96: Kat's Dyslexic Advantage: From Diagnosis to Distinction
Description
Dyslexia isn’t entirely bad; it can also be advantageous. In fact, many people with dyslexia exhibit high levels of creativity and exceptional problem-solving skills. Moreover, dealing with the challenges of dyslexia from an early age can foster resilience, perseverance, and determination.
We’re graced by the presence of Kat who is a dyslexic and an advocate for others with neurodivergent brains. I’ve worked with her throughout her neuropsych testing, neurofeedback, and testing for dyslexia. Today’s episode is of significance as she shares her story and inspires other kids and worried parents.
