Discover what executive function and executive dysfunction is, and who executive dysfunction affects. (Hint: It’s about Neurodivergent vs Neurotypical.)

What is executive function? It’s a cognitive process that has absolutely NOTHING to do with intellectual ability and, when dysfunctional, can result in procrastination, anxiety, depression, the appearance of “laziness,” and other mental health problems. You’re NOT lazy. If you have executive dysfunction adhd, executive dysfunction autism, or neurodivergent executive dysfunction, you’re just neurospicy. There’s NOTHING wrong with you. It’s time to work with your brain instead of against it. 💖
