About this listen
In this episode of Executive Function for All, Brandon Slade talks with Licensed Professional Counselor Howard Baumgarten about the emotional side of executive function that often gets overlooked, especially for adults and men with ADHD.
Howard explains how suppression, anxiety, and past experiences show up as procrastination, distraction, and burnout. Instead of pushing harder, real change comes from slowing down, building self-compassion, and learning how to respond rather than react. When the nervous system calms, thinking gets easier, and follow-through becomes possible.
This episode is for adults who feel stuck, parents supporting overwhelmed students, and anyone who has tried routines and strategies without addressing what lies underneath.
🎧 Listen now to learn how compassion unlocks executive function.
