from Dyslexia Is Our Superpower Podcast

"Never be ashamed of what it is. The only reason dyslexia will ever be a problem in your life is if you don't tell people about it. Tell them about it as soon as you think you are, as soon as you are diagnosed tell people and start to wear it as your badge. It will always be who you are. Your decision is whether you try and hide it and hence hide who you really or you wear it brazenly like a badge; this is who I am and be proud of who you are and be proud of your dyslexia." -Jodie Adam, The Dyslexic Writer  Check out Jodie's website here. This will also bring you to the page to send him your own dyslexic story to be included in his upcoming book, The Freedom To Make Mistakes.
