Ever look at your ADHD kid and think, "I know they want to do well — so why can't they just get started?" This week, cognitive engineer and ADHD coach Jeff Copper joins Elaine to break down a completely new way of understanding motivation and executive function. You'll learn why "unmotivated" is almost always the wrong word, why extra time isn't the accommodation you think it is, and why talking things through with your kid might be one of the most powerful tools you have. This one's dense — you may want to listen twice. Tap in for a total shift in how you see effort, motivation, and what your ADHD kid is actually up against.
What to expect in this episode:
- A new way to understand ADHD motivation using Dr. Russell Barkley's two-brain model
- Why calling executive function an "impairment" can actually reduce shame, not increase it
- Why rewards and willpower fall short as long-term motivation strategies
- Why extra time isn't the relief parents assume it is
- Why talking things through with your kid is a real, research-backed accommodation
