Truth About Dyslexia Podcast

I'm so impressed by the fight that Jamie Oliver is going on with Dyslexia.

Only 2 in 10 kids in the UK (maybe fewer in the US) get diagnosed with Dyslexia when they have it.

It's not good enough.

Too many kids are being missed and paying the price.

Appreciate you sharing this message.

Jamie Oliver has been fighting for the truth about dyslexia for years… but the world didn’t want to listen.In this video, we break down how one of the world’...

This is a great book. It's a bit heavy would recommend listening to it ad 1.2x Speed.

But full of absolute gold.

30 years ago, Ron Davis published The Gift of Dyslexia after discovering the root cause of his own reading struggles.
Today, that book has created an entire profession of Davis Facilitators worldwide.
Our latest blog features six facilitators whose career paths changed after experiencing the Davis Method:
→ Anne: Reading teacher whose university training couldn't help her own son
→ Emily: Mother who became facilitator after her child's change
→ Carl: Adult dyslexic who now ensures children don't face his struggles
→ Nadine: University student who found new purpose at 40+
→ Cheryl: 20-year Davis veteran who treasures her signed copy as "one of my most prized books"
→ Margot: Discovered Davis tools go beyond reading to life regulation
Each discovered that their personal challenges became their professional strengths.
The Gift of Dyslexia Workshop (July 14-18) offers pathways for those considering meaningful career changes in neurodivergent support.

A question we get asked a lot. This is my opinion.

Is dyslexia a learning disability? Technically yes, but the truth is more complex. Discover why the “superpower” label doesn’t tell the full story either.

🇳🇿 Kiwis, We Need Your Help! 🇳🇿

Dyslexic voices in NZ are at risk of being left out of crucial research – and that means missing out on future support, funding, and real change.

The NZ Institute of Economic Research (NZIER) is studying the employment experiences of neurodivergent people. They’ve had heaps of responses from the ADHD and autistic communities – but barely any from the dyslexic community.

That’s a problem. If we don’t speak up, decisions will be made without us.

💡 Why this matters:
✅ Better workplace support for dyslexic employees
✅ Stronger case for funding and policy change
✅ Real data to fight for the changes we need

📢 Dyslexic Kiwis, we need you! Take 5 mins to have your say:
