Aubree Felderhoff | Mold Illness Recovery Specialist · Toxic Mold Detox Expert

***TOP 1.5% GLOBALLY RANKED PODCAST*** Have you been sick for months or even years with no real diagnosis? Have doctors told you it's stress, anxiety, or "all in your head"—but you know deep down something is really wrong? Have you spent thousands on tests, supplements, and specialists, done "all the right things" and yet still feel terrible? Have you wondered if mold could be behind it all—but figuring out where to even start feels completely overwhelming? 🩷 I'm Aubree Felderhoff. I asked myself these same questions for twelve years. I saw over 30 doctors. I spent more than $250,000 searching for answers. I finally discovered mold was behind everything—and thought the nightmare was about to end.

It took years of wrong turns, wasted money, and dead-end treatments before I found what actually works. Not symptom management. Not lifelong protocols. Real healing with an end date. Now I help families skip the nightmare my family lived through. This podcast is the roadmap I wish someone had handed me when I was desperate, dismissed, and losing hope. I'll teach you how to figure out if mold is actually your problem, which tests are worth your money, how to find and fix mold without getting scammed, and how to heal—for real—so you can move on with your life.

    90 | Taking Binders and Still Sick? What Actually Heals Mold Illness with Dr. Andrew Campbell

    Mold illness gets misdiagnosed as chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, chronic Lyme, MS, and autoimmune disease. In this conversation, Dr. Andrew W. Campbell explains why so much of the popular mold testing and detox advice has no published research behind it, and what he has actually used to get thousands of patients well. Dr. Campbell is a huge part of my own healing story, so this one meant a lot to me. He has spent more than 45 years treating people made sick by mold, mycotoxins, Lyme, pesticides, and industrial chemicals. He walks through why he trusts blood serum testing, what he does with patients who react to everything, and why the first move is never a supplement. If you have done the protocols, spent the money, and you are still sick, this is the episode. Key Takeaways: Why he says urine testing keeps giving almost everyone the same answer, and what those numbers are actually measuringThe three things a blood serum test tells you that a urine test cannot, including whether the exposure is happening right nowHis take on binders, and the one question he asks anyone who recommends themWhat he does first with a patient who cannot tolerate anything, and why it means taking things away instead of adding themThe mycotoxin behind early puberty, PCOS, and unexplained infertility, and why he thinks fertility clinics are missing it Questions this episode answers: What is the most accurate test for mold and mycotoxins? Dr. Campbell uses blood serum testing through MyMycoLabs. It measures how much of 14 mycotoxins is in your body right now, whether the exposure is current or past, and whether mast cell activation is happening. Why did my urine mycotoxin test come back negative when I am living in mold? Urine testing measures what your body has already excreted, and many mycotoxins bind tightly to albumin in the blood and are never released in urine. A negative result does not mean you are not sick. Do binders work for mold detox? Dr. Campbell says the human research is not there. The studies showing binder effectiveness were done in animals, and he asks anyone recommending them to produce a published human study. Can mold cause infertility, PCOS, or early puberty? Yes. Zearalenone is a highly estrogenic mycotoxin linked to precocious puberty in girls, PCOS, pregnancy complications, and reduced testosterone in men. What is the first step in recovering from mold exposure? Remove the person from the toxin or the toxin from the person. No treatment works while you are still breathing it in every day.

    89 | 3 Mistakes I Made in My Mold Illness Journey That Cost Me Years. Are You Doing One?

