My Story & How It Led to Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion - a podcast by Devika Carr

In this deeply personal episode, I share the story of my upbringing to bring awareness to the influence parents can have in shaping children's lives. I then share intimate details about the journey from naming my first born son to making the commitment to see his exceptionalities first, despite receiving an autism spectrum disorder diagnosis at age 3. I describe my frustration and sadness about the number of people who receive news about someone they love being designated as different or with disability and not knowing where to turn for resources that strengthen their mindset as they love and support that person. Without judgment, but with honest awareness, I make it clear that society needs a cultural shift in the way we see exceptionalities in one another and minimize limitations, and See ME not asd is at the forefront of the movement. Wherever a path is not already created, make your own. And so, I did.
