Question 1

Will I need to manage or monitor my student after this workshop?

Accepted Answer

No. This workshop is designed to reduce the pressure on parents—not increase it. You’ll gain understanding of what actually helps, and what often makes things worse. Ongoing responsibility stays with the student, not you.

Question 2

My student resists “help.” Will this feel like an intervention?

Accepted Answer

No. The workshop is centered on student autonomy and dignity. Nothing is framed as fixing or forcing change. Most students feel relieved, not defensive, because the focus is on understanding—not blame.

Question 3

Is this just another productivity or study skills workshop?

Accepted Answer

No. This is about executive functioning—how students manage time, tasks, energy, and follow-through in a college environment. Productivity tips without support often fail; this workshop explains why and what actually works.

Question 4

Will this replace therapy, tutoring, or medication?

Accepted Answer

No. This workshop complements other supports by focusing specifically on executive functioning skills and real-world systems. It’s not clinical, diagnostic, or academic tutoring.
