I get asked a lot about going for a promotion. The fear, worry and uncertainty it brings. Our dyslexic minds run off down rabbit holes. In this pod I share a few thoughts to get you thinking in a more positive way!

Luke Kolpin is a chef with dyslexia. He's cooked in high-pressure environments, from Top Chef to the critically acclaimed Noma in Copenhagen.  Luke didn't have the best relationship with school when he was first diagnosed with dyslexia. After high school, he started taking community college courses. But he still wondered what he really wanted to do. That's when his best friend suggested culinary school. After all, Luke's nickname was Lunchbox when he was a kid.  Culinary school changed Luke's world. He excelled in the hands-on work — but he also had to get past the academics. A teacher who recognized his skill set made all the difference.  In this week's episode of How'd You Get THAT Job?!, Luke shares how he handles challenges that bring up old anxieties — and that asking for help is OK. To find a transcript for this episode and more resources, visit the episode page at Understood.  We love hearing from our listeners.

  My podcast guest this week is the author of a very touching memoir called:- I'm Sober…So Now What?: A Journey of Hope and Healing by Melissa Witherspoon That's an excellent question and there's definitely quite a difficult stage that we reach when we are in early sobriety… For many of us it's a bit of a void – a kind of flatness when we suffer from anhedonia – we haven't found our Sober Feet yet and we are certainly not thriving and enjoying our sobriety Our old routines are messed up, our drinking buddies are keeping their distance and we are not entirely sure what to do with ourselves.. That's why we aim to take people on a 7 stage journey here at Tribe Sober – because there is so much more to recovery than “not drinking” We help people to ditch the booze and then introduce them to yoga, coaching, meditation, art therapy so they can explore and start to build their alcohol free lives – a life they won't want to escape from. Melissa Witherspoon calls her memoir a journey of hope and healing and it really is.. Anyone who has been struggling for years will take hope from this book – Melissa spent decades struggling with alcohol – in and out of rehab – getting sober and then relapsing – but it finally stuck.. In this Episode Melissa came from a happy home but struggled at school. Suffering from Attention Deficit and Dyslexia when neither condition was really acknowledged meant that either her teachers or her classmates were giving her a hard time She never really found a friendship group at school – not until she got to High School when she finally found “her people” Trouble was her new friends were mostly boys and a bit older than her – and they were using drugs and alcohol – but she was happy - she finally felt that she was “fitting in”.. She was so influenced by this group that she left home and turned her back on everything she knew Melissa found herself living with a bunch drug dealers in what she describes as a “den of inequity” She felt so free and grown up – she could come and go as she pleased and had access to the drugs and alcohol she wanted – she loved it! However things got quite “dark” and Melissa was rescued during a police raid! In one way this was a relief but her mum was in denial about what had been happening and Melissa was just expected to slot back in to “normal” life…without any help She was full of shame and guilt and finally managed to get some counselling at the age of 21 but she wasn't open with her counsellors so ended up carrying her shame and guilt into her 20's and 30's She coped with the pain by drinking and using drugs – and for two decades she was in and out of rehabs, making poor decisions and then dealing with the consequences For some periods she managed to keep up an external façade that she was coping but inside she felt she was falling "down the rabbit hole"  Melissa went to one rehab to help her come off alcohol and Xanax – when she left they gave her a bag of pills– pills she subsequently used in a suicide attempt Her life was only saved when her husband came home unexpectedly Back in rehab she remembers how irritated she was with the “one day at a time” mantra – she couldn't even get the schedule for the following day as she was told to just focus on today.. With perspective she now appreciates how it can work and even today she finds herself saying “one day at a time Melissa” if she feels anxious or stressed – a good habit for all us I think Another mantra she's learned to love is “progress not perfection” We use that a lot here at Tribe Sober – we're currently running our annual 66 day challenge and many people are daunted by the thought of 66 sober days – but we give them a tracker and tell them to mark their Sober Stretches – how many stretches can they do? Are they getting longer?  