Episode 14 - Confidence in Dyslexia - My Keynote Speech at the Dyslexia Show (Part 1)
*** Join the Newsletter here: Newsletter ***
In this week's episode I share with you the highlights from a talk I delivered as a keynote speaker at the Dyslexia Show.
The Dyslexia Show was held in Birmingham and the NEC in the UK on the 23rd and 24th March 2023. There were a host of great talks and displays and support for people with dyslexia.
I was honoured to be asked to give a talk. For this year, I want to address the topic of Confidence in Dyslexia because it's not an easy subject that is often discussed.
This is a two part episode with the second landing next week.
This week I share with why people with dyslexia struggle with confidence so much and why we always feel like we need to apologise for it.
This is a topic we often talk about in the Hive and in our newsletter so if you haven't subscribed yet, what are you wanting for? Links to website and newsletter are provided here in the shownotes.
Key topics:
- Why do people with dyslexia struggle so much with confidence?
- How we can reframe our language to be more confident, and
- Why confidence with dyslexia is a journey NOT a destination.
