Asthma can feel unpredictable, especially when symptoms strike without warning. In this episode, I share how understanding the “stacking” of triggers can help you predict and prevent asthma attacks before they happen. From environmental factors like air quality and cold weather, to diet, sickness, stress, poor sleep, and dehydration, I break down the main factors that affect my asthma and how I manage them.

You’ll learn how multiple triggers combine to create attacks and how creating awareness can give you more control over your condition. This approach doesn’t replace medical advice, but it empowers you to make choices that reduce risk and support your health.