How many alcohol free days did they manage out of 66 – that's progress not perfection While we are at it lets look at some more Sober Cliches that actually help – how about “this too shall pass” – whether we are reflecting on a tough day resisting the triggers or being hit by one of those “lows” that we feel even when we are sober - "this too shall pass" can help to soothe us Another one is “one is too many and a thousand isn't enough” – that's one to remember if you've been sober for a few months and think “ok I'm fine now – I can have just one” – well spoiler alert – you probably can't! Finally how about “there is no problem that alcohol won't make worse” -  if we've been using alcohol as a coping mechanism for years it can be SO difficult not to start drinking again if we get some bad news… but of course the problem will still be there – along with a crashing hangover when we sober up.. These sayings might be clichéd, but they have been really helpful to many of us here at Tribe Sober. I hope that they'll be just as helpful for you. If anyone has any favorite sobriety sayings, please send them to janet@tribesober.com and I'll read them out on the podcast Melissa was always worried about becoming a “Dry Drunk” – that happens when you get sober but you don't "do the work", you don't change your life There is so much more to recovery than “not drinking” and that's the journey we take you on at Tribe Sober – apart from introducing you to various therapies and offering you coaching we welcome you to our community where many people are already sober and will inspire you with the creativity and connections they have discovered so they can thrive in their sobriety – not just get through it like a Dry Drunk does.. To join our community just go to tribesober.com and hit “join our tribe” Melissa's husband is in logistics and loves spreadsheets – so he created a spreadsheet of activities and timings to make sure that Melissa kept very busy in early sobriety – and it worked! This is a definite technique that works for many people – we have to keep our mind occupied so we don't end up thinking about drinking! Have a listen to Tribe Sober episode 105 with Jeff Graham who explains exactly how this technique worked for him Apart from loving sobriety cliches I'm very keen on analogies and Melissa talked about the “family in recovery” being like a boat People get used to their roles and if one of them changes the whole boat needs rebalancing – for example Melissa's husband got upset when she was no longer relying on the schedule he had set up for her – she was getting better and no longer needed rescuing This is linked to co-dependency  – and the whole family may need counselling if these patterns have been fixed for years From her experiences Melissa has observed that there are 3 stages of relapse Stage 1 is emotional relapse – not even thinking about drinking yet but observing the triggers that seem to be getting more frequent Stay in Stage 1 long enough without taking action and you may move to Stage 2 which is the mental relapse when you start to feel uncomfortable in your skin – and skip activities like connecting with your sober tribe and sticking to your exercise routine – all things that relieve triggers Stay in Stage 2 long enough and you may move to Stage 3 which is physical relapse when you are back in active addiction The advantage of knowing about these 3 stages are that you can keep your radar sharp for Relapse Warning Signs – all different for different people but you need to be able to pick up if you are feeling a bit “off” as Melissa puts it – keeping a journal is a great way of monitoring your emotions For Melissa it shows up in a lack of self care – if she starts neglecting things like her hair washing routine she will see it as a warning sign and tune in to what's going on..

