Dyslexia is almost always framed as a struggle — but what if that's only half the story? In this episode, Emily sits down with neurodiversity advocate and dyslexic mom Melissa Jackson to talk about the very real gifts that come with dyslexic wiring, why our school systems have been measuring all the wrong things, and what parents most need to hear when their child is just beginning this journey. They also get into the deeper layer — the childhood wounds many parents are quietly carrying, and why healing your child might just start with healing yourself.Connect with Emily Hamblin: https://instagram.com/emilyhamblincoachingConnect with Melissa Jackson on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/neurodiversity_advocate

In this episode of The Dyslexic Entrepreneur, Stephen explains why dyslexic and neurodivergent thinkers may have a natural advantage in the age of AI. Instead of competing with AI, he encourages people to see it as a powerful tool like a camera crew to a director or a sous chef to a head chef.Dyslexic minds often excel at pattern recognition, creativity, and big-picture thinking, which are exactly the skills needed to guide AI effectively. As technology evolves, execution is becoming cheaper while strong ideas and problem-solving abilities are becoming more valuable. The key is learning to direct AI and combine it with your personal experience and creativity.TakeawaysWork with AI, not against it.Think of yourself as the director and AI as the tool.Dyslexic strengths like pattern recognition and creativity are valuable in the AI era.Ideas and direction are becoming more important than execution.Start experimenting with AI tools and learn by doing.Dyslexia and AI, dyslexic entrepreneur, neurodivergent thinking, AI for entrepreneurs, dyslexia strengths, AI creativity, future of work, neurodiversity and technology, ADHD, adults with dyslexia, support for adults.Join the clubrightbrainresetters.comGet 20% off your first orderaddednutrition.comIf you want to find out more visit:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠truthaboutdyslexia.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our Facebook Group⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠facebook.com/groups/adultdyslexia⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

What happens when you're diagnosed with ADHD at 56—after a lifetime of dyslexia, chaos, big wins, big losses, and school trauma that taught you you'd never be "enough"? In this episode of Adulting With Autism, we talk with John O'Shea, author of NeuroSpicy, about late diagnosis, anger and shame, the nervous system cost of being punished for learning differently, and how ADHD isn't a deficit of attention—it can be an overload of thoughts "like a V8 with no brakes." John shares how the end of his 32-year marriage pushed him into rock bottom—and why writing became a lifeline. He also explains why ADHD and dyslexia can be both a superpower and kryptonite, and what it takes to build resilience without staying trapped in failure as a "comfort blanket." In this episode, we cover: What it feels like to get an ADHD diagnosis later in life (and why it mattered more to others than to John) School trauma, humiliation, and why criticism can trigger rage in ADHD/dyslexic adults Anger as armor: shame, rejection sensitivity, and emotional overflow The "fast brain" experience: overload vs "attention deficit" Why ADHD people can be scattered and intensely focused (hyperfocus) The Hawaii customs story: literacy shame, humiliation, and consequences Reframing neurodivergence: "we don't need fixing—we need understanding and tools" What the education system should change (and John's plan for an ADHD/dyslexia empowerment course) Imposter syndrome and "fake it till you make it" as a practical survival tool Tools John uses to regulate: meditation, gym, sauna, grounding, and presence practices Where to find the book and John's work Connect with John O'Shea: Website / book: https://neurospicy.life Discount code: ABC25

Coinciding with the release of his autobiography, California Gov. Gavin Newsom just had the worst February of any major want-to-be presidential candidate in modern memory. Newsom tries posing as someone who grew up poor and dyslexic in order to connect with minority voters better and to “dispel” his true image of being “a nepo baby,” explains Victor Davis Hanson on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words. “So when he talked about he just ate white bread or he had all of these problems growing up—he said he had dyslexia—but the idea that Gavin Newsom was somehow parallel to Abraham Lincoln in a log cabin or JD Vance just doesn't work.”

