    209: Jenny McCarthy's Mold Story: Symptoms, Testing & Recovery

    Today is a special episode! I'm joined by Jenny McCarthy, who you might know as an actress, television personality, or the founder of Formless Beauty. But today, she's here to share her full mold story. After years of unexplained symptoms, countless doctor visits, and trying to piece together what was happening to her health, Jenny finally discovered that mold and mycotoxins were a major part of the puzzle. We discuss why mold illness is so often missed, how exposures can happen in places you'd never suspect, and why testing both your body and your environment can help connect the dots much sooner. Jenny also opens up about what her recovery looked like, including the treatments and strategies that helped her heal, why opening detox pathways mattered, and the role gut health played in getting her life back. If you've been struggling with symptoms that no one seems to have an answer for, or you've wondered whether your environment could be part of the problem, I think you'll get a lot out of this episode.

    208: Testing Your Body AND Your Home for Mold | Dr. Kurt Woeller

    What if the reason you still don't feel better isn't just what's happening inside your body... but what's happening in your environment? I'm excited about this one because it's the perfect way to kick off our new partnership with Mosaic Diagnostics. I sat down with Dr. Kurt Woeller, Chief Medical Officer at Mosaic Diagnostics, to talk about the connection between mold exposure, mycotoxins, and the chronic health symptoms so many people struggle with. We cover how mold can affect your immune system, gut, brain, hormones, and even contribute to food and chemical sensitivities that leave people searching for answers. Dr. Woeller shares insights from decades of practicing integrative medicine, including his work with children with autism and patients facing complex chronic illnesses. We also break down what mycotoxin test results can (and can't) tell you, why your health history and environment matter just as much as your lab results, and how combining body testing with home testing gives you a much clearer picture of what's really going on. We also talk through our new partnership between Mosaic Diagnostics and The Dust Test and why we're so excited about it. By combining body testing with home testing, it's easier than ever to connect the dots, identify hidden mold exposure, and take the right next steps toward recovery. If you've been wondering whether hidden mold could be part of your health puzzle, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

    207: What Other Mold Inspectors Missed: Jessica Pawlicki's Journey to Answers

    What happens when you’ve already spent money on testing and remediation, thinking your home is safe… but your family keeps getting sicker? I sat down with Jessica Pawlicki, founder of Well Rooted and a past We Inspect client, to share her family’s mold journey and what finally helped them get answers. Jessica was dealing with joint pain, rashes, gut issues, and worsening symptoms despite previous remediation efforts. At the same time, her son was experiencing neurological and behavioral symptoms. The surprising part? The biggest source of contamination wasn’t where anyone expected. After a thorough investigation by my team, we uncovered severe mold contamination. The levels we found were some of the highest Jessica had ever seen. Once the major sources were identified and addressed, Jessica and her family were finally able to start healing. Now, she uses her experience to help others in similar situations get to the root cause and move forward. This is an episode you won’t want to miss!

    206: Mold Toxicity Recovery: Why Nutrition & Strength Training Matters With Ashley Drummonds

    What an awesome episode with Ashley Drummonds, a board-certified integrative health practitioner, former Shark Tank founder, lifelong fitness coach, and someone who’s personally walked through mold toxicity while still competing, building a business, and trying to keep life together on the outside. Ashley shares what it actually looked like when things started going wrong: rashes that wouldn’t go away, adrenaline jolts waking her up at night, bladder pain that got labeled as “cystitis,” vertigo, and episodes of shortness of breath that were brushed off as anxiety. Like a lot of people in this space, she didn’t get one clean answer… she got a lot of trial and error. And some of those “protocols” actually made things worse. Before the binders, before the supplements, Ashley breaks down why things like eating enough protein, not fearing healthy carbohydrates, and rebuilding strength through resistance training can change how the body actually handles stress, inflammation, blood sugar, and recovery. This is a grounded conversation about stepping back from extremes and rebuilding capacity first so your body can actually respond to everything else you’re trying to do for it.

