<p>Valeri tells the story of how her daughter Lora was underestimated in Special Ed, and after reading "Underestimated" by JB Handley, she called Dawn Marie Gaivin from the Spellers movie to see if Lora could spell to communicate. Lora chimes in my spelling "School was a nightmare" and she begged to be taken out of school. Now she finished her degree online and has just started taking her first college classes! And Mom has become a Spellers practitioner in San Diego. You can follow Lora on TikTok and Instagram as "Lora says with Love".</p>

Spectrum Perspectives is a safe space for parents, families, and anyone touched by Autism and special needs. Hosted by Cindy Gelormini, a mom who’s walked this journey herself, the podcast shares real conversations with parents, adults on the Spectrum, professionals, and advocates who understand both the challenges and the beauty of living life on the Spectrum.
Cindy isn’t afraid to ask the hard questions and open the door to topics that parents often wrestle with quietly—things like ABA therapy, bullying, vaccine injury, abuse, and new ways of communication such as Spelling to Communicate. As the show grows, so does the conversation—Season 4 explores spiritual insights, including telepathy and the hidden gifts that many families are just beginning to discover.
If you listen with an open mind and a tender heart, you may find comfort, hope, and maybe even a brand-new perspective on what it means to love someone on the Spectrum.