Dyslexia isn't just a reading problem—it's a whole brain vibe! In our chat today, we dive into some eye-opening insights with Russell Van Broecklin, a dyslexia researcher who's got the lowdown on how dyslexia works and why it's not as straightforward as folks think. He lays down the truth that while dyslexics might read and write slower, their brains are firing on all cylinders when it comes to thinking. So, if you've got a kiddo who's struggling, don't sweat it! Russell shares some killer strategies for helping them thrive academically, even if traditional methods have made them feel like they're swimming upstream. Join us as we unravel the myths and equip ourselves with some solid tools to help our little learners soar! Dyslexia is often misunderstood as a simple reading issue, but let me tell you, it's way more complex than that. Russell Van Broecklin, our guest on the podcast, dives deep into the nuances of dyslexia, sharing his own journey and expertise as a New York State funded dyslexia researcher. He reveals that while dyslexics might read and write slower than their peers, they often think and process information faster, which flips the script on how we perceive learning difficulties. Throughout our conversation, Russell emphasizes the importance of recognizing the unique cognitive strengths dyslexics possess, which can lead to incredible academic and personal success when properly supported. He recounts his own experiences in law school, where he not only navigated the challenges of dyslexia but thrived, showcasing that with the right strategies, dyslexics can outperform even the best and brightest at institutions like Harvard. A standout moment from the episode is when he shares his research findings, revealing that he helped students go from struggling to thriving, often at a fraction of the cost of traditional approaches. It's a game-changer for parents and educators alike, showing that understanding and tailored interventions can lead to phenomenal outcomes for dyslexic children.Takeaways:Dyslexia isn't just about reading; it's a whole brain organization thing that can affect writing too.Contrary to popular belief, dyslexics can learn to read better than many traditionally 'smart' kids.With the right strategies, dyslexics can think faster than their peers, especially in higher education settings.Identifying dyslexia early is crucial; if you suspect your child has it, get them tested by professionals as soon as possible.Links referenced in this episode:FromFosterToForever.comFosterToForeverpodcastdyslexiaclasses.comdyslexiaclasses.comMentioned in this episode:10% OFF FOSTERING FAMILIES TODAY MAGFostering Families Today is a bi-monthly magazine distributed to foster, kinship and adoptive families across the country offering resources, expert opinions, practical advice and information on the latest evidence-based best practices for supporting children and youth who come from traumatic backgrounds.

In this episode of the Dyslexia Explored Podcast, hosts Darius Namdaran and Jo Lee introduce Dr. Helen Ross, an inspiring educator, researcher, and advocate who shares her profound insights into neurodiversity. They discuss a range of topics, including the heavy mental load and masking experienced by neurodivergent girls during key life transitions, the transformative power of EdTech and AI, and why it is often more important to be 'well-informed' rather than simply 'well-read.' Dr. Ross also reflects on her personal academic journey to achieving a PhD, the systemic challenges faced by SENCOs in education, and the empowering realization of claiming your own label and identity with dyslexia and ADHD. Join this insightful conversation to explore how neurodivergent individuals can play to their strengths, self-advocate, and find grace within a complex educational system.This podcast is sponsored by ivvi.

Did you know 15 to 20% of the population has dyslexia, yet most schools are still failing these students? In this episode of the Elevate Media Podcast, host Chris Anderson sits down with Russell Van Brocklen, a dyslexia educator and researcher with over a decade of experience helping students overcome learning differences through a brain-based approach rooted in Yale research. Russell breaks down exactly why the traditional school system is built for a brain that dyslexic students simply don't have and what to do instead. He walks through his step-by-step writing method that can take a child writing random, misspelled words to producing well-structured sentences with correct grammar in a single session. He also shares how he's helping students with dyslexia, ADD, and ADHD find their "specialty" (their narrow area of deep interest) and use it as the engine for advanced academic achievement, including peer-reviewed research and AI-era career readiness. Whether your child is struggling in school, you suspect dyslexia in yourself, or you're just fascinated by how different brains learn, this episode will change the way you think about intelligence, education, and potential.

