In this Autism, A New Perspective episode, Kat Lee and Dr. Steven Gutstein explain RDI®, dynamic intelligence, and why parents are essential guides for long-term growth.
Kat Lee and RDI consultant Lisa Palasti talk about autism parenting in 2026, cutting through overload so parents can slow down, lead, and support real growth.
Dr. Steven Gutstein explains why parents are the primary guides in RDI®, how to allocate resources, and how consultants help families start small and build momentum.
In this episode of Autism: A New Perspective, Kat Lee talks with RDI consultant and parent Lisa Palasti about why self-care is essential for families navigating autism. They address common barriers like guilt, time pressure, and lost social connection, and offer realistic steps parents can take now, from prioritizing health appointments to building daily moments of rest and support. When parents thrive, children benefit.
Parenting a child with autism can be demanding, and self-care isn’t selfish, it’s essential. In this episode, learn how to thrive so your child can too.
In Episode 133 of our podcast, Autism: A New Perspective, host Kat Lee sits down once again with RDI® consultant and research psychologist Dr. Tom Atkinson for a candid, compassionate discussion on parental well-being.
