Introducing Rhonda Spellman. . . .
Speaker, Author, Coach, Autism Advocate, President & CEO
In 2003, Rhonda founded her first publishing business, Bound By Faith Publishing. Her first book “When I Was a Little Boy, by Jesus”, was published two months before she was told that her first son had autism. This EVVY award winning book , illustrated by children, launched her mission to work with children.
Her business name later changed to Artos Press Enterprises to reflect her broader outreach. Artos: an acronym for family members is Greek for ‘unleavened blessed bread’. A surprise blessing.

Rhonda suspected that her son had a wheat and/or dairy intolerance based on his behaviors that included chronic constipation vacillating with chronic diarrhea, confusion, hyperactivity, dilated pupils and more. All tests came back ‘inconclusive’. Rhonda used the ‘Cave Man Diet’ and created her own recipes to completely remove gluten and casein. Within 24 hours on his new diet, her son exhibited a significant improvement in his reciprocal conversation and focusing.
