Heal Squad x Maria Menounos

Happy Pot Luck Saturday! We talk Trapper Keepers, metal lunchboxes, Halloween Season, and Mrs. B. It’s back-to-school shopping- a deep dive! We talk about character lunchboxes, thermoses, erasable pens, composition books, electric pencil sharpeners, school uniforms, layaway, the rich kids with Trapper Keepers, the first-day “premiere” outfit, and school shopping through the years. We talk about Sears, Bradley's, Caldor, Woolworth, Marshall's, lunchbox collectors, forgotten TV icons, why Halloween deserves its own season, and whether the 1970s and '80s really were the golden age of back-to-school shopping. It's a Pot Luck Saturday with school shopping, forgotten stores, lunchboxes, Halloween, the school supply aisle and a thermos full of soup. Happy Saturday Heal Squad! We'll talk shawtly!

Hey Heal Squad! It’s Friday and somehow, once again, we fooled them and made it through another week. This week, a little 1926 jazz turns into a conversation about why the world doesn't seem to change the way it used to, the art of thinking ahead, and whether we've forgotten how to make small talk interesting. We introduce a few new RGF Observations and discover that "air pudding" might be the perfect description for conversations that leave you completely drained. We talk about building for the future, condo life versus country life, energy vampires, the newly invented civilian alarm, lingering house guests, and why curiosity will always beat talking about tomorrow's weather. We talk about 1926 jazz records, Oldsmobile Toronados, paper towels hidden from the Tyrannosaurus Rex, airplane tickets booked a year in advance, and why maybe the best thing we can all bring to a conversation isn't another complaint...it's an interesting observation. Happy Friday. We'll Talk Shawtly!

Hey, Heal Squad! Today we're throwing it back to one of our most eye-opening conversations with Dr. Christopher Motley, a leading expert in functional kinesiology and Chinese medicine. If you've been following our recent episodes on mold toxicity, this is the perfect next listen because mold and Lyme disease often go hand in hand, sharing many of the same frustrating symptoms. Dr. Motley explains the surprising ways Lyme can enter the body, why so many people never fully recover, and the hidden role blocked drainage pathways play in keeping you sick. From EMFs, heavy metals, and mold toxicity to trapped emotions, he reveals how these invisible stressors overwhelm your body, disrupt your lymphatic system, and prevent true healing. We also dive into how trauma can become stored in your organs, what viruses like Epstein-Barr have to do with fatigue and hormone imbalances, and why restoring your body's Qi (your electromagnetic life force) may be one of the missing pieces to lasting wellness. If you've been doing everything "right" but still don't feel like yourself, this throwback episode will help you connect the dots and finally understand what could be keeping your body stuck.

Hey, Heal Squad! We're back with Part 2 of our must-listen conversation with Dr. Amy Myers…and this one is where we get into everything you actually DO about mold toxicity Dr. Amy walks Maria through the tests you actually need for mold toxicity, the detox protocol she uses in her own life to pull mycotoxins out of the body, and exactly how to clean up your environment (think dehumidifiers to HEPA filters to the food swaps that matter) …without having to build a mold-resistant house from scratch like she did. We also talk about simple things like how sweating daily, moving your bowels, and drinking filtered water aren't extras… they're detoxing. This is a great episode and playbook on what you can control with some amazing tools. So save this one and come back to it every time you move, renovate, travel, or feel a little "off" and can't figure out why.

HEALERS & HEAL LINERS

The tests to actually ask for (and the ones missing the real problem): Dr. Amy’s full testing playbook includes starting with the HLA-DR gene test (available through LabCorp), the urine mycotoxin panel that shows what your body is excreting, the ERMI dust test that catches what standard mold air tests miss, and the specific immune markers (VEGF, C4A, MMP) that Dr. Ritchie Shoemaker uses to flag mold toxicity. She also names the mold inspector she trusts with her life!

The 3 things Dr. Amy takes to get mold out of her body: Dr. Amy shares the exact 3-supplement stack she uses to detox mycotoxins: (1) acetylated glutathione, the number-one detoxifier in the human body, (2) a liver support supplement to help your liver process what's coming out, and (3) activated charcoal to bind the toxins and pull them out through your bowel movements. Then she connects it to the bigger picture : why infrared saunas, sweating daily, staying hydrated, and moving your bowels 1 to 3 times a day are the mechanisms doing the actual heavy lifting.

How to clean up your environment (and what to eat) without moving out: Dr. Amy closes with her "control what you can" list of habits she runs every day to lower her exposure. Start with a HEPA filter in your bedroom (where you spend 8 to 10 hours a day). Add a dehumidifier to keep humidity under 35%, and empty it out regularly so it doesn't become the problem. Filter your drinking water AND your shower water. Eat organic at home so your body can handle whatever the outside world throws at you. Watch out for fast furniture and imported wool rugs. And the biggest one nobody wants to hear: SWEAT DAILY!

Hey, Heal Squad! It feels like mold is everywhere these days...but how much of what we're hearing is actually true? That's exactly why we were so excited to welcome our friend of the pod, Dr. Amy Myers, back to Heal Squad. Dr. Amy is an internationally acclaimed functional medicine physician, 2x New York Times bestselling author (The Autoimmune Solution and The Thyroid Connection), founder of Austin UltraHealth, and host of the Take Back Your Health podcast. But here's what makes this conversation hit differently...mold toxicity is deeply personal for Dr. Amy. She's lost everything to mold three-and-a-half times. She's been diagnosed with PTSD. She flew in a trauma specialist to help her heal. And she is telling us everything she wishes she had known sooner.Today, Maria and Dr. Amy break down the biggest do's and don'ts of mold toxicity.This is the one you're going to want to send to everyone you know. We get into why toxic mold is so different from everyday household mold, why water-damaged buildings are the real hidden culprit, the gene 1 in 4 people carry that means their body literally can't clear mold (and why women are hit so much harder than the men living in the same house), why women are so often dismissed when mold is the underlying issue, and the surprising places mold loves to hide...even when you can't see it. The best part? Dr. Amy doesn't just tell us what to watch out for…she shares the simple habits she uses in her own home to help prevent mold before it becomes a problem, along with practical ways to lower your risk without living in fear. Trust us...this conversation will have you looking at your home a little differently, and it might just explain symptoms you've never been able to connect.

HEALERS & HEAL LINERS

The biggest mold do's and don'ts every homeowner should know: From why she avoids front-loading washing machines and installs leak detectors under every sink, to the mistake people make when buying brand-new homes and the difference between everyday mold and water-damaged buildings, Dr. Amy shares the practical habits she follows to protect her home…without living in fear.

Women aren't crazy...they're being dismissed: Mold symptoms often look like anxiety, burnout, thyroid issues, brain fog, or perimenopause(1 in 4 people carry a gene (HLA-DR) that means their body literally cannot clear the toxins. Women are hit hardest.).. Instead of asking, "What's wrong with my body?" Dr. Amy says more women should be asking, "Could my home be making me sick?" It's a simple question that could uncover the hidden root of symptoms often blamed on hormones, stress, or aging.

Dr. Amy built a mold-resistant dream home from the ground up and STILL got hit: If it can happen to her, it can happen to any of us, and that's exactly why you need to hear what she wishes she had known sooner.
