A 90-day journal that targets and strengthens core executive functions
Building self-awareness so you can operate independently and succeed confidently.
If your child has executive function deficits, you’ve probably been struggling with how to help them.
They’re smart and capable, but daily life — for both of you — feels way harder than it should.
Kids with Executive Dysfunction (with or without ADHD) Frequently:
▶ Feel overwhelmed by even simple tasks
▶ Struggle with low confidence when they fall behind
▶ Appear unmotivated because they don’t know where to start
▶ Lack self-awareness about how their actions affect outcomes
▶ Become disorganized and lose track of responsibilities
▶ Are forgetful, even with important tasks
▶ Have trouble managing time, leading to constant stress
The Good News: Executive Functions Aren’t Fixed.
They Can Be Strengthened with Consistent Practice.
Executive function skills aren’t fixed traits. They’re like muscles: they grow stronger with the right kind of practice.
The challenge? Most kids never get the chance to practice them in a structured, consistent way.
That’s where the Executive Function Journal comes in.
In less than 7 minutes a day, this 90-day journal helps students build self-awareness — the foundation of executive functions — so they can strengthen skills like planning, organization, time management, flexible thinking, and follow-through.

What Others Are Saying
More Details
You want your child to succeed. But, for that to happen, they need certain types of skills to operate independently.
The problem? Your child may have executive function deficits, which makes them feel dependent, overwhelmed, incapable, and disorganized.
Every child deserves to function independently and confidently, but I also understand the daily struggle of managing basic routines and completing tasks.
That's why I created the Executive Function Journal with over 18 years of educational experience, a Master's Degree in special education, and thousands of private clients.
The ability to operate independently and succeed confidently is priceless. So are the skills required to do so.
Get The Executive Function Journal alone or with the Companion Guide (recommended).
Users will start a new Journal every 90 days, but will only ever need one Companion Guide.
The Journal is also available as a 4-pack for uninterrupted use throughout a full year. Each bundle offers a savings discount.
This is not just another journal. While the Journal is “journal-like” in appearance, the pages are unique in their specific targeting of the most important skills your child will ever need.
