Listening to the Future

Gurus, imagine a future where your voice can flag early signs of Parkinson's or PTSD—where your smartwatch data helps build global research—and where you, not the system, own your health data. That future is already unfolding, and today's guest is helping to build it. Meet Mack Stachowiak, CTO of AxonDAO, a pioneer in blending AI, wearable technology, and decentralized science to revolutionize healthcare. From launching telemedicine platforms in the pre-smartphone era to building the Q-Ring wearable that seamlessly tracks thousands of biometrics, Mack is rethinking how data, diagnostics, and access intersect. In this episode, we explore how AI can speed diagnostics, how blockchain empowers patients, and why voice biomarkers might be the most non-invasive—and powerful—tool in early disease detection. If you're curious about the future of patient-owned data, smart algorithms, and tech that listens—literally—you won't want to miss this conversation. Let's dive in!
