Screenshot essay titled 'What is Executive Function Anyway?' by a mental health coach with ADHD. The content explains executive function as the brain's management system for daily life, involving working memory, cognitive flexibility, and inhibition control. It describes working memory's role in remembering tasks, cognitive flexibility in transitioning and empathizing, and inhibition control in resisting distractions. The frontal lobe is identified as responsible for executive function, noting its unique operation in individuals with ADHD. The essay offers positive reinforcement, stating executive function can be improved through memory games, mindfulness, exercise, and a specific balance training plan three times a week. The author encourages readers to consider steps they can take to enhance their own executive function.

Struggling with working memory or task switching? That's your executive function. 🧠
If you have ADHD, this system works differently. The good news? You can train it.
Learn simple, playful ways to strengthen your executive function.

A librarian (a Black nonbinary person with red cat-eye glasses and an N95 mask) stands at the library desk, speaking to two teens (one a white person with green hair and the other a brown femme with curly brown hair in a wheelchair).  The Librarian says, "I've been working on a YA comic... and I think it's ready to pitch at #kidlit GN in 7 weeks!"

I’m on one of my favorite podcasts today!

We talk about my Social Justice Dreaming workshop (new one begins August 8) and the revamp of my website where I offer dreamwork and energy work. Oh, and my comic.

And we also gab about celebrities we have met and our mutual admiration for Pedro Pascal.

An Open Letter to My Fellow Book Creators β€” Pretty Ok Maggie Inside me there are two wolves: the one that understands that the best activism happens behind closed doors and that everyone does what they can and that not everyone can be asked to do the same thing...

I wrote an open letter to my fellow book ppl because no one is coming to save us.

We have to save us.

And I am weary of waiting for my colleagues to join the fight. Any fight. I chose book bans, but you don't have to

We will be discussing the ways these practices have been co-opted by capitalism and I will help you be mindful of appropriation and search for practices within your own culture.

Although we will be exploring esoteric and spiritual topics, this workshop is rooted in social justice and is pandemic-realisti, anti-racist, pro-Palestine, anti-ableist, anti-sanist, and 2SLGBTQIA+ affirming. Our spaces will prioritize the most marginalized.

It’s a workshop where you can learn intuitive practices for receiving information and guidance, deepening reflection, and taking action. Plus, you’ll meet other folks like you!

Intuitives, introverts, neurodivergent folks, and chronically ill and disabled folks need ways to help too! That’s why I created Social Justice Dreaming.

Things are beyond intense out there. A lot of people are wondering how to build community, plug in, and make change. Not everyone is extroverted and comfortable being in crowds or talking on the phone or video, which are traditional modes of activism.
