Practice in Action: Check the Why, Not Just the What
Description
This episode explores how naming and checking intention — the deeper “why” behind a goal — helps clients (especially those with ADHD and executive-function challenges) keep going when motivation fades. Paul explains how intention works with common tools (SMART goals, time blocking, task chunking) and gives concrete examples clinicians can use in-session to build lasting buy-in, turn shame into course-correcting fuel, and decide the right frequency to revisit a client’s why. Listeners will leave with simple, session-ready questions and examples (like reframing a vague “eat healthier” goal into a measurable nutrition target tied to the intention of having energy to play with kids) that make follow-through more likely.
