Dyslexia Devoted by Lisa Parnello

the number that made my jaw drop 🤯

Happy Thursday!

Hope you are doing well as I know many storms hit this past week or two around the US. There has been plenty of rain here on the west coast!

I've gotten lots of positive feedback about the writing training that for now I'm calling the Writing Booster Workshop (but could make a title change for later).

What day would be best for a LIVE Writing Booster workshop? Note: it will never be before 11:00 am ET. It will also be recorded for those who register to receive if they can't attend live.

  • Friday?
  • Saturday?
  • Sunday?
  • On-demand instead of live?

My jaw dropped...

when I met with a potential client and she told me the rate she was quoted for one session of educational therapy...

$300 per session!!

Are you kidding me? Is the teacher made of gold?!

The other rate she was quoted was also much higher than I expected and certainly more than I charge.

But that motivated me to publish the podcast episode I've been thinking about recording for months now.

Take a listen!

Happy Thursday! This week went super far off the plan! I unexpectedly had 3 kids this weekend after their mom's car broke down. Plus I had the littlest one again last night. 3 kids ages 1-14, there was ZERO chance I would be recording the podcast this week. Sorry friend, but if you have a great question, hit reply and maybe it will be next week's episode! In the meantime, here is a special "Just because..." bonus promo code just for being an awesome subscriber to the newsletter. Promo Code:...

Happy Thursday! This week had got to uninstall and reinstall a toilet this weekend. Did you know I had talents beyond teaching kids to read? I actually got more done on my "to do" list this past week than I have finished in a month! Maybe it's all this glories sunshine this week! My handyman adventures this weekend inspired this week's episode of the podcast (link below) Facts about dyslexia you probably didn't know: Up to 25% of CEOs and founders of major businesses have dyslexia Dyslexia...

Happy Thursday! I was chatting with a random, kind lady standing next to me on my break between clients last week. She made a comment about how cool my life sounds... but she doesn't know the full story. I said I had just gotten back from Portugal and that I'd been traveling to Europe a lot in recent years. But there is 90% of my life that is utterly boring! I take awesome vacations because in my real world: I work far too much Spend far too much time with my mom and my dog Almost never go...