In this episode, we sit down with Nancy Duggan, co-founder and executive director of Decoding Dyslexia Massachusetts. We talk about how Nancy's path from parent of a dyslexic child to statewide advocate helped move Massachusetts from “we don't say dyslexia” to mandated screening and the Right to Read law. Nancy explains how grassroots parent organizing, neuroscience research, and relentless policy work combined to drive real change, and why early identification, evidence-based instruction, and intensive, comprehensive intervention (far beyond phonics alone) are non-negotiable for students with dyslexia. Whether you're an educator or a family member, you'll walk away with practical strategies for IEP advocacy and a clear-eyed look at how systems can actually change.

In this BrandsTalk episode, I interview Susan K. Younger, the “Relationship Architect,” whose nonlinear path spans architecture, retail design, consulting, structural integration, and personality science, including B.A.N.K. methodology (since 2015) and AI-powered insights via Codebreaker Technologies (since 2019).We explore how the environments we create—externally and internally—shape leadership, and why self-awareness is now foundational in a world of AI, instability, and polarization. Susan shares pivotal moments from pursuing architecture in the 1960s, thriving in fast-changing retail, and learning to separate identity from projects, while emphasizing gratitude, joy, and personal rhythms as daily leadership practices.We also discuss embracing limitations as hidden gifts, protecting human creativity alongside technology, and her 2025 initiative “Humanitarianism,” a movement to “make people matter” through values-based connection, community, and courageous conversations. She closes with one key shift for leaders: slow down to go fast.Time markers: 02:38 Designing Leadership Environments05:51 Self Awareness Now08:40 Pivotal Growth Moments13:45 Human Leadership Matters16:49 Gratitude As Practice20:29 Find Your Daily Rhythm23:21 Winding Down Intentionally26:45 Pause and Reflect27:40 Hidden Gifts in Limits28:39 Dyslexia to Design Strength30:27 Tech Shift and Creativity33:42 Reimagining Humanitarianism37:32 Community and Hard Talks42:21 Leaders Slow Down to Go FastGet in touch with Susan K Younger:https://www.linkedin.com/in/susankyounger/https://skyounger.com/Get in touch with Brigitte Bojkowszky: Website BridgetBrands: https://www.bridgetbrands.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bojkowszkyb/ Website Retreat “I AM BECOMING”: https://event.i-am-escape.com/i-am-becoming Amazon books Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bridgetbrands YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@bridgetbrands Book a call: https://calendly.com/bridgetbrands/20-min-discoverycall

In a first in-studio Dear Dyslexic Podcast interview, the host chats with Dr. Kim Percy and UK-based Dr. Helen Ross about dyslexia and broader neurodivergence in adulthood, focusing on transition points from school to university or work. Helen, in Australia on a Churchill Fellowship, describes how lack of clear, accessible support and long assessment waitlists can leave people—especially girls—unraveling during major transitions, and she explores Australian practices (including TAFE flexibility) to bring ideas back to the UK. Kim shares a parent and lecturer perspective, describing students and her own son falling through cracks due to missed emails, fees, system lockouts, and barriers to diagnosis and learning plans. They discuss the importance of “village” support networks, self-worth, and shifting assessments from deficits to strengths, noting ongoing misconceptions about intelligence and dyslexia.

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour host Scot Bertram fills in for Jim on Thursday's 3 Martini Lunch. Join Scot and Greg as they break down Vice President JD Vance's forceful defense of the Trump administration's fraud investigations, a Midwest mayor claiming Americans should be embarrassed to own guns, and how California Gov. Gavin Newsom's press team demeaned and dismissed a serious reporter with tiresome vulgarity.First, they applaud Vice President Vance for standing firm behind the Trump administration's investigation into widespread government fraud, especially following revelations of massive fraud in Minnesota. Scot and Greg argue that fraud needs to be exposed rather than excused.Next, they highlight the radical comments on guns and dogs from Democrat Grand Rapids, Michigan, Mayor David LaGrand. The mayor says anyone who owns a gun should be ashamed. And he's also supportive of ending K-9 police units after a recent incident. It's not just the leftward lurch of a recently conservative part of the country. It reflects broader Democratic attitudes on gun rights, policing, and traditional American institutionsFinally, they criticize Gavin Newsom communications aide Izzy Gardon for refusing to provide details about Gov. Newsom's sudden admission of dyslexia and for responding to longtime reporter Susan Crabtree with vulgarity. Scot and Greg discuss what they see as significant disrespect for a well-established reporter and another chapter in the left's endless public profanity.Please visit our great sponsors:Take your personal data back with Incogni—use code 3ML for 60% off an annual plan at https://Incogni.com/3MLLive better, longer with BUBS Naturals.

