About this listen
We spend 90% of our time indoors—but how much thought do we give to how our homes affect our health?
In this episode, Pauline Hammerbeck sits down with Liz Miles, Vice President of Residential at the International Well Building Institute (IWBI), to explore how the built environment passively impacts our wellbeing every single day—from the air we breathe to the lighting we're exposed to, the water we drink, and even that noisy neighbor next door.
Liz shares her 12-year journey with IWBI, from the 2015 launch of the commercial WELL Building Standard to the development of WELL for Residential—a certification program specifically designed for homes, not just offices. She breaks down why residences needed their own approach (hint: raising kids and sleeping are very different from working), and reveals the surprising results from their pilot program.
