Can we really support our executive functions using movement? Well actually, turns out you can!

On this episode of The ADHD Skills Lab, Skye and Sarah want to talk to you about what you can actually do to support your executive functioning, according to the latest ADHD research.


Curious about what's inside?

  • Explaining how intentional movement boosts cognition.
  • What's play got to do with it?
  • Some personal reveals from your favorite podcast hosts!


Make sure to head over to IG and DM Skye the word "PLAY" and she will send you a list of 30ish ways to play! Because not everyone has time to brainstorm an entire list...

Sarah Russell (Podcast Producer)
