Welcome to My Mighty Quinn

In this powerful and deeply personal episode, I’m joined by the extraordinary Dr Lauren Lee Stone — functional medicine practitioner, homotoxicologist, and mother of two boys once diagnosed with autism and PANS — neither of whom holds those diagnoses today.

Together, we expose the hidden toxic load affecting every modern child — from food, water, air and medications to birth trauma, stress, and emotional overwhelm — and how these silent stressors are inflaming young brains and bodies.

Dr Lauren shares her family’s remarkable recovery story and explains why so many children today struggle with sleep, anxiety, aggression, gut issues, tics and learning challenges — and what parents can do to start clearing the path to healing.

She breaks down complex science into compassionate, practical steps any family can take right now — showing that true detox is not deprivation or “kill protocols,” but a gentle, bio-individual process of strengthening and re-educating the body to heal itself.

Key Takeaways include:

  • Children today are born with their mothers’ accumulated toxic load — from heavy metals and chemicals to emotional stress and infections.
  • Chronic symptoms like anxiety, sleep problems, tics, gut issues, and meltdowns often point to an inflamed brain, not a behavioural disorder.
  • The “whole toxic load” includes environmental, dietary and emotional stressors.
  • Birth trauma and early medical interventions can disrupt development and nervous-system regulation.
  • Gentle detoxification begins only after opening drainage pathways and fortifying the organs of elimination.
  • Aggressive “kill” detoxes can backfire, causing regression and inflammation.
  • Parents can start today by reducing household toxins, nourishing with real food, and prioritising restorative sleep.
  • Above all, parents are the magic — when you heal, your child heals.

Listen now to understand why your child’s body may be too burdened to heal — and how you can begin lifting that load, one gentle step at a time.
