You've opened the windows, cleaned out your closets, and embraced the fresh air—but if you're still feeling foggy, fatigued, or inflamed, there may be something you're missing.

In this episode, we're exposing one of the most underestimated health disruptors of the season—and how spring's "fresh start" can quietly sabotage your well-being. From overlooked home maintenance traps to exactly how the "stack effect" changes your home's air, we're sharing the exact checklist that could be the missing piece between you and the way you want to feel in your home.

We're joined in this bonus episode by Martine Davis,  a nationally recognized expert in indoor air quality and founder of Indoor Environmental Testing, Inc., with more than 4,000 home inspections to her name and 17 years as senior instructor at the International Institute for Building Biology. Her work was born from personal illness and a relentless pursuit of answers—now she's a trusted resource.

If you've been wondering why you feel worse in spring—and what you can do to change that—don't miss this empowering, science-backed conversation.