    I spent seven years collecting diagnoses before anyone ever said the word mold to me. Hashimoto's, endometriosis, adrenal dysfunction, a scare with a tumor on my pituitary gland. Every specialist had an explanation for a piece of it, and not one of them asked why a healthy woman in her twenties suddenly fell apart. If your mystery symptoms keep multiplying no matter how many doctors you see, I want to walk you through what I wish someone had walked me through back then. I'm pulling from my own seven year mess of a health history and from the discovery calls I do almost every week with people who sound exactly like I did, to break down the three mistakes that keep people stuck wondering if mold illness is really their problem. If you've ever sat across from a doctor with a binder of symptoms and felt that flicker of "maybe it really is just me," this episode is for you. Key Takeaways: The diagnosis pattern that had me convinced I was the "incurable case," and why it had nothing to do with my willpowerWhy I tested negative on urine mycotoxin testing over and over, and what that result actually meantThe genetic explanation I was given for why my body couldn't detox mold, and why it fell apart the moment I looked at my own childhoodThe one test I now tell clients to start with before they spend another dollar on treatmentWhy a "clean" inspection report based on an air sample alone can be dangerously misleading Questions this episode answers: How do I know if mold is causing my mystery symptoms? Start with the right lab testing rather than guessing from symptoms alone. Blood serum antibody testing for mycotoxins shows both current exposure and total toxin load, which symptom lists and other diagnoses cannot tell you. Is urine mycotoxin testing accurate for mold illness? Urine testing can miss mold toxicity entirely, including in people who are highly symptomatic, because a negative result can mean either no exposure or a body too burdened to detox and excrete mycotoxins. Should I test my home or my body first for mold? Test your body first. Environmental testing is more expensive and easy to get wrong, and a negative home inspection does not rule out mold illness if the wrong method was used. Can an air sample mold test be wrong? Yes. An air sample only captures a snapshot of one moment in one room, and something as small as an open door can change the reading entirely, so it should never be the sole basis for ruling mold in or out. If you take one thing from today, let it be this. You are not broken, and you are not too complicated to heal. You just need the right next step, and that starts with real answers instead of more guessing.

    88 | Exhausted? The 3 Types of Fatigue Quietly Hiding Behind Chronic Illness with Michelle McCoy

    If you've left your mold exposure behind but still can't shake the exhaustion, this episode is going to explain why. Mold recovery isn't just about clean air. It's about a body that's been through trauma and hasn't finished healing yet. I sat down with Michelle McCoy, a board certified holistic functional health coach and high functioning fatigue expert, to talk about something I wish I'd understood years into my own mold journey. We dig into the three types of fatigue she sees over and over in the women she works with, why standard lab work so often comes back "normal" when you feel anything but, and a simple practice you can use in the middle of a hard day to calm your body back down. Key Takeaways The three types of fatigue Michelle sees again and again, and why one of them is quietly the most dangerous of allWhy your labs can say you're fine while your body is telling you a completely different storyThe vitamin D number your doctor calls normal, and the number that actually supports healingA two minute reset you can do standing sitting in your carWhy leaving a moldy home doesn't mean your body has caught up yet Questions this episode answers What are the three types of fatigue? Michelle McCoy points to physical, mental and emotional, and spiritual fatigue, and explains why spiritual fatigue can be the most dangerous because it pulls you away from your sense of identity and faith. Why do I still feel exhausted after leaving a mold exposure? Mycotoxins get stored in the body's tissue, so your system keeps responding to that exposure even after you're breathing clean air, which is why recovery often takes longer than people expect. Can normal blood work miss mold illness? Yes. Standard panels are built around ranges drawn from sick populations, so a functional lens often catches deficiencies and patterns a conventional read would call unremarkable. What vitamin D level is actually optimal? A level of 30 reads as normal on a conventional lab, but a functional range looks for 60 to 80, especially if you're dealing with fatigue and brain fog. What is a simple way to reset your nervous system during a hard day? "Pause on purpose," a short practice of stepping away, breathing deeply from the belly, and letting your body settle before you go back to what you were doing.

    87 | Mold, Hormones, Miscarriage, and Infertility Answers Your Doctor Missed with Bekah Yawn

