I'm not here to put more stuff on your plate.
A lot of what we're going to talk about today, you're going to find is stuff that's already on your plate.
And I'm just asking you to look at it from another perspective to make your life easier in the long run.
It might be a little bit harder in the first six months to a year, but after that it's gonna be easier for the rest of your career.
So it's that kind of stuff.
Like it's recognizing the challenges that they already have and what's already frustrating for them.
And trying to alleviate those challenges while providing them with professional development around anxiety or task initiation or ADHD or executive function or whatever the case may be.

Um, I make sure to talk about time awareness and the struggles that folks with ADHD have around time awareness.

A month if you're really lucky.
And I haven't met too many people with ADHD who can go out that far.
And oftentimes the time horizon is a day away.