    205: Hormones, Fertility, and Environmental Stressors with Leah Brueggeman

    You’re in for an awesome episode today! I sat down with functional practitioner and Balancing Hormones Naturally podcast host Leah Brueggeman to talk fertility, hormones, and the environmental stressors most people overlook. Leah breaks down how toxins, everyday products, and nervous system stress can disrupt hormone balance in both women and men… often without obvious warning signs. We dig into the foundations of hormone health, including blood sugar balance, minerals, digestion, protein, fiber, and why “doing all the right things” doesn’t work if the body is stuck in survival mode. Leah also shares her personal health journey and practical, realistic steps to reduce endocrine disruptors in daily life, support fertility naturally, and create a healthier internal environment for conception. If fertility or hormone health has felt confusing, frustrating, or out of reach, this episode offers clarity, perspective, and actionable guidance!

    204: Mold Toxicity, Chronic Illness & Therapeutic Plasma Exchange with Dr. Paul Savage

    Get ready for today’s episode because I got to talk with the awesome Dr. Paul Savage, founder of MD Lifespan! And we explore a treatment most people have never heard of, Therapeutic Plasma Exchange (TPE), and why it’s becoming part of the conversation around chronic illness and environmental exposure.Many people dealing with conditions like mold toxicity, Lyme disease, autoimmune illness, and chronic inflammation are doing everything “right,” yet still struggling. One of the biggest missing pieces is often ongoing environmental toxin exposure and the body’s inability to clear that load effectively.Dr. Savage explains how environmental toxins and biotoxins accumulate in the bloodstream, how this can drive persistent symptoms, and why we’re now seeing measurable neurotoxins even in newborns. The conversation breaks down the science behind TPE, how it works to remove inflammatory and toxic components from plasma, and where it may fit into a broader healing strategy.This episode is all about understanding why some bodies stay stuck and how addressing environmental load may change the equation.

    203: What Your Mouth Is Telling You About Your Gut and Detox Pathways with Dr. Haroldo Magariños

    Today I sit down for an awesome episode with Dr. Haroldo Magariños, founder of DetoxU, dentist, and naturopathic doctor specializing in the oral-gut axis and microbiome health. We talked about something most people overlook: how your mouth and gut are connected and why it matters for your whole body health. We explore the oral gut connection and why issues like periodontal disease are rarely just dental problems. Dr. Magariños explains how chronic oral infections, environmental toxins, and an overburdened detox system can quietly contribute to systemic inflammation and ongoing symptoms. We talk about why focusing on individual symptoms often misses the bigger picture. We also dive into biological dentistry, the oral microbiome, and how detox pathways actually function. Dr. Magariños shares practical insights on supporting detoxification in a way that makes sense, where people often go wrong with detox approaches, and how binders fit into a broader strategy for helping the body clear toxins. If you are dealing with persistent gut issues, inflammatory symptoms, or feel like your body is not clearing things the way it should, then definitely take a listen!

    202: Mold Increases Cholesterol! Amplifies its Damage! With Dr. John Kim

    Today we’re diving into something most people never think to connect with mold or their environment… heart disease. Yep the number one cause of death in the U.S. I’m joined by Dr. John Kim, a functional medicine practitioner and the founder of Kim Wellness. Dr. Kim has an incredible story. At just 33, he had a heart attack with no classic risk factors. That experience sent him down the rabbit hole of why a “healthy” guy ends up in the ER… and that journey eventually led him straight to environmental exposures, including mold toxicity. We get into the stuff your doctor probably isn’t talking about: how toxins in your home impact cholesterol production, inflammation, mitochondrial function, your immune system, and ultimately your heart. Dr. Kim breaks down how different environmental stressors stack over time and why so many people are walking around with symptoms no one is connecting back to their space. He also walks us through his six-step “Encore Method,” where he focuses on everything between lowering environmental impact, opening up detox pathways, rebuilding the microbiome, and helping the body become more resilient overall. If anything we talked about today hit home, Dr. Kim set up a really awesome #moldfinders special! He’s offering a super discounted 45-minute Discovery Call to help you start digging into the hidden root causes.
