Episode 82: Sarah Ward | Executive Functioning Skills Skills for You and Your Children

The Social Exchange

Welcome to episode 82! I

t's been a while (sorry!)

Today I spoke with Sarah Ward M.S., CCC/SLP and Co-Director of Cognitive Connections, LLP. We discussed strategies that she has developed-- for both children and adults-- to sharpen their executive functioning skills to enhance learning and life.

Examples of the skills that Sarah works with people to enhance:

• planning and organization
• concentrating and managing mental focus
• analyzing and processing information
• managing emotions and behavior
• remembering details
• managing time
• multitasking
• solving problems

AND MORE!

We also discussed the limitations of diagnoses as well as the overuse of the term "motivation". And many more topics.

I hope that the discussion provides you with value, including practical examples to use on your own, or as instruction and help for others you care for.
