Never Been Sicker #85: Mold Made Her Sick—So She Built a Healthcare Company

Michael Rubino Season 2 Episode 85

In this episode of Never Been Sicker, Michael sits down with Ariana Thacker, the founder and CEO of MoldCo, a venture-backed healthcare startup that's revolutionizing how we treat mold-related illness. Born from Ariana’s own experience navigating mold toxicity, MoldCo offers affordable, evidence-based care, from advanced lab testing and prescription treatments to a growing network of mold-literate doctors—all available virtually. They’re breaking down the confusion, skepticism, and high costs that have historically kept mold patients from healing.
