Executive Functioning: A Free Pre-Recorded Workshop

At NEST, we know that executive functioning plays a huge role in day-to-day life.

For many neurodivergent individuals, challenges with these skills can make ordinary tasks - like getting started on work, keeping track of time, or managing emotions - feel overwhelming.

Executive functioning is the set of mental skills that help us:

Plan and organise
Start and complete tasks
Manage time and focus
Regulate emotions and responses

When these skills are difficult, it doesn’t mean someone isn’t capable - it means they need support, strategies, and understanding.

That’s why we’ve created a free pre-recorded workshop on Executive Functioning.

What You’ll Learn

In this session, we’ll explore:

What executive functioning is and how it impacts daily life.
Common challenges neurodivergent people experience with planning, organisation, time management, and emotional regulation.
Practical tips and tools that can help individuals, families, and professionals.
Strategies to highlight strengths and build environments that reduce stress and promote success.

Why a Pre-Recorded Workshop?

We know that schedules, energy levels, and accessibility needs vary.

Offering this session in a pre-recorded format means you can:

Watch at your own pace.
Pause, revisit, and take notes when it suits you.
Share with family, friends, or colleagues who may benefit.

Who Is It For?

This workshop is for anyone impacted by neurodivergence - directly or through supporting someone else. That includes:

Neurodivergent individuals who want to better understand their own executive functioning.
Families and carers are looking for strategies to support their loved ones.
Professionals in education, health, or community settings who work alongside neurodivergent people.
