In this episode, Andrea shares about the profound loss of her young husband to brain cancer in 2002 and how it reshaped her life. As a new mother navigating grief, she found herself on an unexpected path—one that led to a deep passion for functional nutrition and using food as medicine. What began as a personal search for healing became a calling to help others, changing the course of her career and life.
Now a Functional Medicine Nutritionist, educator, and former CEO of Functional Nutrition Alliance, Andrea has guided countless individuals and trained thousands of practitioners in root-cause methodology and systems biology. In this heartfelt conversation, she shares how loss, motherhood, and purpose intersected to shape her work and how she now empowers others to take control of their health.