Across Africa, if you ask people how they plan to improve the lives of their children, the answer is often ‘through education'. But what about if the school system isn't set up for how their brain works? We now know that dyslexic brains work differently to those of other people – with more activity in the frontal lobe and less in other areas. This means people with the condition can struggle with reading, writing, spelling and memory. They can be punished for not trying and for perceived laziness. But in reality, it isn't a choice and doesn't mean they lack intelligence – and they are actually better in some areas, like thinking visually. So in today's Africa Daily, Alan Kasujja (@kasujja) speaks to Philip Ogola (@PhilipOgola) who was diagnosed with dyslexia as an adult and is now campaigning for better understanding - and to Phyllis Munyi-Kariuki, the Director of Dyslexia Organisation-Kenya and asks: how can people with dyslexia be better supported?

NeuroDivergent masking is when a NeuroDivergent Person, either consciously or subconsciously, camouflages, or masks, their divergent traits in order to blend in or to appear NeuroTypical. Now, when we talk about masking for NeuroDivergent People, whether that's Autistic People, ADHD, Dyslexia, any other neurodevelopmental difference, it's important to understand that this camouflaging, this blending in, this masking, is something that many of us do in self-defense. It can be a subconscious thing. Some of us are not even aware we are doing it. It's something we do for safety and self-preservation. It's a survival skill that can be harmful to those of us who adapt this survival skill. However, being able to blend in, and being able to be invisible, in a society that can be unfriendly, and even hostile, to those whose minds work differently, is something that we do to be safe. It's not intended to be a manipulative or deceptive bait and switch. The thing about masking, as a NeuroDivergent Person is: I learned to mask, even though I didn't know, I was NeuroDivergent. I learned to mask, even though I wasn't in any formal NeuroDivergent Conversion Therapy type of a program.

https://bit.ly/3K8UlDxHow to Unlock the Genius Mind of the Dyslexic Child – Presentation with PGI Leadership ConferenceI was privileged to speak at the Promise Governance Institute – Leaders Networking Conference 2022 with Pastors Drs. Mike and Adelle McKinney. Eric Giorgio is the Vice President of PGI. I was invited to speak last year the Theme was Integrity, and this year I was asked to return with the Theme being Metanoia – meaning repent and change. All the speakers were amazing.  I wanted to share my presentation here because I believe it will inspire you. The other speakers will be available with Promise Governance Institute.In this presentation, I share many facts. They are documented in the Anthology that is being created from the conference. I discuss science, I share testimonies, and I share historical events. Did you know we weren't born with the reading brain like we were to see and hear? However, God has given us the brain parts to all work together to develop the reading brain. I share about the science of Dr. Roger Sperry and why his science is so specific to how we teach reading with my reading program. We play classical music in the left ear and play spelling exercises in the right ear as one part of our reading program. Then I share the statistics. People want to see the science, but folks have a hard time listening to this scientific data! I wrote a book on it!https://youtu.be/GR2j5zGr3CQDr. Marianne Cintron earned her Doctorate in Education Leadership and Administration.

We have a whole support portal, which can be searched for any query at all! It's great (the video is on there too) and there are articles that cover everything. At last count, we had over 140 different support articles on there for parents and we're growing that all the time. If you're really struggling, you can submit a ticket on there. Lastly on our families hub we're posting up new resources, lessons and revision plans to support these new tests and also to be mindful that tests can be stressful for both parents and children. We are about to launch a range of articles that are specifically aimed at reducing exam stress and we've teamed up with a leading neuroscientist to do this. We're also going to provide schools and families with a range of ideas that can support responsible preparation for the test.

In this episode of Your Next Stop, Dr. Jane Tornatore, an author, therapist, speaker, and ADHD/Dyslexia individual, shares her inspiring story of overcoming adversity to become a successful business woman. In this episode, you will learn: The power of storytelling to connect us and make us feel not alone How our experiences shape how we see life The importance of knowing your body and choosing the right medication or treatment option for you. Dr. Jane Tornatore is a brain geek and self-compassion expert based in Seattle, WA. As a psychotherapist, coach, speaker, and author, she works with intelligent, motivated, high-achieving women who are committed to being better people, yet, they never feel better ENOUGH–Women who want to finally like themselves and stop second-guessing their decisions. What separates her from other coaches and therapists is her down to earth, humorous, practical, and SIMPLE approach. Her superpower is seeing what keeps people stuck.  And because of this, her clients become aware of the unconscious beliefs that keep them trapped and unsatisfied, so they can choose thoughts and actions that actually work for them rather than making them feel like crap. She received a Master's degree at the University of Illinois, and a PhD at the University of Minnesota. She has authored over 20 articles and published a book—Everything is Perfect, Just Not ME! A Roadmap for Self-Acceptance. Remarkable Quote: “That's one thing I always say to my kids, listen, I want you to do the best that you can, and there's things I expect from you, and there's things that you know what? It's just it is what it is, and we all need to know our strengths and weaknesses, and it's important, and it's okay to have weaknesses. Weaknesses actually make us stronger in certain things.” Sponsor Today's episode is sponsored by: Picked Cherries' social podcasting app is the destination for the best podcast listening experience for all listeners.

