Reflections 💪🏽✅
Thank you to everyone who listened to today live. It was definitely a reflection session for me which I think helped me more than anything 🤣🤣.
I hope you enjoyed seeing my brain process and how I talk to myself as it’s a daily thing for me. Apologies it was a bit all over the place but that’s me and I’m all about showing that.
In the episode I spoke about
✨My past and how that has shaped me
✨The future and what I have planned
✨Accountability which I definitely need to stay now I declared it to everyone.
A massive thank you to everyone who has supported me and given me kind words. You really help me to keep going especially when days are rough 🤍✨. So I’m always grateful for you all as yes what I want to do is help you all but your words truly push me to become better and stronger.
I will be back with even more things and this series will be returning at some point. However, you can’t get rid of me 🤣🤣 as I will be hopping on Instagram live every now and then to chat with you all.

This episode was all about my thoughts on technology and tackling the topic of accessibility.
I’ve been thinking a lot about this recently due to my work with the UN Women UK as a delegate. As the theme circles around technology I wanted to speak about my experiences using tech as a dyslexic woman.
Let me know your thoughts about technology and if it’s accessible and what can we do to make a change in this.
I really enjoyed the episode today and had so much energy as you could see. As a dyslexic person I love to talk with my hands and today was a very handy today. If your listening on a podcast streaming provided you can go to my Instagram at The Dyslexic Movement to see what I'm on about.
Leave your opinions in the comments about technology and how it can help dyslexic people.

Dyslexia and switching off
In today episode I spoke about my challenge with switching my brain off.
I am known to be an over thinker and my brain feels like it’s constantly thinking about things. Whether this is about work, something that happened a couple weeks ago or a conversation I had years ago and should have said something.
I’m curious to know if other dyslexic people have this challenge of always thinking and what you do about it.
I did mention that having a routine has really helped my brain to switch off. As during either gym or dance my brain leaves me be and I can get on with it.
Is there a way to train your brain into thinking less at certain times🤨
Let me know if you are like me and struggle with switching off. Also if you have overcome this let me know in the comments.

Thank you for tuning in to today live which was all about dyslexia and the world of dating.
I spoke about my experience with these as well as what challenges can arise when dating as a dyslexic person. I really looked at communication, misunderstandings, working memory and much more.
A healthy relationship requires understanding from other ends and sometimes it may be tricky. However us dyslexic people can date and have amazing relations.

Today episode will be about sport and how my dyslexia helped me but also created some challenges.
In the episode I speak about my experiences in sport how my dyslexia affected me whilst playing sport, the strengths I brought the weakness I faced and just generally speaking about the need to hear more voices in the sporting world about neurodiversity.
I have something in the pipeline regarding some more content about sport so watch out for that. But for now I want this to spark conversations about the sporting world and dyslexia and how we can better support neurodivergent people in sport.

Hopefully this was helpful for people out there. I’ve been lucky to have a positive experience but like a stated in the video that isn’t always the case.
If you have any questions then pop them in the comments or send me a message as another in-depth video will be coming soon

Dyslexia and finding the right words
Thank you for tuning into my fourth episode where I talk about my love-hate relationship with words.
It can be hard finding the right words sometimes and it’s annoying when you can see them but the word won’t come out. I know there are links to dyslexia and phonics and I talk about this in the video.
I’m really interested in the science behind this and I am on a mission to learn more about it as I do really find it intriguing.
My next episode will be Tuesday 17th January where I will be talking about working full-time with dyslexia.
So stay tuned 🤍✨
In this episode I talk about university, what I did, what support is out there tips and tricks and much more.
I definitely had a bit of a dyslexic moment and you know what that’s fine. I do these to be real and honest and show what’s it like being dyslexic. I can’t always find the words and I sometimes go on a completely different topic. But I hope you can relate watching this as today one of my days where my brain truly has a mind of its own.
I hope you have an amazing Christmas holiday and I’ll be back before the New Years with my next episode.
Is there a link to this ?? This episode was about me getting my thoughts out there and asking if there is a link to dyslexia and tiredness.
I share a few examples of where for me I think this affects me and I’m very curious to see if this is the same for other dyslexic and people who have other neurodivergent conditions.
Dyslexia and My experience
This podcast is to get to know me and what my story so far with dyslexia has been like. I'm all about being realistic and showing what my dyslexia looks like as a 24 year old and what positives and negatives that come with it.
