Kelsey shares her initial concerns about Carter's development and how she followed her instincts after being told by a speech-language therapist that Carter didn't have autism.Listen in as Kelsey opens up about the emotional rollercoaster of the autism evaluation process, the struggles Carter faced with new situations, and the ultimate validation she felt after receiving the diagnosis. Also discussed is the impact of Kelsey's own ADHD diagnosis as well as how she created a business (and helps others too!) that allows her to prioritize Carter's needs without sacrificing success. Kelsey highlights the importance of trusting your instincts as a parent and seeking the right support for your child, and her experiences are a testament to the power of acceptance and hope in the autism journey.CHAPTERS0:04:50 - Navigating a speech delay 0:07:53 - Early signs of autism 0:12:28 - Seeking early intervention and an autism referral0:22:29 - What an autism evaluation can look like0:25:58 - Benefits of telehealth evaluations 0:34:50 - Navigating post-diagnosis and school supports 0:40:32 - Achieving balance as a business owner
