Modeling is a powerful form of teaching.

Demonstrating how a skill looks is often much more effective than describing it.

This is true for executive function development too.

(Note: Modeling alone is not an effective form of teaching for all children. Please see the last slide for more details.)

Motivation is unreliable.

Energy is real.

Instead of asking “Why am I not motivated?”

Try asking, “How much energy do I have for this today?”

When we learn to work with the energy we have instead of waiting for motivation, progress finally becomes sustainable.

Rapport first. Safety first.

The brain needs to feel safe in order to access and use its executive function skills for self-regulation.

Creating a physically, mentally and emotionally safe environment is a critical factor when learning how to support executive function development in our students-something Jordan’s third grade teacher learned in my Cohort.

Rozlie said what so many SLPs feel:

We don’t just need more CEUs.
We need a community that helps us connect, reflect, and actually grow in a safe space.

“I have found more use in the couple hours I’ve spent in Tera’s community than any CEU I have ever taken.”
— Rozlie Potts, SLP

If you’ve been looking for a place where learning feels meaningful, practical, supported, and safe… this is it.

The Cohort Community is open now, and the holiday break is the perfect time to:
🌱 explore the spaces
📝 print your workbook journal
✨ get familiar with the platform
📚 check out all the resources
…so you’re fully ready when the EF Cohort begins on January 16.

NOTE: If you join by January 2, you will have access to all of last Cohort’s bonus resources.

Start the new year surrounded by people who “get it,” and are making huge differences in the lives of their students.

So many kids grow up thinking something is wrong with them… when really, no one ever taught them how their brain works.

When we give children the language, tools, and self-understanding they’ve been missing, everything changes.

They stop feeling “behind” and start feeling capable. They stop masking and start owning who they are. They stop trying to fit into systems and start learning how to lead themselves.

That’s the heart of executive function.
Not perfection.
Not compliance.
But identity, agency, and freedom.

Helping a child understand their mind isn’t just good teaching,

it’s liberation.

Executive function is so much more than a set of skills.

It’s the driving mechanism for so much of our learning.

It literally lights the way.

New routines, late nights, busy days...

The holidays are hard on kids’ executive function.

And while we all want to make this season magical, it helps to keep our expectations realistic. A truly happy holiday comes with patience and understanding.

If things feel a little “extra” right now, that’s normal. Their brains are working overtime...as are yours.

When Mona joined the Cohort, everything finally clicked into place.

In just a few weeks, she began seeing her students differently… and understanding their struggles in ways that changed her entire approach.

“The first few weeks in the Cohort were a game changer… things started to make sense.” — Mona El Rakayby, Teacher

If you’re ready for your own game-changing shift, the Cohort Community is open now, and the holiday break is the perfect time to get settled in, explore the spaces, print your journal, and get ready for the Cohort kickoff on January 16.

Give yourself the gift of clarity this season.

As adults who work with children, we always have a choice: focus on a behavior or determine the needed support.

But if all you see is the behavior, you’ll struggle to support them the way they need to be supported.

You have to be able to see past the behavior in order to see the child who needs support. Then, and only then, will you have the necessary perspective to determine the supports that the child needs.

The next time you go to label a behavior with “that child is …..,” stop yourself and say instead, “it looks like this child needs support with ……”

That alone makes a big difference.

Grateful for a team that loves loudly and serves with intention.

Humbled and grateful today, as I am every day when I reflect on this unbelievable group of humans who I am so blessed to work alongside.

My team came together to support eight local children for Christmas, and I’m so thankful Seeds of Learning® could help make it happen.

And when I told the team that Seeds of Learning® could sponsor eight children, they pulled money personally to sponsor even more! This is my team. They truly have the biggest hearts!

Local Clevelanders, check out for opportunities to get involved with this wonderful organization supporting local women and their children.

Dear Santa, I’ve been extra good this year (I promise!). I’ve tackled challenges, spread kindness, taught thousands of people about EF, and maybe even got close to finishing my to-do list.

So, this Christmas, how about a little extra magic to make my Christmas wish come true? 🤶🎄🎅🏼
