There's still time to join my signature courses! Discovering Dyslexia & Educator's Guide to Dyslexia are only launched in October since I'm busy teaching adorable kids the rest of the year. Dyslexia affects 1 in 5 people and most of them are never officially diagnosed, but that doesn't mean we can't help them! I earned 2 teaching credentials (general and special ed) and still never knew how to teach a child with dyslexia in the way they learn best. So many kids fall through the cracks when...

First, I have to say, I'm soooo excited that over 200 people joined the Dyslexia Challenge! It's been fun reading your responses this weekend! If you've ever seen a kid completely defeated by reading, you know how awful that can be. It crushes your soul to see them struggle with feeling broken and sad! But it doesn't have to be that way... just about all kids can learn to read. In fact, I've actually never met a kid who couldn't. Only a couple that took a million times longer than most. But...

Happy Thursday! It's Dyslexia Awareness Month and I'm blown away by how many people have already joined the Dyslexia Awareness Challenge! (details at the bottom of this email) While I'm super passionate about dyslexia, it's not something enough people understand. Which means a lot of kids fall through the cracks! It's hard when you see a child struggling with reading, but you don't know what to do or what exactly makes it so difficult for them to learn to read in the first place. But I know...

Hey! I'm currently dreaming of a day I can pull out a sweater. It's still been in the 80's and 90's this week and I'd love nothing more than to be able to pull out a comfy sweater again and sip a peppermint mocha! Since I started my business "officially" almost 8 years ago (not counting the trunk of my car years), a lot has changed. What started as a side-hustle to pay off student loans and afford a car has turned into so much more! Here are 3 of the things I'm most grateful for: I'm not...
