The Life Stylist The Mold Medic: How to protect your home & family from mold toxicity with Michael Rubino #337
I've covered many niche topics on this podcast, but this is the first one I'm doing about mold. The issue is fresh on my mind as I'm about to embark on an extensive remediation process with Michael Rubino, the mold medic, for my new crashpad in Austin, Texas.
I hate to break it to you, but you're probably living in a mold-infested box. This stuff isn't "out there" – it's literally in your lungs, inside your sofa, and under your sink. What's worse is that certain mold species produce mycotoxins, making things extra complicated for your health and home.
Michael Rubino knows so much about the ins-and-outs of construction, mold, and remediation and he's committed to getting the truth about mold, its causes, and how to get rid of it (FYI: cleaning it off does not help).
Think of me as the mold messenger: your health and home are going to thank me for it.

Are you aware of the dangers of EMF exposure in your home, but have no idea where to start when it comes to finding, and fixing them?
Are you concerned about your exposure to the current 3G, 4G, and 5G wireless networks now activated in most major cities?
Have you attempted to test the levels yourself using EMF meters you found online and ended up confused and frustrated?
EMFs (electromagnetic frequencies) are one of the most toxic elements in our living and work environments. Due to the technical nature of accurately testing for them—and the training required to do so properly—many of us resign ourselves to the fact that we just have to accept them and the consequences they bring in order to use the modern technology we depend on. But you don’t have to.
In this seven-part video documentary series, you will follow world-renowned building biologist Brian Hoyer as he tests an entire home, room by room, to determine the source and level of every known type of EMF.
By the end of this series, you will not only be thoroughly educated on the various types and sources of EMF commonly found in homes but also of the many mitigation tools and techniques available thanks to the cutting-edge technologies.
