درباره این اپیزود
If you've ever stared at a simple task and felt an unexplainable, heavy resistance… you are definitely not alone - and you are not broken!
With the help of psychologist and clinical director Leslee Marcom, we'll unpack the topic of executive functioning and why struggles with organization, time management, procrastination, and task initiation are not signs of laziness or lack of motivation. Our conversation explores what executive functioning is, how it affects daily life, and why challenges are common not only in ADHD but also in anxiety, depression, learning differences, chronic stress, and burnout. Dr. Marcom shares practical, evidence-based strategies to improve focus and follow-through.
This episode is especially helpful for adults with executive functioning challenges, parents and educators supporting kids with ADHD, and anyone looking for realistic tools and compassionate insight into how the brain works.