    What if the missing piece in your fertility story isn't your hormones at all, but the mold quietly throwing them off? Mold toxicity does not just steal your energy and cloud your brain. It can reach into your hormones, your cycle, and your ability to carry a baby. In this episode I sit down with my friend Bekah Yawn, a fertility awareness educator and hormone coach who walks women and couples through miscarriage, infertility, and the confusion of a body that suddenly stops cooperating. She brings both the science and a faith-based heart, and what she shares about the hidden link between mold exposure and fertility is something so many families never hear. After losing three babies and getting almost no answers from her OB, Bekah learned to read her own cycle, discovered mold in her system, and slowly watched her charts tell the story of her healing. We talk about why mold sits at the deepest root of so many hormone problems, how it can drive estrogen dominance, and why your monthly cycle might be one of the most honest health reports you own. Key Takeaways Why mold can be one of the deepest root causes hiding under thyroid, gut, liver, and hormone strugglesThe reason your cycle can act like a monthly lab report, showing whether your body has healed or is still fightingHow mold and other toxins quietly push the body toward estrogen dominance, and what that means for pregnancyWhat really happens at implantation, and why inflamed, toxic tissue makes it so hard for a baby to hold onThe overlooked reason fertility can suddenly unravel after one, two, or three healthy pregnanciesThe one wise step Bekah begs every woman to take before trying to conceive again Questions this episode answers Can mold exposure cause infertility or miscarriage? Yes. Mold is deeply inflammatory and disrupts the entire endocrine system, and that inflammation can play a real role in infertility, miscarriage, and difficulty holding a pregnancy. How does mold affect hormones? Mold releases toxins that act like synthetic estrogens, called xenoestrogens, which can push the body toward estrogen dominance and throw off the whole chain, from estrogen to ovulation to progesterone. Can cycle tracking tell me if I am healing from mold? It can. Once your chart looks healthy across every phase, that is your body telling you your hormones are healthy and deep healing has happened. Why did my fertility change after healthy pregnancies? Pregnancy, birth, and postpartum ask a lot from your body. Environmental toxins like mold, unstabilized hormones, and stress can all set off miscarriage or trouble conceiving.

    86 | Are You Accidentally Growing Mold in Your Own Home? with Harmony Brownwood & Aaron Cantu

    The mold that makes families sick is usually the mold you never see. It hides inside walls, in the HVAC system, and under flooring, quietly feeding on a slow leak nobody knew was there. In this episode I sit down with two people I trust on the environmental side of mold recovery, Harmony Brownwood and Aaron Cantu of Greenworks Inspections, Engineering and Environmental, to pull back the curtain on why so many mold problems get missed. If an inspector has ever told you everything looked fine while you still had symptoms or a faint musty smell, this conversation is for you. I lived 12 years of mold toxicity before I understood how much the home itself was driving my illness. Harmony and Aaron break down the building science in plain language and show why finding the source of the moisture matters as much as finding the mold. Key Takeaways: Why the worst mold is almost always hidden, and the first spots inspectors checkThe small dripping pipe outside your window that is really an alarm bell most homeowners ignoreHow your air conditioner controls humidity, and what happens to your home when it stopsThe surprising ways families accidentally grow mold, from set-it-and-forget-it gadgets to a corner of houseplantsThe beautiful renovated home that passed its first mold test, and the tiny living clue that revealed a wall soaked to the atticWhy the money you spend preventing mold is the investment you never see pay off Questions this episode answers: Why can't I see or smell the mold in my house? Most serious mold grows where you never look, inside walls, under flooring, and in the HVAC system, so it can stay hidden for years. What actually causes mold to grow in a home? Mold cannot grow without moisture, usually from a plumbing leak, roof leak, or HVAC problem, and in warm climates the HVAC system is the most common culprit. Can my air conditioner cause mold? Yes, your HVAC system is meant to keep humidity below the level mold needs, so when it backs up or runs poorly it creates the damp conditions mold loves. Do I really need a mold inspection before I buy or renovate a home? It is one of the smartest preventative steps a family can take, catching hidden moisture and small problems before they turn expensive. Can my houseplants cause mold in my home? They can, since overwatered soil and water-based humidifiers or air purifiers can become breeding grounds for mold, often the easiest problem to fix.

