What up, everybody? I'm your host, Max Lugavir.

Welcome back to The Genius Life, a show where we cut through the noise to help you live your healthiest, most vibrant life.

And if you've ever wondered just how safe your home, food, and environment really are,

today's episode is going to blow your mind. My guest is Dr. Ann Shippy. She's not your average doctor. Before becoming a physician, she was a chemical

engineer at IBM, and she brings that systems level precision to medicine. Today, she's a leading

expert in environmental health and functional medicine, and she's helped countless patients

uncover and heal from hidden toxic exposures.

In this episode, we dive into the three big toxic threats that most people don't even realize they're dealing with, mold, pesticides, and PFAS, those so-called forever chemicals.

Dr. Shippy shares her own harrowing brush with mold toxicity, how it nearly derailed her life,

and how she turned that experience into a mission to help others reclaim their health.

We also talk about how environmental toxins may contribute to fertility struggles, children's health, chronic illness,

and why both men and women should think about detoxification well before starting a family,

topics she explores in depth in her powerful new book, The Preconception Revolution. There's a conversation packed with practical insights like how to test your home for mold, what foods are worth buying organic, how to support your body's natural detox pathways, and even the best ways to use tools like glutathione and saunas to give yourself an edge. Listen all the way through to the end, you're not going to want to miss a beat. And as always, don't forget to share this episode with friends and loved ones that you think may benefit from it.

I'm excited to be here. I'm excited to have you. I know a bit about your work. I have looked into

your background, of course, and it's very interesting. It's interesting to say the least.

You've got a background as an engineer. You're a medical doctor, an expert on environmental health. So there's a lot of topics that I know we're going to cover today. But I love to start from 30,000 feet, high level. What would you say are the most dangerous toxins that people are being exposed to today without knowing it? It really goes into several categories. The one that most people

don't realize that they're being exposed to is actually toxic mold. But then the level of
