If you’ve ever been told “that service isn’t covered” or felt stuck trying to navigate Medicaid for your child, this series of episodes are for you.

In this first episode of the Florida Medicaid Waiver Explained of the No Limits Podcast, Laura Joslin breaks down the Medicaid Waiver Program — what it is, why it was created, and how it’s legally designed to support children with disabilities at home, in school, and in the community.

Laura shares this from both perspectives:

As a parent of two sons with cerebral palsy

And as a professional who has spent over 20 years working across therapy, education, and real-life functional support

In this episode, you’ll learn:

What the Medicaid Waiver is actually meant to do

Which diagnoses qualify under the waiver

The difference between the DD Waiver, iBudget, CDC+, and Medically Fragile Waiver

Why families get stuck on waiting lists or underfunded plans

How medically necessary services should align with real daily life

Why disconnects between doctors, schools, and therapy prevent waivers from working

This episode kicks off a multi-part series designed to help families understand and successfully negotiate a system that often feels overwhelming.

In today’s episode, Laura sits down with Sarah, a military mom who uprooted her entire family so her daughter, Kate, could finally receive an education that honored her abilities instead of limiting them.

Kate has atypical Rett syndrome, is nonverbal, and previously had no access to communication tools. In public school, therapy services were reduced, communication was limited, and classrooms were overwhelmed. Sarah even witnessed firsthand, as a substitute teacher, just how much students with the highest needs were unintentionally pushed aside.

When their family prepared for a military move, Sarah researched every option in the country and discovered No Limits Academy. What she found here changed everything.

In this powerful conversation, Sarah shares:

✨ What it’s like navigating public school as a parent of a nonverbal child

✨ Why communication access changed her daughter’s life

✨ How therapeutic education (our No Limits Method) creates real cognitive progress

✨ The emotional and practical toll on families who feel they have no other options

✨ Why schools must shift from “babysitting and survival” to true education

Laura breaks down the systemic barriers, the failures of the current special education model, and why meaningful change is long overdue — not just for Kate, but for every child with unique abilities.

If you’re a parent, teacher, therapist, or administrator… this episode will challenge what you think education should look like and it will give you hope.

Matthew Joslin’s story is proof that disability does not define destiny.

From being nonverbal and misunderstood to graduating, earning a college degree, and following his calling to become a pastor, Matthew’s story embodies what the No Limits Method is all about: seeing the whole person, not the diagnosis.
