from Dont Call On Me, The Dyslexia Podcast

In this inspiring episode of The Don't Call on Me Podcast, Megan and Eryn sit down with Scott Lindsey—a creative powerhouse who has turned his dyslexic challenges into a multifaceted advantage. Growing up in a Louisiana school system that misunderstood dyslexia, Scott faced significant setbacks, from being held back to enduring ridicule in the classroom. Yet, his natural creativity became his saving grace. Scott's path includes time in the advertising world, rising to lead successful campaigns and develop groundbreaking innovations. His journey includes success in coding, in developing his own business, and in music with Grammy-contending blues work under the moniker "Janky".  Scott has also worked to uplift underprivileged artists through his nonprofit, The Blues Fund. With honesty and humor, Scott recounts how dyslexia has shaped his life, from struggling with basic spelling to mastering complex coding languages, and how his upbringing instilled the resilience and work ethic that propelled him to success. Tune in to hear Scott's remarkable journey and his reflections on how dyslexia can fuel creativity and innovation. Dyslexia On Demand  Book a consultation with Megan to discuss CALT therapy.
