Ep. 92 - Navigating Autism After the Military with Danielle

from Autism for Badass Moms · host Rashidah Cartwright

In this week’s episode, Rashidah sits down with Danielle Desiree, a powerful voice in the neurodiversity community and a proud autism mom from Atlanta, Georgia. Danielle’s 17-year-old son, Jordan, was diagnosed with autism and ADHD at the age of 7—a moment that reshaped her entire journey. Danielle previously served in the United States Air Force, where she experienced a structured and supportive environment while raising her eldest child. After transitioning out of the military, she faced the challenge of adjusting to a different lifestyle, particularly in the absence of the resources and support systems that had previously surrounded her. That led her to be inspired to create EVOL2VE (Evolve 2 Love)—a movement dedicated to helping others find meaning, healing, and strength through life’s challenges. Danielle is also the host of An Extraordinary Life, a podcast that amplifies voices within the neurodiverse community, and she’s launching a new initiative called KINGZ, focused on empowering youth. Tune in as Danielle shares her journey, her heart, and her mission to help others unlock their potential with grace, confidence, and love. Connect with Danielle: Website: evol2ve.com Facebook/Instagram: thedanielledesiree You Tube: youtube.com/@thedanielledesiree   Follow Us: Instagram & Facebook: @theabmpodcast TikTok: @autismforbadassmoms YouTube: @theabmpodcast Don’t forget to subscribe, rate, and share!
