    Could Hidden Mold Be Causing Your Symptoms?

    In this episode of The Mold Show, we sit down with Ashley Drummonds—Board-Certified Integrative Health Practitioner (AADP), former Shark Tank entrepreneur, and practitioner specializing in mold toxicity, CIRS, MCAS, and histamine intolerance. Before helping others recover from mold-related illness, Ashley was the patient. Despite years in the health and wellness industry, she struggled with debilitating symptoms including fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, and unexplained weight loss. After countless appointments and being told her lab work was "normal," she eventually discovered the true source of her illness: prolonged exposure to mold in a water-damaged building. Ashley shares how that discovery transformed both her health and her career, leading her to dedicate her practice to helping others uncover overlooked environmental factors that may contribute to chronic illness. Together, we discuss the importance of investigating the home environment, why water damage should never be ignored, how mold exposure is often overlooked, and the role of proper building assessments in creating healthier indoor spaces.
