In this episode, Dr. Amy Beard sits down with Lindsay Reeves (founder of Hope the Mold Dog) to discuss real-life healing from mold illness—without fear-based or extreme protocols.
Lindsay shares her family’s journey of severe mold exposure, leaving their home in 2017, and healing through simple, foundational steps when very few resources existed. Together, they emphasize why ending exposure, calming the nervous system, and supporting the body gently are often the most powerful tools for recovery.
Dr. Beard also shares an update on her own mold remediation journey, including working with Lindsay and her team—and why healing can’t be rushed.
In this episode:
• Why ending exposure is the first priority
• How gentle, common-sense support led to major healing
• Why aggressive detox and binders can backfire
• The importance of rest, sunlight, clean food, and nervous system regulation
• How to track progress without obsessing over testing
This conversation offers reassurance, clarity, and a grounded approach for anyone navigating mold illness.
