In this episode of The Curious Incident Podcast, NYC special education attorney Adam Dayan speaks with Lisa Candera attorney and founder of The Autism Mom Coach, about the realities of parenting a child with autism. Drawing on her experience raising a son with severe autism, OCD, and anxiety, Lisa explains why meaningful change often begins with a parent's own self-regulation. She discusses how chronic stress and hypervigilance can leave parents dysregulated and how learning to ground themselves can transform meltdowns, school challenges, and family dynamics. From radical acceptance and managing comorbidities to approaching IEP meetings with clarity and confidence, this conversation underscores a powerful truth: regulated parents become steadier leaders, stronger advocates, and a calming force amid uncertainty.
