→ ADHD & EF: The Real Relationship — related but not identical; includes the interest-based nervous system and late diagnosis
→ The Translation Table — eight behaviors that look like character problems, translated into accurate EF mechanisms
→ Your EF Profile — self-assessment across all 10 skills to identify your highest-priority areas
→ The Strategy Toolkit — strategies organized by the specific EF skill they address
→ The Language Shift Guide — ten language replacements from self-blame to self-awareness
→ Building Systems That Hold — four principles for systems that survive a hard Thursday, plus a restart protocol
Who this is for: College students with ADHD or EF challenges. Students who have struggled without a clear explanation. Anyone who has been told to "just try harder" and needs a better framework.
