Dan Huber went from losing nearly everything during the 2008 mortgage crisis to facing another battle entirely when he and his family developed a mysterious collection of health problems that doctors couldn't explain. Dan joins Alexis Artin for a wide-ranging conversation about toxic mold exposure, blue light, EMFs, sleep, mental health, medical self-advocacy, and the hidden environmental factors that may be affecting our well-being. They also explore the growing mental health crisis among young people, Dan's work with Hope Chain and suicide prevention, the importance of human connection in an increasingly AI-driven world, and why giving ourselves more grace, permission, and forgiveness may be essential to navigating modern life. From losing everything to rebuilding his health and turning adversity into service, Dan's story is ultimately about learning to trust yourself, keep going, and use what you've survived to help someone else.
"Congratulations. The expectations others had of you, and more importantly, the negative expectations you had of yourself—you've gotten through all of it. And you're here." — Dan Huber
