Chris Murphy

from The Mistakes That Shaped Me

In this episode, Chris shares his powerful journey of living with dyslexia and how, for years, he saw it as an obstacle to overcome. He opens up about the pivotal moment when he realised his unique way of processing information was actually a superpower — one that unlocked new levels of creativity and problem-solving. Chris reflects on the unexpected advantages of thinking differently in a world built around standardisation, and how embracing his cognitive style shifted everything. This conversation goes far beyond dyslexia; it’s a thought-provoking reminder to reconsider the parts of ourselves we’ve been taught to hide or “fix” — and to explore what might be possible if we chose to embrace them instead. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