What happens when a child grows up feeling “different” without the language to understand why?In this episode of The Modern Mommy Doc Podcast, Dr. Whitney Casares sits down with author Nancy Lasater to discuss her novel Farmer's Son, a powerful story exploring dyslexia, identity, family dynamics, and the lifelong impact of being misunderstood as a child.Together, they explore how learning differences shape confidence, why many neurodivergent kids come into their own on their own timeline, and how parents can shift from rigid expectations toward supporting who their child truly is. This episode is a thoughtful conversation about parenting outside the box, redefining success, and helping kids feel safe, seen, and supported.Read more.

In this episode, Phil Argent shares his journey as a dyslexic entrepreneur, exploring how neurodiversity shapes innovative thinking, decision-making, and building global systems. Discover insights on system thinking, leveraging AI, and embracing your unique talents to achieve big goals.TakeawaysThe "Engine" Analogy: Phil views businesses and digital ecosystems as engines. His strength lies in taking them apart, understanding every component, and rebuilding them for peak optimization.Intellectual Off-Switch: A common trait discussed is the "instant-on" brain. Phil and Stephen talk about the challenge of waking up at 100% capacity, often in the middle of the night, and how to harness that energy rather than fight it.Trust and Speed at Virgin: Phil reflects on the "Virgin DNA"—a culture of absolute trust and rapid execution. He highlights how Richard Branson's leadership style empowered neurodivergent thinkers to move at a "relentless pace" without overthinking decisions.The "Parking Lot" Strategy: To combat the "Shiny Object Syndrome" common among dyslexic entrepreneurs, Phil and Stephen discuss the importance of framing ambitions bigger. If you feel distracted, re-evaluate your goal—a big enough ambition requires discipline and keeps you focused on the long-term system rather than short-term pivots.The Power of AI (Raffi & Pip): Both guest and host reveal they use custom AI assistants (Phil's "Raffi" and Stephen's "Pip") to interrogate their thinking, organize tasks, and execute at a speed that would otherwise require a massive team.Dyslexia, Neurodiversity, Entrepreneurship, System Thinking, AI, Innovation, Personal Growth, Business Strategy, ADHD, adults with dyslexia, support for adults.Join the clubrightbrainresetters.comGet 20% off your first orderaddednutrition.comIf you want to find out more visit:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠truthaboutdyslexia.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our Facebook Group⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠facebook.com/groups/adultdyslexia

What if a fifth grader could turn a pile of ideas into a clear, grounded paragraph—every time—without leaning on AI? We bring back dyslexia researcher Russell Van Brocklen for part three of our series to show exactly how: start with a hero, a universal theme, and a villain; distill three good reasons into one-word themes; and anchor everything to a real quote. The result is a body paragraph that's honest, teachable, and repeatable—plus a writing process students can explain step by step.We also address integrity in the AI era: students must show their process or redo the work, then later use AI as a research coach rather than a shortcut. By the end, you'll have a clear path to scale from one body paragraph to three, then add a thesis and conclusion that help students pass state tests and feel proud of their writing.If this helped, follow the show, share it with a colleague, and leave a review. Grab the free resources in the notes, and stay tuned for part four, where we break down concrete, classroom-ready examples.

