In this episode of the Smarter Not Harder Podcast, Grace Hawkins joins Jodi Duval to share her inspiring journey from medical misdiagnosis to becoming a personalized health mentor. With a background in naturopathy and clinical diagnostics, Grace blends DNA, blood chemistry, and HTMA testing to help her clients uncover the root causes of dysfunction and reclaim agency in their health journey.
From endometriosis and burnout to lab interpretation and emotional patterns, this episode is a roadmap for how to think critically, test wisely, and personalize healing in a system that often fails to see the whole picture.
Join us as we explore:
• Grace’s approach to personalized testing: DNA, HTMA & blood
• Emotional patterns, heavy metals & how HTMA reveals hidden
stories
• How to empower clients with data and narrative — not just
prescriptions
• The future of health mentorship and integrative practitioner
models
This episode is for you if:
• You’ve been told “your labs are normal” — but you still don’t
feel right
• You’re curious about DNA or hair mineral testing but don’t know
where to start
• You’re a clinician seeking a smarter approach to functional
workups
• You believe healing means slow
medicine — not just instant fixes
