When life doesn’t go as planned, God still writes a beautiful story. Today I’m joined by Kari A. Baker, former financial services executive, now author, speaker, and founder of KIND Families (“Kids with Invisible Neurological Differences”). Kari shares how her son’s autism diagnosis became the doorway to faith, purpose, and a new calling to champion neurodiverse families. You’ll hear practical encouragement, spiritual insight, and a powerful reframe from “fixing” to loving the strengths God placed within our children.
We cover:
- Kari’s pivot from a 30-year financial career to founding KIND Families and writing Finding KIND (with a foreword by her son, Brady).
- Moving from isolation and overwhelm to faith, community, and purpose.
- Why “invisible” neurological differences (autism, ADHD, dyslexia, anxiety, OCD, and more) require fresh understanding and dignity.
- Practical first steps if you’re newly navigating a diagnosis: find community, pursue truth, and anchor your hope in God.
