House Is Medicine: How Better Homes Protect Our Health, Wallets, and Planet ft. Paul Kealey (EkoB...

For nearly twenty years, today’s guest has been quietly—and sometimes uncomfortably—challenging one of the biggest assumptions we make: that a new home is automatically a healthy one. Spoiler alert—it’s often not. Paul Kealey is the Founder and President of EkoBuilt, one of North America’s most advanced sustainable homebuilding companies, and the architect of a philosophy he calls House is Medicine. His work sits at the intersection of human health, environmental responsibility, and long-term affordability—and it’s forcing the building industry to rethink everything from air quality to energy use to how homes actually affect our bodies and minds. Paul designs and builds net-zero Passive Houses that don’t just save energy—they reduce stress, prevent mold and illness, protect families, and last for generations. His belief is simple but radical: our homes are not inert structures. They’re living environments. And when they’re designed poorly, they quietly compromise our health every single day. In this conversation, we dig into why building codes aren’t enough, how “value engineering” often works against human health, what the pandemic changed about how we think about indoor air, and why resilience—at both the personal and planetary level—starts at home. If you care about health, sustainability, affordability, or the future of housing, this episode will completely change the way you look at the place you live.  Learn more about EkoBuilt: https://ekobuilt.com/ Message us your thoughts!
