from Dont Call On Me, The Dyslexia Podcast

In this episode of the Don't Call On Me Podcast, Megan and Eryn sit down with Nicola Lott, a passionate advocate for neurodiverse learners. As a dyslexic person from a family of dyslexics, Nicola experienced firsthand the challenges of navigating an education system that wasn't designed for her. From boarding school struggles to discovering her love for teaching in Japan, Nicola's unconventional path led her to become an interventionist, to pursue a master's degree, and to launch an organization supporting Canadian educators.  Nicola shares her insights on what it truly means to support students who learn differently, the barriers families face in the education system, and why diverse voices—including those without traditional teaching degrees—are crucial in shaping the future of education. Tune in for an inspiring conversation on resilience, advocacy, and the power of inclusive education. Dyslexia On Demand  Book a consultation with Megan to discuss CALT therapy.
