Show Notes

Join Sue for an upcoming Live Virtual Workshop where you will learn from Sue practical tips & strategies to make a difference.

In this episode, we will discuss:

✅ Executive Functioning: Brain's admin team managing planning, organizing, deadlines, emotions. ✅ Autistic Inertia: Difficulty shifting gears from rest to action or stopping. ✅ Environment Over Child: Modify structure, not the child—autism plus environment equals outcome. ✅ Neurological vs Behavioral: Executive functioning issues are can't-do, not lazy won't-do. ✅ Object Permanence Anxiety: Out-of-sight tasks create persistent worry about completion. ✅ Understanding Changes Adults: Why matters more than what for changing practitioner approach. ✅ Neurotypical Privilege: Neurotypical brains process less information; world designed for them.
