If you’re parenting a tween or teen who struggles with organization, time management, follow-through, or transitions, this talk is packed with practical, realistic strategies you can start using right away. Becky focused on how executive functioning is a skill set that has to be taught and practiced, not a character flaw or a lack of motivation. She emphasized that ADHD isn’t about knowing what to do—it’s about being able to do it at the right time, in the right way.

In our latest ADHDKC Conversations episode, we dive into the fascinating (and sometimes frustrating) intersection of attention, technology, and the developing brain. Our guest, Sean McCormick from Executive Function Specialists, joins us to unpack how today’s tech tools are designed to capture attention and deliver instant gratification — and what that means for teens whose brains are still developing self-regulation and planning skills.

Dr. Kristen Stuppy and Sara Whelan sit down with pediatrician, author, and child-mental-health advocate Dr. Natasha Burgert, MD, FAAP for a powerful and practical conversation about ADHD, anxiety, and the kids who experience both.
