  • From Academic Struggles to Social Challenges: Understanding & Supporting Processing Speed Differences

    From Academic Struggles to Social Challenges: Understanding & Supporting Processing Speed Differences
    Aug 21 2025

    Ever wonder why it takes three hours to do 20 minutes of homework? Or why they freeze up when you ask them to get dressed? Join me, Holly Blanc Moses, and special guest, Leila Beikmohomadi, as we take a deep dive into processing speed differences in ADHD and autistic children and teens. We also share our lived experience with processing speed differences!

    What Parents, Therapists & Educators Will Learn:

    • What processing speed actually is (hint: it's not about intelligence)
    • How slower processing speed shows up at home and school
    • Why anxiety makes processing speed even slower
    • The mental health impact on kids who feel constantly behind
    • Practical accommodations and strategies that actually work
    • Why "hurry up" never helps and what to do instead

  • The Hidden Executive Function That Affects Everything from Math to Meltdowns in Autistic and ADHD Kids

    The Hidden Executive Function That Affects Everything from Math to Meltdowns in Autistic and ADHD Kids
    Aug 7 2025

    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

  • The Social Skill That Protects the Mental Health of Autistic & ADHD Kids

    The Social Skill That Protects the Mental Health of Autistic & ADHD Kids
    Jul 30 2025
    When your neurodivergent child, client or student faces social rejection, how do you protect their self-worth while still helping them grow? Join Dr. Daniel Wendler and me, Holly Blanc Moses, for game-changing mindset shifts that support mental health. This isn't about lowering expectations or avoiding social situations. It's about teaching kids to measure success by how authentically they show up, not by other people's responses. We discuss why this approach actually leads to better social connections AND stronger mental health.
