In this episode, Dr Shami speaks with building biologist Nicole Bijlsma about the hidden health effects of mould and how your home environment may be contributing to chronic symptoms.
Mould is more than just a cosmetic issue, it’s a biological exposure. When moisture sits in a home for more than 48 hours, microbes can proliferate and release toxins and airborne compounds that impact indoor air quality and health.

Six Hats

Is Your Home Making You Sick? The Hidden Impact of Mould with Nicole Bijlsma, Building Biologist

In this episode of SIX Hats, Dr. Shami sits down with ADHD coach and consultant Francine Freedman to explore the realities of high functioning ADHD in adults.

Many people with ADHD appear successful on the outside with careers, businesses, families, achievements and yet internally feel overwhelmed, exhausted, emotionally dysregulated, or constantly “behind.” Francine shares practical insights into why ADHD is often missed in adults, particularly women and high achievers, and explains how understanding the ADHD brain can transform self-worth, productivity, relationships, and wellbeing.

Together, they discuss nervous system regulation, burnout, masking, emotional overwhelm, procrastination, dopamine-seeking behaviours, and the importance of building systems that support,  rather than fight against — the ADHD brain.

The ADHD Advantage: Rewriting Success with Francine Freedman, ADHD Coach

Burnout doesn’t always look like breaking down.

For many men, it looks like continuing to function, going to work, supporting others, staying productive while quietly feeling exhausted, irritable, and disconnected.

In this episode, Dr Shami explores the early signs of burnout that are often overlooked, and why recognising them early can make all the difference.

This conversation offers a deeper understanding of how burnout develops, not just mentally, but physically,  through the nervous system, hormones, and lifestyle patterns.

If you’ve been feeling “off” but can’t quite explain why, this episode will help you connect the dots.
