We need relatable hero's when we are Dyslexics. 

Some of us struggle to connect with the multi millionaire as it just seems too far away.  

 I am interviewing more people like Darren Clark who was a trolley boy at his local supermarket and worked his way up the ranks. He escaped to start his own business and support dyslexics across the world.   

Let's not make this too worked (we are dyslexic you know) and enjoy the video.

I'm absolutely delighted to share with you our next guest Robert Keates   Robert will share his journey of being in arts and how he embraced the culture he was in and worked to find his power within his dyslexia which is now fuelling his future as a transformational coach specialising in dyslexia.   Also this will bring up how as a society the belief is that people with dyslexia will thrive within the arts and how that limited view is toxic to the progress of the person. This has influenced his research into creating a model for the learners that will help them find bespoke strategies to work with. The main outcome so far is the joy of exploration.   My aim is to educate, inspire and motivate people to see a different side to Neurodiversty 💙

Im absolutely delighted to share with you our guest Suzy Taylor   

Suzy explains: 

 I am one of the people who acquired dyslexia/dyspraxia. I can link this back to the illness I had as a child.  

I was diagnosed as a child as dyslexic. I did not know about the dyspraxia till later in life.  I had an accident after my work one day. This was through a badly parked van. I did not see the car and was knocked down. I broke my leg 3 times and fractured my ankle. This meant surgery and a period of time off work.  After returning to work I had a lot of problems. I had not realised my dyslexia was a problem.  It had taken months to work out that dyslexia was a problem. I was working in administration and faced years of no support and discrimination. This led me to have a nervous breakdown and left the place I had worked for 20yrs.  Through this I had support from Dyslexia Scotland. I have manged to get my SCQF level 8 in Counselling and Psychotherapy. Done courses with Call Scotland to aid people with dyslexia through technology.
