Is Your Dream Home Making You Sick?

In this episode, I dive into a topic we rarely talk about but need to—hidden mold and mycotoxins in our homes—with special guest Seth Jones. Once a globe-trotting DJ and music producer, Seth’s own encounter with building-related illness led him to found Superstratum and dedicate his life to protecting people from the invisible (and often misunderstood) dangers lurking in “perfect” homes.

Together, we bust the myth that only old, musty houses have mold problems. Seth reveals why new builds could be the most toxic of all, how airtight construction traps moisture and poisons inside, and what symptoms to look out for if you suspect your environment is making you sick. We discuss the science of mycotoxins—what they do in your body, why most doctors miss the warning signs, and how you can actually get rid of them from your space.

If you or someone you love has persistent gut issues, brain fog, skin flare-ups, or mysterious chronic fatigue, this episode is a must-listen. It’s not just about fixing your living space—it’s about reclaiming your health and peace of mind.

3. Why Testing for Mold (and Mycotoxins) Isn’t So Simple

4. A Step-by-Step Detox Protocol You Can Do Yourself
   Seth’s proven system for reclaiming your space, from deep cleaning to gas treatments to protective coatings—all safe for your family and pets.
5. The Emotional Toll of Building-Related Illness
