Are you an adult with dyslexia? Maybe you are a parent of a dyslexic teenager or have a partner you know has dyslexia. This podcast could be just for you.
My name is Stephen and at the age of 38 I have been on a journey for the last few years to discover more about my dyslexia & ADHD. I share stories and learnings that go beyond reading, writing and spelling challenges. Life lessons around communication, work, relationships and navigating the visual mind.
I wish I had known what I know today about how my dyslexic mind works when I was younger. This podcast is to help people like me.

I recommend This to everyone
So much to learn imo that you just don’t find anywhere else in one spot! Really thankful for this!
Ahhh fellow dyslexic :)
I love this podcast:) I just started listening and as a fellow creative dyslexic so many of your episodes resonate with me. I’d love to see you do an episode on your childhood. What it was like growing up with this dyslexia. Any funny stories. Or any ways your teachers tried to teach you in an alternative way but that just ended up embarrassing you! I’m still new to your podcast so I have lot of catching up. So if you already talked about those forgive me :)
