In this episode of The Autism Mom Coach, Lisa Candera introduces the concept of clocking the Ta modern take on thought awareness. The T, short for gossip or information, becomes a metaphor for the stories our brains tell us about parenting, behavior, and control.
Lisa explains how our thoughtsour Tsshape how we experience autism parenting. When stress and dysregulation take over, those thoughts become fast, automatic, and usually negative. The result: more guilt, more reactivity, and less capacity to show up the way we want to.
Through real-life examples and practical tools, Lisa shows you how to start clocking the Tpausing long enough to notice your thoughts before they run the show. This simple awareness skill helps you shift from reacting to responding and strengthens your autism parenting mindset: one built on awareness, steadiness, and choice.
