I went live the other day in response to a consulting call to speak out to the industry about the ridiculous need for perfection. What started out as a quick 30 second live hit turned into 20 minutes of pleading to medical professionals to tone down the fear mongering and allow people to celebrate the small wins.

In my 30+ year career, I've helped over 30,000 chemically sensitive and mold damaged individuals to put their homes and their lives back together.  With that experience, I can tell you without a doubt that about 10% of my clients would be considered extremely health compromised.  Out of that small group, very few have the financial wherewithal to be able to afford to do whatever it takes to make their home as perfect as possible.  Thats about 1% in 30 years.  So this rant is really for the 99% of folks who aren't in that situation.  Its also for the building professionals who are promoting high-priced "fixes" as well as the medical professionals who are telling their patients that they need a perfect environment to heal in.  

Mold damaged homes and chemical intolerances are only getting worse and pushing this "all or nothing" attitude is eliminating hope and prolonging the path to healing. We need a serious conversation about this, my friends and there are many people much smarter than I that should be involved.  But I guess I'll do what Ive done my entire career and start sounding the alarm, hoping that these smart folks hear it and engage.
