Cassandra Bock, a busy mother of two, sat down with Michael Rubino for this episode. A Minnesota native, Cassandra just recently welcomed her second child and knows from experience how jam-packed a day in the life of a mother can be (with or without mold exposure).

Her personal mold journey began around 2018 during her first pregnancy. What used to be an on-the-go lifestyle eventually turned into long days battling mold exposure symptoms.

Today’s Talk
During our talk, we discussed Cassandra’s extensive battle with mold exposure and the varying symptoms it caused. She experienced firsthand the difficulty of finding a diagnosis, jumping from doctor to doctor, and treatments that just never seemed to truly work. Choosing to focus on the bright side, Cassandra says that at least now she will know what to look for when it comes to mold presence and considering environmental factors as contributors to persistent symptoms.

We also touch on her unique story in discovering the mold in her home and how a renovation project ended up changing her life.

Who knew a home makeover could have such a big impact!

Today’s Talk:

In today’s chat, we discussed Harma’s personal experience with mold. With four years of misdiagnosis under his belt, Harma said understands how disheartening and confusing being affected by mold can be. It took visiting several doctors, undergoing countless tests, and hearing multiple “potential diagnoses” for him to finally get an answer to his poor well-being: mold. Until he dealt with the mold, his doctor told him things would not be normal in his body.

Mold never crossed Harma’s mind as the potential cause for his health issues. Sure, he’d heard of mold and knew it could affect someone’s health. He had never met anyone who was actually sick because of mold though.
