Joshua and I explore how hidden mold and poor construction practices in our homes can contribute to chronic illness, especially in individuals with mold sensitivities or CIRS. We dive into how homes should be evaluated, how to avoid the most common construction pitfalls, and how to take actionable steps—even DIY ones—toward a safer living space. Make sure to watch the full interview to learn more.

Joshua Rachal is a Forensic Mold Assessor, Certified Master Inspector, and licensed Mold Assessment Consultant in Texas (MAC) and Florida (MA), known for his expertise in building science, construction defects, and mold diagnostics. After toxic mold impacted his own family, Josh shifted from running large-scale remodeling projects into becoming one of the nation's most trusted mold experts. He’s conducted over 3,000 mold assessments, produced 350+ remediation protocols with 100% clearance success, and served as an expert witness in more than 120 legal cases. His reports have been cited by Senator Jon Ossoff in Senate hearings and he is regularly referred by medical and wellness professionals for comprehensive mold evaluations.
