I'm sure you are going to appreciate the conversation that I'm having with Brantley May with Enviro Health. Brantley and I have known each other for several years. We've worked together on projects and he refers to a lot of the information I talk about. I certainly refer clients to Brantley and his services. Brantley is a building scientist. He's an indoor environmental professional. He's not just a mold inspector, but Brantley truly is somebody who can help with the built environment, the health of the occupants, and of course the energy efficiency and sustainability of the space. He's based down in Florida, but I know he works a large area of the country. I'm having Brantley on the show today, not only to talk about him and his business, but he's got a very interesting nightmare of a project that we’ll be discussing.

Brantley reached out to me recently wanting to know what to do next, and this is going to probably hit close to home for a lot of you. I've been talking about the dangers of spray foam insulation for years. The building industry is starting to really adopt because spray foam because it heals a lot of the wounds of construction…not so good lumber, poor building practices…spray foam fills in all those little gaps to make sure that our homes are more energy efficient. Here are the downside though… it's not a safe product. I've always known it to be very dangerous, but what Brantley is experiencing, this is something that has happened to other clients before, but I think it's the first time it's actually happened to somebody who is an actual building scientist himself, and the absolute horrible situation is own home. So I think you're going to really appreciate today's conversation. Hopefully you'll make a better decision if you're in the middle of a project on your own to maybe go in a different direction, and that's really the goal of this episode. So please listen and pass along to your family, friends, you're building community members. Everybody needs to hear this one.

I know I'm getting old when I start "looking back" at my career and remembering the old days. That said, one of the most asked questions I get is "how did you ever get in this business" so I thought Id finally address that.

This episode is my story about starting Green Design Center and Non Toxic Environments. Who were the pioneers in the healthy home space? Why are our homes getting so dangerous? Where do I go for real information and an real education? I cover this all, straight from my heart. Thank you for following my show!