1. Criticism of Democratic Leaders on Law Enforcement Barack Obama, Gavin Newsom, and other Democratic figures are hostile toward law enforcement agencies, particularly ICE and National Guard deployments. Obama is quoted as describing some federal agents’ actions as “rogue,” which the speakers interpret as an attack on ICE. Gavin Newsom is criticized for comments comparing masked federal agents to authoritarian “secret police,” specifically referencing imagery associated with Germany’s past. Newsom’s claim that National Guard federalization was unprecedented. President Eisenhower’s 1957 use of federal authority to enforce desegregation in Little Rock, Arkansas. Newsom is “historically illiterate,” which later triggers a public Twitter exchange. 2. Newsom’s Response and the Dyslexia Angle Newsom accuses Ted Cruz of mocking his dyslexia. Cruz responds that “historically illiterate” referred to misunderstanding history, not reading ability. A social‑media back‑and‑forth unfolds, including jokes, memes, and comparisons of engagement statistics. Obama is: Highly partisan, Influential on younger progressive Democrats, Associated with cultural or “Marxist” ideological trends (as described by the speakers), Possibly influential behind the scenes during the Biden administration. Obama’s presidency contributed to increased political division. 3. Discussion of Tucker Carlson’s Recent Behavior Carlson has changed significantly since leaving Fox News. Anti‑Israel sentiment Hosting extremist guests Favoring authoritarians such as Putin or Iranian leadership Attacking Christian Zionists He may have ulterior financial or ideological motivations (while acknowledging no direct evidence). Carlson claimed Israeli airport officials detained him and questioned his team. Video footage showed him freely interacting with people at the airport, Israeli officials denied detaining him, A U.S. embassy statement also contradicted Carlson’s story. Carlson traveled to Israel to interview the ambassador but insisted on conducting the interview at the airport. Carlson claiming safety concerns while contrasting it with his willingness to travel in Russia or Qatar. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

If reading ends in tears, meltdowns, or “I hate this,” this episode reframes the conversation.We unpack a common misunderstanding: reading struggles aren't always about motivation, intelligence, dyslexia, or ADHD. Reading is first a visual task — and there's a critical difference between eyesight (20/20 clarity) and vision (how efficiently the brain uses the eyes).You'll learn:How visual inefficiencies can mimic ADHDWhy some children labeled dyslexic may also have undetected visual challengesThe signs of tracking, focusing, and eye teaming issuesWhat to look for at homeWhen to seek a comprehensive visual evaluation(00:04) Intro  (00:37) When Your Child Hates Reading  (01:08) It's Not Laziness or Lack of Motivation  (02:30) What Should Parents Do First?  (02:55) Dyslexia: Diagnosis & Misconceptions  (04:29) Why a Behavioral Optometry Exam Comes First  (05:02) 20/20 Eyesight vs. True Vision  (06:00) Tracking, Focus & Why Reading Feels So Hard  (07:34) ADHD vs. Vision Problems  (08:42) Can Kids Have Multiple Issues?  (09:30) Compensating vs. Fixing the Root Cause  (10:43) Dr. Collier's Personal Story with Double Vision  (12:06) Punishment vs. Understanding the Struggle  (13:29) Tapping Into What Your Child Loves  (14:00) When Kids Decide “I'm Not a Reader”  (16:20) Catching Vision Issues Early  (18:45) Building Perseverance the Right Way  (19:02) Tracking Progress & Celebrating Wins  (20:33) Where to Start If Your Child Is Struggling  (21:22) Finding a Behavioral Optometrist  (21:46) 4D Built to Read Program  (22:01) OutroIf your child avoids reading, it may not be defiance — it may be discomfort.

In this episode of the Dyslexia Explored Podcast, hosts Darius Namdaran and Jo Lee interview Rose Lord, a neurodivergent entrepreneur and former British champion gymnast who is developing the My Best Mood app to build emotional resilience in children. Rose recounts her journey from having "extreme dyslexia" that left her unable to process written words to finding success through a specialized brain-retraining program and eventually advocating for neurodivergent youth in Parliament. They discuss her innovative platform, which uses AI to turn a child's imagination into personalized digital stories, incorporating evidence-led accessibility features like colored filters and read-aloud functions. The conversation highlights the importance of supporting the "blast radius" of emotional dysregulation within families and Rose' mission to ensure that children feel valued and understood rather than "fixed".This podcast is sponsored by: Get ivvi notes now: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://ivvi.app/⁠⁠⁠⁠ Links: Ivvi: https://www.ivvi.app/ What is Dyslexia: https://www.bdadyslexia.org.uk/dyslexia/about-dyslexia/what-is-dyslexia How to Mindmap: https://www.bulletmapacademy.com/mindmap-beginners My Best Mood website: www.mybestmood.comZing Performance: www.zingperformance.comLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/roselord/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/my.best.mood Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mybestmoodofficial/ Interested in being a guest?

