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.

I'm super boring but also have a pretty great life in a lot of ways. Two things can be true at the same time. That was my motivation for this week's podcast... On the Podcast: What does dyslexia look like in the long run?Kids can have dyslexia AND become awesome, successful people! I have friends with dyslexia who are teachers, CEOs, forestry workers, and tech people who are all very successful humans. Sometimes it takes baby steps to get there. It takes assistive technology and supportive friends and family. But eventually, most of them will be just fine! Even if it doesn't seem like it when they are struggling kids. Listen to this week's episode to hear more. Resources from this episode (affiliate): |
