In this blog, I want to share my personal experiences and insights into how dyslexia have empowered me to think differently, persevere through adversity, and contribute to raising awareness about dyslexia.

Creativity Unleashed:

Overcoming hurdles is second nature to individuals with dyslexia. My personal experience has taught me that every setback is an opportunity to learn, adapt, and emerge stronger. This resilience has been a cornerstone in my entrepreneurial ventures

Dyslexia grants a unique lens through which to view the world. It encourages us to embrace diverse perspectives and think beyond the confines of traditional norms. This distinct outlook has been pivotal in my efforts to raise awareness about dyslexia. It enables me to articulate the importance of neurodiversity and advocate for inclusive education, as demonstrated through initiatives like “mDyslexia Show, SEND Group, and now the Studying with Dyslexia Blog.

Through my initiatives like Dyslexia Show and SEND Group, I aim to drive awareness about dyslexia and empower individuals with dyslexia to embrace their strengths.