    85 | The 10 Science-Backed Supplements That Actually Helped Me Detox and Heal From Mold Illness

    At one point in my mold recovery I was taking close to a hundred supplements a day. I felt like a prisoner in my own home, packing a literal suitcase of pills every time we left town. Here's the thing nobody told me: more was not better. If you've been sick for a while, your medicine cabinet probably tells the same story mine did. In this episode I'm walking you through the supplements that actually move the needle in mold recovery, and the why behind every single one. Mold is not a one system problem. It's deeply inflammatory, it burns through the nutrients your body is desperate for, and it hits your brain, your gut, your immune system, and your nervous system all at once. When you finally understand what you're taking and why it matters, staying consistent gets so much easier, and consistency is what actually gets you results. Key Takeaways: Why taking more supplements can quietly keep you stuck, and the shift that changes everythingThe simple "buckets" that finally match your supplements to every system mold is attackingThe one brain supplement with real clinical evidence behind the fog, the word recall, and the moodHow the cell danger response can lock your cells so almost nothing you swallow gets inWhy melatonin does far more than help you sleep when mycotoxins are in the pictureThe gut piece most people skip, and why detoxing without it just runs you in circles Questions this episode answers: What supplements actually help with mold recovery? The ones matched to every system mold attacks: magnesium, vitamin C, vitamin D, a potent B complex, phosphatidylserine, fish oil, curcumin, melatonin, a spore-based probiotic, and TUDCA, each at a studied dose. Why aren't my supplements working? Often it's cheap or synthetic forms your body can't absorb, the wrong dose, or a cell danger response that locks your cells so almost nothing gets in. Is taking more supplements better for mold illness? No. More is not better. A few targeted, well dosed supplements do far more than a cabinet full of random pills. Can melatonin help with mold toxicity? Yes. Beyond sleep, melatonin is a potent antioxidant that helps shield your cells from mycotoxin damage and supports your brain's nightly detox.

    84 | Labs Normal but Still Sick? Why Your Doctor's Standard Labs Miss Mold Toxicity with Kyle Peche

    If you've ever thrown everything at your healing, binders, antifungals, parasite cleanses, the whole arsenal, and somehow ended up sicker than when you started, this episode is for you. I sat down with Kyle Peche, and his story stopped me in my tracks because it sounded so much like mine. Kyle was the picture of health at 18, an athlete headed for medical school, and then his body collapsed into brain fog, panic attacks, food intolerances, and digestive issues so severe he could barely function. He spent years and six figures chasing answers through conventional medicine, functional medicine, and every diet you can name, and the aggressive killing and cleansing protocols he reached for first were the very things that set him back the most. What finally turned everything around was learning to heal in the right order, starting with mineral balancing and rebuilding his body from the ground up before he touched anything aggressive. We get into why jumping straight into detox backfires for so many of us, what it actually means to prep your terrain before you kill anything, how hair tissue mineral analysis reveals what blood work keeps missing, why your liver is almost always the bottleneck in mold recovery, the WiFi connection that could have your mold producing hundreds of times more mycotoxins, and the exact order Kyle uses to take someone from barely tolerating a binder to actually getting their life back. Key Takeaways: Why "gradually and then all at once" is the pattern almost every mold story quietly followsThe detox mistake that sends type A healers backwards faster than anything elseWhy your body might be too depleted to survive the very protocol you're about to startWhat "prep your terrain" actually means, and why skipping it is keeping you stuckThe fire and the gas leak analogy that finally explains why your body reacts to everythingWhy mineral balancing is not just supplementing whatever shows up low on a testWhat high calcium and magnesium on a hair test might really be telling you, because it's not what most people thinkThe reason your blood work keeps coming back "normal" while you feel anything butThe nightly WiFi habit that could be driving your mold to release hundreds of times more mycotoxinsWhy your liver is quietly running the entire show in mold recoveryThe hidden retroviral piece that cracks the cases where nothing else has workedWhy chasing parasites, mold, and Lyme in the wrong order keeps you trapped in the whack a mole loop You don't need to detox harder, you need to detox in the right order To Healing, Aubree Links and Resources: Learn more at Mold Free MomTake the Free Mold Symptom AssessmentBook a Free Discovery CallMold Healing Supplements────────────────────────────── Connect with Kyle Peche: Website: jyotimb.comInstagram: @kyle_peche

I'm walking you through five things you can do right now, today, that will actually move the needle when you've done everything and nothing is working.
