After starting his career with British Airways in the UK, Anthony moved to the US and built a diverse background as a professional photographer, web designer, and product developer in sales and marketing for health related products, before dedicating over a decade to hands-on EMF mitigation. Inspired by watching family and friends with significant health challenges find relief through “alternative” tools like red light therapy and EMF reduction when conventional routes fell short, and shaped by his years in pastoral ministry roles in Oregon, Anthony now focuses on educating people about the often ignored “dark side” of modern technology and how simple, decentralized solutions can transform their homes into true healing spaces.Products Related/Mentioned in This EpisodeShop Amy’s curated favorite products for the Holidays (with discounts!): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amyfournier.com/recommended-products/⁠⁠⁠Shop EMFsafe products & use coupon “AMY10” to save 10% on your purchases!https://amyfournier.com/emfsafe/Check Out Amy's Sacral & Heart Guided Video Meditation: ⁠https://amyfournier.com/heart-sacral-meditation/⁠Episodes Related/Mentioned in This Episode:116.
