#moldfinders: RADIO

What if vertigo isn’t actually the diagnosis?In the final episode of our Mold Awareness Month series, Corey is joined by Dr. Madison Oak, Doctor of Physical Therapy and founder of The Vertigo Doctor, for a fascinating conversation about chronic dizziness, vestibular migraine, mold exposure, and what to do next.Dr. Madison breaks down why dizziness and vertigo are symptoms rather than diagnoses, the different things that can contribute to them, and what happens when the brain has trouble integrating information from the vestibular system, vision, and proprioception.They also get into:• Why busy environments can become overwhelming for people with chronic dizziness• The connection between chronic dizziness, anxiety, and the nervous system• Vestibular migraine, dysautonomia/POTS, BPPV, and other potential causes• What mold exposure may have to do with complex cases• Registry data showing the overlap between dizziness, fatigue, headaches, anxiety, insomnia, and elevated home mold scores• Connecting environmental dust testing with mycotoxin testing to better understand the home + body picture• Why remediation and detoxification aren't always the end of the story• How vestibular rehabilitation can help people rebuild function and get back to everyday activities• Why some people continue to struggle even after receiving “normal” test resultsThroughout September, The Dust Test and Mosaic Diagnostics sponsored #moldfinders: RADIO as part of Mold Awareness Month, bringing more awareness, education, and practical information around mold and the bigger health picture.And there’s still time to enter our Mold Awareness Month giveaway! 🎉We’re giving away our Body + Home Mold Testing Bundle, featuring the MycoTOX Profile + The Dust Test.

You all are in for another awesome episode for our Mold Awareness Month series!In this episode of #moldfinders: RADIO, Corey sits down with functional medicine practitioner Dr. Taylor Krick, also known as “The Autoimmune Doc,” for a conversation that goes well beyond the question of whether mold is a root cause.Corey and Dr. Krick dig into the nuance around testing, including the different things we may actually be looking for when it comes to mold: colonization, mycotoxin exposure, and immune reactivity. They talk about why those are not interchangeable and why the right testing matters when trying to understand what may actually be going on.They also get into the gut, the brain, glutathione, the immune system, and how different “levers” can be addressed to help reduce the overall toxic bucket and support the body’s ability to handle what it’s being exposed to. Plus share stories along the way.This is a conversation about looking at the whole picture, using data to guide the next step, reducing the overall burden on the body, and building resilience instead of chasing one single cause. This episode is part of the Mold Awareness Month series from The Dust Test and Mosaic Diagnostics, created to bring more awareness, education, and practical information around mold and the role it can play in the bigger health picture.Want the chance to win our MycoTOX Profile® & The Dust Test giveaway?

At the beginning of today’s episode, Corey referenced Dr. Drew Kidder as a wealth of knowledge, and he wasn’t kidding.This Mold Awareness Month episode is packed with information. Dr. Drew Kidder, Vice President of Strategy, Execution, and Education at CellCore Biosciences, sits down with Corey to take a deeper look at mold exposure, mycotoxins, detoxification, and the terrain of the body.Why can two people live in the same home and have completely different responses? What does “drainage” actually mean? And why might someone feel worse when they start trying to detox?Dr. Drew breaks it all down. From the difference between detoxification and drainage, to how the liver processes toxins, where the body actually eliminates them, and why supporting those pathways matters. They also get into binders, mycotoxin exposure, the importance of addressing the environment, and how looking at what’s happening in the home alongside what’s happening in the body can provide a bigger picture.It’s a conversation about getting beyond the idea that there’s one test, one toxin, or one protocol that explains everything.Because when it comes to mold, the question isn’t just “What are you exposed to?”It’s also “What is your body doing with it?”This episode is part of the Mold Awareness Month series from The Dust Test and Mosaic Diagnostics, created to bring more awareness, education, and practical information around mold and the role it can play in the bigger health picture.Want the chance to win our MycoTOX Profile® & The Dust Test giveaway?

Get ready! This is the first conversation of our Mold Month Series, with Corey Levy, co founder of The Dust Test and We Inspect. Corey sits down with Dr. Karleen Sickinger, naturopathic physician and Clinical Educator with Mosaic Diagnostics, to talk about what happens when mold becomes part of the clinical picture.
The goal isn’t to assume mold is the answer.

It’s to ask better questions and look at the bigger picture:

What is happening inside the body?

And where could that exposure be coming from?


Dr. Karleen shares how she approaches complex patients, the symptom patterns that can put mold on her radar, and why testing should be used to gather more information rather than jump to conclusions.


Corey and Dr. Karleen also dig into the connection between mycotoxin testing and the home environment, including why a positive result from the body can’t tell you where the exposure came from, and why looking at the environment can be an important part of the investigation.


If the symptoms fit the picture, the history raises suspicion, and the data gives you another reason to look closer, it may be time to consider both the body and the environment. Because sometimes, the next clue isn’t inside the body. It’s where the body spends its time.


This conversation is part of Mold Month Series, a September series from The Dust Test and Mosaic Diagnostics created to bring more awareness, education, and practical information around mold and the role it can play in the bigger health picture.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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!
