Is Executive Functioning Real? 20 years of ADHD research says... maybe?

In this episode of The ADHD Skills Lab, Skye and I explore the critical question: is executive functioning even real or is it a poorly defined construct that's been misunderstood for decades?

Curious what's inside?

• What the DSM says about executive function..
• What's the difference between an executive function task vs. executive function measure?
• Some ADHD'ers may not struggle with executive dysfunction at all.
  • CTA: If this is you, let us know! I have follow-up questions!

Thanks for being here! Until next time,
Sarah Russell (Podcast Producer)

Diagnosed with ADHD at the start of her PhD, Skye Waterson spent years researching what actually works and writing about it for thousands of founders. The pattern she kept finding: ADHD business owners don't have a focus problem, they have an operations problem, because the whole business runs through their own head. Now she and her husband, former programmer Robert Waterson, work as fractional COOs for those founders. They find the bottleneck, hire the fix, and build the system that holds.
