What Every Parent Should Know About Lead and Safety
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, we peel back the curtain on the hidden world of lead exposure and the far-reaching impact it can have—often where you least expect it.
I explore:
- How my personal journey with my autistic son sparked a relentless search for answers about environmental toxins
- Eric Ritter’s unexpected path from drug testing kits to pioneering at-home lead detection
- Eye-opening truths about where lead lurks in our homes, water, and even everyday items
- Clear, practical steps for detecting and reducing lead risks—without panic or overwhelm
- Why asking tough questions and embracing curiosity is the essential key to protecting your family’s health
Packed with stories, honesty, humor, and actionable guidance, this conversation will challenge everything you think you know about “safe” environments—and inspire you to become a proactive leader in your own home.
Autism Changemakers is a private community just for parents of nonspeaking kids. It’s where you don’t have to explain yourself, and where you’ll always be surrounded by people who believe in your child’s brilliance.
