Does your child, student or client constantly forgetting what you just said? Struggling to follow directions, stay organized, or complete schoolwork? You’re not alone — and it’s not a behavior problem. It may be lower working memory.

In this episode of The Autism ADHD Podcast, I breaks down what working memory really is, why it’s often misunderstood, and how it impacts everything from transitions to conversations to homework. 

Most importantly — you'll walk away with compassionate, neurodiversity-affirming strategies that actually help at home, in the classroom, and beyond.

You’ll Learn:

• What working memory is and why it’s so important

• How working memory fits into executive functioning

• Everyday examples of low working memory (and why they’re so frustrating)

• Why stress makes working memory even harder

• Components of the Working Memory

• How to support kids with low working memory at home and school

• Practical strategies that reduce overwhelm
