Raising or teaching a twice-exceptional (2e) student can feel like solving a puzzle where the pieces don’t always fit. One moment, they’re showcasing incredible creativity and intelligence—building robots, composing music, or solving complex math problems in their heads. The next, they’re missing assignments, struggling with organization, or having emotional meltdowns over seemingly small things.

In this episode of Executive Function for All, we sit down with Heather Hodge, a neuropsychologist specializing in twice-exceptional students, to break down the complexities of 2e learners. We explore the challenges of asynchronous development, executive function struggles, and the unique emotional landscape of these students. Heather shares expert strategies for nurturing their strengths while managing their challenges, offering invaluable insights for parents, educators, and professionals.

Tune in to learn how to support your 2e student with the tools they need to thrive both academically and emotionally.

🎧 Listen now and empower your twice-exceptional student to reach their full potential!

ADHD isn’t just about attention—it’s about executive function, brain structure, and how we navigate life. In this episode, neuropsychologist Dr. Chris Gioielli breaks down the neurological origins of ADHD, the impact of executive function deficits, and the latest research on interventions that actually work. We discuss the role of stimulant medication, executive function coaching, and whether ADHD is truly a 'superpower' or a challenge that needs the right support. If you're a student, parent, or educator, this conversation will change the way you think about ADHD and how to manage it effectively.
