Parents—this one’s going to ruffle some feathers. 💜 In this bold episode of Pam & The Purple Couch, Pam dives headfirst into one of the most controversial topics out there: vaccines and autism.

From RFK Jr.’s media storm to preservatives in vaccines, Pam unpacks what’s actually being said, what’s being avoided, and why parents deserve full transparency and real choices when it comes to their children’s health.

This isn’t anti-vaccine…it’s pro-knowledge. Pam breaks down what’s inside common shots, how environmental factors affect outcomes, and why one-size-fits-all medicine just doesn’t make sense for every child.

You’ll learn:

âś… Why preservatives like thimerosal are being questioned again

✅ What a “green vaccine” really is and how to ask for one ✅ Why allergic reactions and intolerances matter in early vaccination

âś… The history behind the autism conversation (from Rain Man to RFK Jr.)

âś… How social pressure and misinformation keep parents silent
