In this powerful and emotional episode of Crunchy Moms Unfiltered, we sit down with Debbie, a mama of four originally from Chicago, now living in Sarasota, who calls herself “a voice for the voiceless.”

Debbie vulnerably shares her experience raising a nonverbal autistic daughter, and how she believes her condition was triggered—or at the very least, worsened—by medical interventions she once trusted.

This is not an easy story. But it’s a crucial one.

We dive into:

• What it’s really like parenting a nonverbal child in a world that doesn’t understand
• Her awakening to the potential triggers that led to her son’s regression
• The emotional toll, the fierce advocacy, and the deep healing that follows
• How she found her voice—and now uses it for those who don’t have one

If you’ve ever questioned the system, felt silenced as a mother, or are navigating autism in your own family—this episode will speak straight to your heart.
