Justin Liberman | Revitalize Your Air Quality with Jaspr Air Scrubbers
Justin, Jaspr’s Experience Coordinator, brings over eight years of hands-on experience in environmental and air quality analysis. He started his career at Air Quality Canada, where he tested the air in more than 3,000 homes—giving him a front-row seat to the invisible issues affecting people’s health every day. With a background in environmental science and a deep commitment to healthy living, Justin became an expert at identifying indoor contaminants like mold, VOCs, dust, and chemical pollutants, often uncovering the hidden environmental triggers behind symptoms like fatigue, rashes, and breathing problems. At Jaspr, he’s now able to go beyond the diagnosis and offer real solutions—helping people take immediate action to clean up their air. From catching dangerously high VOC levels in family homes to uncovering mold that halted real estate deals, Justin’s experience bridges the gap between environmental health and everyday well-being.

Justine Grasl | Fascia, Tongue Ties, and Heavy Metals: How Stored Toxins Rewire Your Structure
Justine Grasl is a mineral nutritional balancing and holistic health practitioner who helps women and mothers restore balance by working with their bodies — instead of against them. Born depleted and heavy-metal toxic, she spent much of her childhood in chronic mental and physical discomfort. After a severe health crash in her early twenties and years of trying to push, force, and control healing, she learned that true progress often comes from stepping back and loosening our grip. Today, Justine teaches a gentler, feminine approach to mineral balancing that looks beyond supplements to the bigger picture of life — stress, nourishment, environment, and rest. Her work centers on helping women rebuild their own foundations while setting up their children for lifelong success — so the next generation can begin life healthier and more resilient than we did.

Dr Robert Selig | Breaking Down Calcium and Calcification
Dr. Robert Selig is a functional medicine practitioner, hair tissue mineral analysis expert, and owner of Back To Natural Health in the Lincoln Park neighborhood of Chicago.
He offers personalized natural healthcare packages for both local and remote patients to address and help prevent the chronic illnesses plaguing our society like adrenal exhaustion and copper toxicity—widely unknown epidemics affecting over 80% of our population.
After 30+ years of experience and research in the natural health field and learning how to cure his own adrenal exhaustion and copper toxicity, he offers adult and child patients individualized care plans tailored around their biochemistry using revolutionary new tests like HTMA rather than typical blood tests which don’t provide the important cellular information needed to get healthy.
He offers one-on-one guidance to address the root cause of a patient’s health condition using mineral balancing, nutritional strategies, detoxification protocols, homeopathy, energy healing, and functional medicine.
His goal is to help you approach life without pharmaceutical drugs that cause mineral imbalance, to avoid future invasive surgeries, and to reverse engineer the aging process.
Dr. Selig teaches patients both the art and science of natural healing to restore energy, strength, and vitality and make living an exciting new journey rather than debilitating and insufferable.
Patients can expect increased energy and hormone levels, less brain fog and chronic infections, natural weight management, and full body healing using the most efficient, time-tested, and effective therapies and methods.

Charles MayField | Lard Lessons: Farrow’s Regenerative Beauty Products
Charles Mayfield is an entrepreneur, regenerative farmer, and bestselling author known for his work at the intersection of sustainable agriculture and natural skincare. As the founder and CEO of Farrow Skincare, a Tennessee-based company launched in 2022, he pioneered the use of "SmartLard"—a chemical-free, waterless balm derived from pasture-raised animal fats—to create toxin-free products that nourish the skin microbiome. Drawing from his background in regenerative farming through Mayfield Pastures, where he raised high-quality, pasture-based meats, Mayfield's venture was sparked by a personal battle with severe sunburn and a passion for real, unprocessed ingredients. A co-author of the Paleo Comfort Foods cookbook series, he balances his role as a father with advocacy for land stewardship, ethical animal husbandry, and consumer transparency in the beauty industry. Under his leadership, Farrow has gained traction through podcast appearances and organic growth, aiming for scalable, eco-conscious expansion while supporting artisanal farms committed to soil health and community nutrition.
