November 12, 2026 · 1 h 16 min

Show notes

What happens when you've tried the diets, the supplements, and the protocols, but you're still not feeling better? When is it worth looking beyond your plate and considering your environment?

In this episode, I'm joined by Aubree Felderhoff, founder of Mold Free Mom, to discuss her family's experience with mold, years of unexplained symptoms, and the process of finding support. She shares how problems developed in a brand-new home, why visible mold isn't always the first clue, and what she wishes she'd known before navigating inspections and remediation.

We discuss Aubree's approach to testing, the importance of investigating moisture sources, and why symptoms may differ among people sharing the same space. We also get into the emotional weight of feeling unsafe in your home, our personal experiences with that fear, and why nervous system support became an important part of our journeys.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT IN THIS EPISODE:
  • Aubree's story of unexplained symptoms, Hashimoto's, and discovering mold in a brand-new home.
  • Why a home's age or the absence of visible mold doesn't tell the whole story.
  • Signs of moisture problems worth investigating, including bubbling paint, warped flooring, and HVAC concerns.
  • Why changes in symptoms across environments can be useful information to share with your healthcare provider.
  • Aubree's perspective on blood testing, urine testing, and visual contrast sensitivity screening.
  • The distinction between mold allergy and other concerns discussed around mold exposure.
  • Why identifying the moisture source matters alongside addressing the mold itself.
  • Questions to ask when choosing an inspector and remediation team.
  • How nervous system support fits alongside environmental and medical care.
  • Practical considerations when you can't immediately relocate or complete remediation.
