Meet Sarah Kesty - Your Teen's New Executive Function Guide!
When I discovered that most of my students were struggling because they were lacking skills not intelligence, I began to innovate lessons and coaching sessions to fill the executive function gaps and catch kids up! After years of hearing from colleagues and parents that these strategies had profound positive impacts, I wondered how I could share these ideas and help even more students! Through my podcast, courses, and coaching, I now help students, parents, educators, and therapists who are struggling with invisible missing skills.
I’m honored to write, present, and coach around the world, to a variety of audiences. My forthcoming book will help teachers support executive function development in students. When I’m not working, you’ll find me hiking, gardening, cooking, or enveloping myself in my wonderful family and friends.

When you get to the checkout you’ll enter YOUR contact information (not your teens) and pay for the program (for both you and them - one registration fee gives you both access).
Once you’ve registered, you’ll provide your teen’s contact information and we’ll ensure that they get an email to set their password to gain access to the full Life After High School program.
As soon as you register you’ll also get access to the program overview, the quick tools vault, a special message from Sarah Kesty, and access to Module 1 so you can see firsthand what your teen/young adult is going to be doing/learning.
The course is designed to be completed in 21 weeks, with 3 weeks of “buffer time” to catch up, review, or go deeper by using coach support to apply their favorite new tools.
You start when your family is ready, having 6 months of learning and coaching!
It is normal to be worried that your teen may struggle to engage. We built the program with this concern in mind, using teen feedback and a deep understanding of the teen brain. We’ve gamified participation, allowing students to earn and redeem rewards along the way. We’ve made the videos short, uplifting, and easy to apply right away. And, the coaching? It’s the secret sauce! Your teen will love time with Sarah and the program coaches, feeling heard, understood, and deeply cared for.
Your teen will be able to share their participation and completion inside of their program dashboard. Many families incentivize their teen to start and stick with the program, offering rewards for milestones like one month completion or completing so many hours or activities. You may also consider making a routine of talking about the program each week, for accountability and the chance to celebrate your teen’s growth!
Sarah is an ADHD and autism expert, and Life After High School is a 2024 CHADD (Children and Adults with ADHD) Innovative Program. A former member of CAPTAIN (a California state autism education expert group), Sarah designed Life After High School to honor and give tools for every brain. Neurodivergent brains thrive with Sarah’s approach!
Life After High School is based in brain science, research on academic strategies, pragmatic and social communication tools, and real-world strategies from Sarah’s 20 years in education and from 2000 students in the classroom and in coaching. The tools work. They have transformed the lives of hundreds of teens and young adults. It’s your teen’s time to shine!
Weekly coaching is designed to support students at any point in the program. There is no need to worry if your child is unable to watch the videos one week or needs to miss a coaching session. Our program is designed with real life in mind! The last three weeks of Life After High School offer students a chance to catch up, review, or go deeper with their learning, as no new required videos will be added at that time.
Your teen may take a while to warm up to coaching in a group. That’s ok. Attending coaching without asking for individual support is still powerful; your teen is able to hear from others with similar problems and watch them find solutions with expert coaching! Group coaching will offer different methods of engagement and participation, so your teen will not be left out if they are not yet ready to ask for individual coaching at first. Sarah is able to reach students who may feel resistant or shy at the beginning. There is space for everyone, and we honor that your teen may need time to acclimate to group coaching.
Having executive function struggles can be isolating and lonely. Whether they voice it or not, our teens are likely wondering why they have challenges and comparing themselves to their peers. Having a safe group to come to is an incredible gift. Our teens realize quickly that they are not alone, their struggles are both real and solvable, and the group has their back. Many students are able to form connections that extend outside of coaching, many building into real-life friendships!
In addition to the weekly video lessons and resources, we offer weekly group coaching sessions, access to a private community, and direct support from Sarah Kesty.

As mentioned above, it is normal for students to take a while to get into a new routine, and you may be worried that your teen will engage inconsistently. The course is designed with teen (and neurodivergent) brains in mind; it is engaging, supportive, and flexible, offering many ways to learn and grow. The program will offer strategies and support to set up systems, routines, and accountability from the start, so your teen or young adult completes (and loves) the learning and coaching program. Built-in gamification allows your teen to earn rewards for participation and coaching builds a unique connection and accountability for them.
View the full refund policy here.
Your teen will have 6 months of access to the course materials. Teens will have an option to extend their learning and coaching, if they would like to at the end of their program.
Life After High School empowers young adults to thrive in college, trade or tech school, and work settings. The academic skills developed are broad and will help in any setting; together, we learn to read efficiently, write well, and handle big projects!
