Kari A. Baker is a former financial services executive and business owner who walked away from a 30 year career in the corporate world to answer God’s call to ministry. In 2023, she founded KIND Families, a community of those who love Kids with Invisible Neurological Differences (KIND). She is an author, avid blogger, public speaker, and she is the host of The KIND Families Podcast on Apple and Spotify.

Kari became a KIND mom in 2014 when her son Brady was diagnosed with autism at age three. Her journey started with all the pain, uncertainty, and isolation that so many special needs parents encounter, but along the way she found faith, community, and joy in surrendering to God’s design. Finding KIND (available on Amazon here: https://a.co/d/foCJY1c) is an account of Kari’s journey from awareness to acceptance, and features a foreword written by her son, Brady.

Ultimately, Kari’s experiences as a KIND Mom taught her practical lessons in thriving when the best laid plans go awry. Anyone who knows and loves a kid with invisible neurological differences or who is exploring faith in the midst of life’s challenges will find hope and encouragement in Kari’s story.
