À propos de cet audio
In Episode 167 of The Autism Mom Coach Podcast, Lisa Candera—a lawyer, life coach, and solo mom to a teenager with autism—tackles one of the most emotionally loaded questions for autism parents: Should I push my child out of their comfort zone or give them more support?
Using a real-life story from a coaching client, Lisa explains:
✅ Why there's no perfect moment to act
✅ How to treat parenting decisions like experiments
✅ What “friction” actually means in your child’s growth
✅ How to move forward even when things don’t go perfectly
✅ And why sometimes... you have to break some chairs
🎧 This episode is a must-listen if you're stuck in second-guessing or afraid of doing too much (or too little) for your child.
