Episode 2: The Day I Found Out I Was Dyslexic

In this powerful and personal episode, host [Your Name] shares how her daughter’s dyslexia diagnosis revealed a truth she never expected—she had it too. After years of struggling in silence, misreading, masking, and pushing through with twice the effort, everything finally made sense.

Dyslexia is neurological. The brain processes information differently—sometimes it’s jumbled, incomplete, or forgotten. This episode explores the hidden signs, the emotional toll of being undiagnosed, and the healing that comes from understanding yourself and your child.

“I cried—not because she had it, but because I realized I had it too… and no one ever noticed.”

🎙️ Topics Covered:

• Signs of dyslexia in adults and children
• What does it mean to “read the world differently”
• The emotional impact of late discovery
• How understanding can lead to generational healing
