In this episode of Grandma Has ADHD, Jami Shapiro talks with ADHD coach Jeff Copper for a powerful conversation about motivation, executive function, and “adaptive accommodations.” Jeff challenges the idea that people with ADHD are lazy or unmotivated, explaining that ADHD is an executive functioning impairment, and that many are working harder, not less. Together, they explore why traditional supports like “extra time” often miss the mark and why reducing cognitive strain through verbal processing, cueing, and collaboration can be far more effective. This episode offers a compassionate, neuroscience-based lens that replaces shame with practical, meaningful support. LISTEN NOW!
