Andi a 42-year-old Holistic Wellness Practitioner. She is passionate about helping women find their happiness!
Let's start here: between the ages of 14 and now, she was diagnosed with what she refers to as autoimmune mayhem (MS, SLE, RA, POTS, Fibro ). "Every day, there is something going haywire in my body & it's always an adventure to figure out which system is causing it."
"My life changed on March 10, 2020, when I suffered a sudden cardiac arrest at work. (I was out for 34 mins)
Recovery taught me that prior to the "incident," I was "too busy" actually to enjoy life. I wasn't making memories filled with belly laughs and true bonds. I was afraid to tell my story because I didn't want to hear the fan fav "you don't look sick." "
Today, she is grateful for the storm because now it allows her to truly admire every rainbow š

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