In this episode, we'll dive into The Language of Limitation: Russell Van Brocklen on What Dyslexia Research Teaches Us About Disability Claims.Understanding how cognitive and reading challenges show up in real work settings can determine whether a disability claim is fairly evaluated or misunderstood. Too often, Long-Term Disability decisions focus on diagnoses alone, overlooking how processing speed, reading accuracy, memory, and mental fatigue affect day-to-day job performance. Insurers may recognize a condition exists while still concluding work is possible - without fully accounting for sustained cognitive demands. In this episode, we examine what functional limitation really looks like when cognitive challenges are involved. Our guest, Russell Van Brocklen, shares research-driven insights into how reading and processing difficulties affect productivity, accuracy, and endurance at work. We cover three areas: connecting cognitive science to disability claims, translating research into usable claim evidence, and practical takeaways for attorneys, clinicians, and claimants. By the end, you'll see why cognitive limitations must be evaluated in real-world terms, and why linking science to functional impact is key to protecting Long-Term Disability benefits.In this episode, we'll cover the following topics:One - Background and Context: Bridging Research and Disability ClaimsTwo - Translating Cognitive Science into Claim EvidenceThree - Practical Insights for Attorneys, Clinicians, and ClaimantsWhether you're a claimant, or simply seeking valuable insights into the disability claims landscape, this episode provides essential guidance to help you succeed in your journey.

I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode. Text us here...What if neurodiversity isn't a barrier to success, but a set of strengths that can shine in the right environment? In this episode, Julie sits down with Shea Belsky, an autistic leader, advocate, and tech professional, for a practical and eye-opening conversation about what neurodiversity really means, why accessibility is equity, and how workplaces and communities can better support neurodivergent individuals.Shea shares his “superpower” (attention to detail and tenacity), but also makes an important point: strengths only show up when people have the right support systems. Julie and Shea talk about the difference between mentorship vs sponsorship, why sponsorship is often the game-changer for career growth, and how companies can scale inclusive practices without making it feel complicated or performative.They also unpack the reality of unemployment and underemployment for neurodivergent people, what accessibility looks like beyond ramps and captions, and the simple mindset shift that can change everything: listen better, drop assumptions, and treat each person as an individual.In this episode, you'll learn:What “neurodiversity” includes (and why it's an umbrella, not one experience)Why neurodivergence can be innate or acquired (including cognitive changes after illness)The difference between mentorship and sponsorship, and why sponsors change careersWhat accessibility actually means and why it matters in daily life and workHow to support neurodivergent people in your workplace and your communityWhy “if you've met one autistic person, you've met one autistic person” is the truthHow to challenge stereotypes in your own corner of the worldConnect with Shea Shea's best place to connect is LinkedIn (search “Shea Belsky”, he says there's only one!).

He highlights the common struggle of translating their skills and value into effective communication, leading to a lack of confidence in selling themselves.

