Episode Synopsis

Elissa is a late-diagnosed autistic ADHD speech-language pathologist, autism expert, and entrepreneur who’s redefining what leadership looks like in the therapy and education world. After years of running a successful in-person practice, Elissa turned her lived experience as a neurodivergent woman into a driving force behind Speech Works By Elissa, an online coaching and parent course membership platform that empowers parents of nonverbal and speech-delayed children to teach their kids to speak and live independently.
 
Elissa is proudly leading the way for other neurodivergent professionals by breaking down barriers in healthcare, building scalable solutions, and creating safe spaces where innovation and inclusion go hand in hand. Her work has reached thousands globally and earned her recognition as a ClickFunnels Ambassador, a featured expert on the national TV series Legacy Makers, and a speaker at the ICAN International Conference alongside Temple Grandin.
 
She is also the co-founder of ClimbRx, the world’s largest sensory community for neurodivergent parents and professionals, and a founding host of ClickFunnels Connect Las Vegas. Through her strategic online funnels, her top-selling parent coaching programs, and her partnerships with industry leaders like TalkTools, Elissa is building a legacy of access, empowerment, and transformation,  not just for families, but for the neurodivergent community at large.
