Homework struggles aren’t always about motivation. Sometimes, the biggest obstacles are invisible, like executive function challenges or stress overload. In this episode, we will discover what’s really going on when kids avoid or resist assignments, why your go-to solutions might not be working, and how to take a fresh approach that actually helps. If you’re tired of nagging and want a smarter way forward, this is your next listen.

What to expect in this episode:

• Why executive function impacts every stage of the homework process
• The 12 invisible steps kids must take to complete and turn in homework
• How stress, motivation, and “effort tax” complicate even simple assignments
• Why planners fail and what to do instead