Send us a textImagine being told a first-grade reading level will define your future—then deciding to rewrite the script. That's the spark behind our conversation with Russell, a New York State–funded dyslexia researcher who turned personal roadblocks into a practical method that helps students jump from frustration to fluency without elite price tags.We dig into the brain science that actually moves the needle: stop hammering the back of the brain where dyslexic readers show low activity and start training the frontal systems where activity surges. Russell explains a deceptively simple routine that blends word analysis and articulation: build three-word sentences grounded in the learner's real interests, read them aloud to ensure they sound right, then retype each misspelled word until it sticks. It's a 10-minute fix that compounds into stronger grammar, better spelling, and—crucially—confidence. If they can write it, they can read it. And as sentences become body paragraphs and paragraphs become essays, organization emerges from a fast, creative mind.You'll hear vivid case studies. High schoolers in his pilot went from near-zero percentiles to college-ready performance in a single school year. A homeschooled fifth grader climbed from the 11th to the 64th percentile in reading and from the 4th to 65th in writing, with grammar hitting the 97th percentile. The common thread is motivation: specificity beats slog. Start with a student's genuine specialty, then use targeted questions to move from the specific to the general, borrowing the “context, problem, solution” frame from The Craft of Research to teach structure early. We even map how a 10-year-old building a Mars literature review can learn the peer-review process years ahead of schedule.We also talk access. Russell's program pairs weekly expert guidance with a full curriculum—from corrected sentences to publishable work—at a price families can manage. The goal isn't endless accommodation; it's training that respects how neurodiverse brains learn and transfers to real classrooms. If you're a parent, teacher, or curious learner ready for tools that work, tune in, try the sentence routine, and see what shifts for your student this week. If it helps, share the episode, subscribe for more practical strategies, and leave a review to tell us what changed for you.Support the showSJ CHILDS - SOCIALS & WEBSITE MASTER LIST WEBSITES - Stream-Able Live — https://www.streamable.live-COMING SOON - The SJ Childs Global Network — https://www.sjchilds.org - The SJ Childs Show Podcast Page — https://www.sjchildsshow.com YOUTUBE - The SJ Childs Show — https://www.youtube.com/@sjchildsshow - Louie Lou (Cats Channel) — https://www.youtube.com/@2catslouielou FACEBOOK - Personal Profile — https://www.facebook.com/sara.gullihur.bradford - Business Page — https://www.facebook.com/sjchildsllc - The SJ Childs Global Network — https://www.facebook.com/sjchildsglobalnetwork - The SJ Childs Show — https://www.facebook.com/SJChildsShow INSTAGRAM - https://www.instagram.com/sjchildsllc/ TIKTOK - https://www.tiktok.com/@sjchildsllc LINKEDIN - https://www.linkedin.com/in/sjchilds/ PODCAST PLATFORMS - Spotify — https://open.spotify.com/show/4qgD3ZMOB2unfPxqacu3cC - Apple Podcasts — https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-sj-childs-show/id1548143291 CONTACT EMAIL - sjchildsllc@gmail.com

In this conversation, Golda speaks movingly about her childhood and family: how her mother, a white social worker, met her father, a Guyanese Anglican priest, by chance at a choir rehearsal in Jamaica. She reflects on discovering she was dyslexic, navigating rejection, experiencing racism, struggling with motivation - and even failing an early audition for Bridgerton. Plus: why representation is so important. ✨ IN THIS EPISODE: 00:00 Introduction 04:12 Impact of Representation and Public Recognition 08:39 Challenges with Dyslexia 21:15 Navigating Identity and Belonging 28:10 Professional Challenges and Identity 29:08 Casting and Industry Feedback 29:47 Facing Rejection and Overcoming Setbacks 30:32 Failed Auditions and Lessons Learned 31:45 Challenges of Racial Identity in Theatre 34:04 Progress in Representation and Diversity 35:35 Reflecting on Parental Influence 38:58 Navigating Personal and Professional Identity 40:36 Struggles with Exercise and Motivation 47:54 Final Thoughts and Legacy

If your child seems “fine” at school but falls apart the moment they get home, you are so not alone. In this episode of Together In Literacy, we unpack the concept of restraint collapse—what happens when kids use up all their emotional and cognitive energy during the school day and then finally let it all out in their safest place: home. We talk specifically about why this is especially common for children with dyslexia and other learning differences, what this can look like after school, and how families can respond in ways that are supportive, realistic, and manageable (even on the busiest days). You'll walk away with language to better understand what's happening, practical ideas for creating a softer after-school landing, and simple strategies that support both kids and the adults who love them.
