Grandma Has ADHD: Jami Shapiro shares executive function supports for seniors (and all of us!) Ep 65

from The Executive Function Podcast · host Sarah Kesty, Brain Tools School

Team,My new friend Jami Shapiro had me at the title of her podcast, "Grandma Has ADHD." And, while it's funny and memorable, it's also an important perspective to consider: how do we address executive function needs, as seniors or those who love and support them? How do we ensure seniors are included in the neurodiversity conversations? Jami shares her story and some great strategies that help all of us. All my love to you!SarahJami's podcast: /https://grandmahasadhd.com/About Jami: Jami Shapiro, the Founder of Silver Linings Transitions, was inspired to build the company after facing a cancer diagnosis in her early 30s. After starting Silver Linings Transitions, Jami’s fifteen-year marriage ended and she saw personally how difficult it is for women to re-enter the workforce (whether or not it’s a result of divorce after taking time off to raise children), especially in a meaningful way. Her company allows her to combine her passion for helping helping women balancing home and work, develop the skills and confidence necessary to compete in today’s job market while also helping clients who need extra nurturing and compassion during tough times.More ways to get support: ICD:Institute for Challenging DisorganizationNASSMM:National Association of Senior & Specialty Move ManagersNAPONational Association of Productivity and Organizing
