We’ve turned intuition into a buzzword—flattened it into a slogan, a gut feeling, or a vague whisper we don’t always know how to hear. But what if intuition is so much more? What if it's one of the most powerful tools we have—and we’ve just forgotten how to use it? In this episode, I’m joined by Hrund Gunnsteinsdóttir , Icelandic thought leader, filmmaker, and author of InnSæi: Icelandic Wisdom for Turbulent Times . Hrund has spent over 20 years studying and teaching the science and art of intuition through her TED Talk, Netflix documentary ( InnSæi: The Power of Intuition ), and global work on leadership, innovation, and inner knowing. Together, we explore what intuition really is (hint: not woo-woo), how to cultivate it in a culture obsessed with logic and overthinking, and why your ability to listen to yourself might be the most essential skill you can develop. In This Episode, We Cover: ✅ Why we’ve misunderstood intuition—and how to reclaim it ✅ Practical ways to strengthen your intuitive muscle ✅ What Icelandic wisdom teaches us about inner knowing ✅ How to use intuition during uncertainty and decision-making ✅ Why trusting yourself is an act of rebellion (and power) Intuition isn’t magic—it’s a deep, internal guidance system that already exists inside you. The question is: are you listening?

When it comes to mold testing and sampling, no test is the end-all, be-all. Each case we face is unique, and the testing and sampling should reflect that. As your mold consultants, our goal is to always give you the most accurate information to protect your home and health. While basic sampling provides us with vital data, sometimes we just need to dig deeper. qPCR sampling is a type of testing that results in an overall contamination rating for a space. It uses a unique type of sample collection to evaluate a space at a deep level looking for contamination from a specific set of molds. It can also provide insight into the history of a property to indicate if contamination may have been building up over several years…

The age-old question: Is mold sampling necessary? Yes. Why? Mold sampling is a critical part of any environmental investigation because it confirms the type of mold present and the severity of the problem. It can help locate issues that may not be visible to the naked eye, and it also helps determine human exposure. Even if you can visibly see something that looks like mold, you don’t know with 100% certainty until that lab data is in hand. Sample results are critical for defining recommendations and next steps. They can save you money depending on the scope of remediation needed, and they are vital in helping treat health issues…

In today’s episode of the Secret Life of Mold, host Craig Cooper is joined by Mike Marshall, Chief Operating Officer from Mold Inspection Sciences Texas, and Robby Jackson, General Manager of Blackmon Mooring & BMS CAT. Mike and Robby bring together the worlds of remediation to discuss what each company does and how their two teams, working together, can comprehensively help solve a mold problem, ultimately meeting and exceeding a client’s needs. When it comes to mold assessment and remediation, there are several misconceptions around why each job needs to be done by separate, independently qualified companies. A trustworthy remediation company shouldn’t and won’t begin a project without a protocol developed by an independent third-party mold assessor. Even though each process deals with mold, one company performing both services on the same job creates a conflict of interest…
