    182: Short-Term Fixes vs. Long-Term Solutions

    In today’s mini-sode, I emphasize the importance of focusing on your overall goal—your WHY—behind what you’re doing. It’s easy to get caught up on individual findings in a mold inspection. Sometimes we spend so much time making decisions about those details that we lose sight of the bigger picture, the why that truly matters. This is especially important when quick solutions seem tempting—because, of course, we all want fast turnarounds, especially as parents worried about mold affecting their children. So tune in for practical advice, valuable life lessons on decision-making, and how to stay true to your core motivations. 00:00 Introduction and Episode Overview 00:10 Client's Mold Issue and Immediate Concerns 01:00 Short-term vs Long-term Solutions 02:00 Understanding the Root Cause 04:12 The Iceberg Analogy 05:42 Making the Right Decision for You 09:06 Conclusion IG: @MoldFinders Not sure the best way to get started?
