#91 Conversations with Sandahl Taylor

My name is Sandahl Taylor, I am an army veterans spouse. Mom of 2
beautiful children one of which is diagnosed with odd and spmd. And
in 2005 My father suffered from a heart attack that changed my life
forever. In addition to moving at an awkward age from where I grew
up and had friends to an area that I knew no one.To surviving a
previous relationship that was filled with a partner that had
Substance addiction, But was also physically and mentally abusive.
Finally finding my night in camouflage armor and successfully
getting through a deployment. I have spent the last 19 years being
an advocate for #showusyourheart, Which is my platform in
pageantry. I focus on mind, body, and soul and in addition to this
I have been advocating for mental health rights for 7 years since
my son's diagnosis at the age of 5. And last but not least I'm
highly involved in my community. Over the past 10 years I have
given free haircuts to veterans, local shelters and those and mean
and I am currently trying to fund my non profit so I can even do
more. Platform: My platform is #showusyourheart and it focus on
heart health. In 2005 my father suffered a heart attack and stroke
that left him paralyzed. So, in turn the past 15 years my platform
has been Heart health awareness. In October of 2020 my father
passed away from complications due to covid-19 and underlying heart
conditions. To honor his memory and having to stay at home , I
decided to launch an ongoing social media campaign
#showusyourheart. The aim is to help people all across the world
reduce their risk for heart disease, by showcasing easy ways to
become heart healthy. For more information on #showusyourheart, Or
