What people Are Saying

This weekend has been a roller coaster

Melanie K., Mom of a 10-year-old girl

"Seth, I’m sitting here watching a session and I’m crying. I'm trying to hold back the sobs. It’s not even so much the sadness of past failings for my child but overwhelming hope and relief that I have more insight to help my son going forward. After watching Jessica McCabe’s session I hugged my husband and apologized for forgetting that he has ADHD and things can be hard for him. Oh my. This weekend has been a rollercoaster. Thank you Seth so much for putting this together. I bought the VIP Pass and can’t wait to dive back in. :)"

empowering my child to lead their own learning

Jolene S., Mom to a 7th Grader

"TEFOS covered topics such as sensory processing, ADHD, study skills, reducing stress through self-regulation, dealing with my child’s inner critic, creating a growth mindset, how to deal with complicated or negative emotions related to learning... Additionally, it focused on empowering my child to lead their own learning, eliminating physiological problems that might interfere with learning, and SO MUCH MORE!"

I loved the creativity, passion, competence, and caring [the speakers] brought for our families

Riah T., SLP and Parent of a 2e 6-year-old

"TEFOS is amazing and so very helpful. As a parent, partner, and professional fully immersed in 2e issues, I learned so much from the speakers. I loved the creativity, passion, competence, and caring they all brought for our families. All of these talks were so helpful and some were downright mind-blowing."

A-MAZEEE-ing!!!

Karen

"Wow, I just watched your VIP Bundle!!! Seth amazing!!! A-MAZEEE-ing!!! I have been watching your summit for years, since year 1 or 2, and what you have pulled together is soooooo fabulous."

Gratitude

Theresa

"You have done so much for my family with the information you have provided. I hope you realize what a gift you are to the twice-exceptional and neurodivergent community. I really cannot express my gratitude enough :)"

We feel heard.

Patty

"TEFOS was so helpful. After trying various approaches, I feel like we're starting to get it. Seth, when you present, it is clear how much you care and we feel heard. Thank you for TEFOS. We feel empowered to practice kindness, self-regulation/care, and patience in a new way."

Are there live events during TEFOS?

Yes! TEFOS is more than a collection of expert workshops.

During the summit, we’ll also have live events, community conversations, and a live session with Seth Perler about how to take what you’ve learned during TEFOS and actually apply it during the school year ahead.

You’ll also have opportunities to ask questions and connect with people who understand the challenges you’re navigating.

Motivation, attention & follow-through
Emotional regulation
Planning, organization & time management
Homework, studying & school success
Friendship & social skills
Self-advocacy

Supporting neurodivergent kids at home and in the classroom
Preparing teens and young adults for greater independence

With 80+ expert workshops, you can choose the sessions that best match the challenges you’re dealing with right now.

Does my child need an ADHD, autism, or other diagnosis?

No.

TEFOS can be helpful whether or not your child has a formal diagnosis.

If your child struggles with things like getting started, focus, motivation, homework, organization, planning, time management, emotional regulation, remembering things, follow-through, overwhelm, transitions, or independence, you’ll find workshops designed to help you better understand what’s going on and discover practical ways to support them.

TEFOS is for parents and educators of kids with a wide range of learning and Executive Function challenges — diagnosed or not.

Does my child even have Executive Function challenges?

If your child struggles with things like this, then yes:

Focus, homework, getting started, follow through, organization, planning, being on time, distractibility, remembering important things, prioritizing the important things over the fun things when it matters, decision making, being responsible, managing overwhelm or emotions.

Is TEFOS only for parents?

TEFOS is for parents, caregivers, teachers, educators, coaches, and other professionals who support kids and young adults with Executive Function and learning challenges.

You’ll find TEFOS especially relevant if you’re supporting someone who struggles with motivation, attention, emotional regulation, homework, organization, time management, follow-through, self-advocacy, transitions, or independence.

You don’t need to be an Executive Function expert — TEFOS is designed to help you understand more and walk away with practical strategies you can actually use.

Can I help Seth get the word out?

Finally, if TEFOS helps you, I have an ask...

💪 The experts I interview are here to help change lives, because there are countless kids out there who are misunderstood, and not getting the support they need.

🔗 So sharing the homepage link is the best way to help parents and teachers find us!

💙 So please help share the link https://ExecutiveFunctionSummit.com/ or tefos26.com far and wide, with friends, groups, or on social to help me get the word out!

In gratitude and service,

Seth Perler