Relationships & dyslexia. If I heard that in the past I would have a giant sigh. It just seemed super hard, pointless, frustrating and maybe impossible at times. I remember going on Tinder before I found Holly and it was like a video game (which I later found out relationships don't have to be). A close dyslexic friend of mine has just started back up on the app so I wanted to do a podcast about my experiences to help him on his way (you know who you are!)

Though dyslexia is the most diagnosed learning disorder, it is often misunderstood. Perhaps you've noticed your young child reverse letters and numbers as they write. Maybe you've heard your older student consistently struggle to read out loud. Or it may be that you've witnessed your child face difficulties in reading fluency, spelling, or getting their thoughts out on a page. Which of these are “normal” parts of learning to read, and which signs indicate a child may need additional help? What do parents need to know about the reading process, and what should they do if they suspect their child is experiencing atypical reading challenges? Literacy expert Blythe Wood shares insights to address these questions and more.

Throughout my life I have been told directly and indirectly that dyslexia is found in particular people... [In fact] dyslexia can be found in someone like me. It isn't just 'okay' but something to be proud of. This book has been written because I want people to know that dyslexia can be found in people of every colour, creed, or circumstance. A survival guide on being young and dyslexic by inspiring rising star entrepreneur and speaker Onyinye Udokporo, combining her own personal story with political and cultural insights, and practical tips and advice. In this audiobook, rising star entrepreneur Onyinye Udokporo shares her story of growing up dyslexic in a society where neurodivergence was always presented as a white male issue. Onyinye discusses her experience of being diagnosed at 11 years old, starting a business the following year, gaining a scholarship to a prestigious boarding school and going on to complete two degrees by the age of 22, while also being honest about the difficulties she faced throughout including with bullying and anxiety. She shares the tips she picked up over the years for thriving with dyslexia and the strategies she used to overcome her difficulties in reading and writing well, staying organised and speaking with confidence. Illuminating wider issues of systemic racism in the educational sector and providing a timely reminder that dyslexia can be found in any community and culture, this is an empowering story of surviving and thriving in the face of adversity.

How does dyslexia differ across languages?

Rohan Chhabra found out he had dyslexia during graduate school by tagging along with a friend to her evaluation. He went in knowing nothing about dyslexia — and came out with a diagnosis. After learning more about it, so many things about how his brain worked finally made sense. Dyslexia had been guiding his life and his career choices, and he hadn't even realized it.Growing up in India, Rohan was a quiet kid who worried about keeping up with academic classes. He gravitated toward creative fields that relied on drawing instead of writing. After getting his master's degree in industrial design, Rohan worked for fashion titans like Nike and Ralph Lauren. But his passion for animals and the environment pulled him in another direction. Now, he creates digital fashion sold as NFTs.To find a transcript for this episode and more resources, visit the episode page at Understood. We love hearing from our listeners.

Dyslexia is believed to affect 20% of the population, and for the city's public schools, that could mean hundreds of thousands of students. For years, parents and teachers have struggled to identify dyslexia and implement new ways of learning. But beginning this school year, Mayor Eric Adams is launching a pilot program to better screen students for learning disabilities and teach them new ways of reading. Pat Kiernan sits down with NY1 education reporter Jillian Jorgensen to talk about the new program and the upcoming school year.

In today's video, I'm joined by Dov Baron, the architect of Emotional Source Code, a best-selling author and an overall genius, as we discuss how self determination is one of the most critical success factors that can lead you to your future success.For many people, a strong start isn't always possible. Whether it's because of where you're born, the time you were born, or other circumstances, many people find themselves in adverse situations at the beginning of their journey.Dov Baron was no different. He had a rough start to his life. He was brought up surrounded by crime, poverty, violence and abuse. He also later discovered that he had dyslexia, which made it hard for him to be in school. All obvious success factors just weren't there, and made his future success seem like an impossible task for many.But he knew he was never going to reach his full potential and would just be wasting his time in this traditional school setting. So with self determination, he left school early at the age of 13 to pursue a different path in entrepreneurship.While the schooling system works for many, it's not made for everyone.
