Michael Robinson always brings the nerdy gems and I learn something new every single time. We dive into advanced decision making for cancer and how to think clearly about screening, diagnosis, and treatment long before you are in crisis. We talk about the value of yearly tumor markers and whole body MRI, why tumor mutations matter more than where cancer appears, and how personalized targeted therapies can meaningfully shift outcomes.Michael also shares what he would do if he were diagnosed, how integrative care can reduce chemo side effects and boost effectiveness, and why air, water, and food quality matter more than extreme diets. We also explore the emotional and mental sides of cancer and why mindset, support, and clarity are essential parts of any treatment plan.KEY TAKEAWAYS: • Early screening helps you act before symptoms appear • Tumor genetics, not location, guide treatment • Integrative care improves tolerance and results • Air, water, and whole foods support immunity • Mindset and emotional support influence outcomesCheck out Michael's previous episode here: 307 Integrative Oncology Tumor marker testing: https://www.nourishhealthcare.org/labs-guidesABOUT GUEST:Dr. Robinson is a naturopathic doctor specializing in naturopathic oncology in the Chicago suburbs.

Watch here: christabiegler.com/blueprintThis week, I’m breaking down the simplest, most practical steps I use with clients to spot mold issues and support cleaner indoor air. After talking with naturopathic oncologist Michael Robinson (his new episode airs next week), I was reminded how foundational air and water quality are for immune resilience and cancer prevention. Mold is far more common than most people realize, and with a few inexpensive tools and a calm, empowered approach, you can get a clearer picture of what’s happening in your home and your body.KEY TAKEAWAYS: • Mold symptoms can look like skin issues, sinus congestion, yeast, or frequent illness • Stress can reactivate old mold exposures • Check water areas for bubbling floors, stains, or separating walls or baseboards • Use humidity meters in bathrooms and the kitchen • Fans and fast drying prevent many issues • Thermal guns help spot cold or moisture areas • ERMI dust testing is better than air samples • Supporting your nervous system helps immune recovery • I upgraded to Jaspr for stronger filtration and cleaner air⚡Jaspr Air Scrubber Commercial-grade, steel-built, and filters 5× more than typical purifiers. Removes 100% airborne mold (per their testing) in 3 hours and may reduce snoring and throat clearing. $799 ($400 off) with code “lessstressed” through 12/1, then it goes back to $200 off.Episodes Mentioned:245 I split tested urine mycotoxins (mold) and here are my results with Christa317 Environmental Mold Remediation with Michael Rubino, Founder of HomeCleanse334 Mold Remediation Made Easier with Dr. Emily Kiberd336 DIY Mold Inspection & New Construction (Part 2) with Michael Rubino355 Air Quality After Floods and Fires with Mike FeldsteinCLICK HERE for more mold episodes! ❓Question for Christa?
