiast started with a personal health crisis that challenged everything she thought she knew. Misdiagnosed with a traumatic brain injury, Sandy’s health struggles led her to uncover mold toxicity as the root cause of her symptoms.

In this episode, Sandy opens up about her transformation from facing mold toxicity to embracing biohacking as a way of life. Battling through brain fog to discover the healing power of gongs and functional medicine, her story is an inspiring testament to resilience and curiosity. Tune in to learn how to identify root causes, integrate simple biohacks, and rethink what’s possible for your health.

" If you don't find the root cause, none of it works.  It's just a band-aid. It's just symptom management." ~ Sandy Martin
