Hey there, it's Debbie. For the month of November, I'll be sharing some of my favorite past

episodes all about executive functioning, the set of skills that help our kids plan,

organize, regulate, and follow through. Every Friday, you'll find an episode in your feed

exploring topics like motivation, time management, flexibility, and scaffolding.

If your child's executive function challenges have been

showing up more lately, these conversations will give you some fresh insights and practical tools to

help. Welcome to Tilt Parenting, a podcast featuring interviews and conversations aimed at

inspiring, informing, and supporting parents raising differently wired kids.

I'm your host, Debbie Reber, and this week I'm bringing back to the podcast a previous guest,

Executive Function Coach Seth Perler, for a two-part series in which Seth shares with us the exact approach he uses with students he works with when helping them foster their

fledgling executive

function skills. When I first had Seth on the show, he gave us an introduction to executive

function, but we didn't get into the more practical strategies I know so many of us are looking

for. So I asked Seth to come back on and that conversation turned into an hour and a half

long sharing by Seth of

truly valuable tips and strategies and insights. Because I realize you have lives to lead and things

to do and because Seth shares so very much over the course of these 90 minutes or so,

I decided to split our conversation into two parts. So today is part one of what I'm now referring to

as a master class and executive function. In this episode, Seth shares with us his protocol

for setting up a child for success in their developing executive function skills. Then in part

two next week, Seth will go deep into a specific strategy surrounding building

these skills in school and in life.
