In this episode of the Smarter Not Harder Podcast, Bob Troia explores what it means to truly understand yourself through data. With decades of experience in both tech and personal science, Bob shares his journey from building early web innovations to becoming a leader in the quantified self and biohacking space. As the co-founder of Awesome Labs and SuppTrack, Bob discusses how his personal experiments with sleep, glucose, HRV, and nootropics like methylene blue have inspired tools that help others optimize their lives. From spreadsheets to app development, Bob shows how self-tracking can be both a personal evolution and a public service.
