Episode 42 - Coping With Negativity
Do you feel your dyslexia is holding you back?
It is understood that, by the age of 10, a person with ADHD will receive over 20,000 negative comments relating to their ADHD.
Whilst this statistic is specific to ADHD, it is expected that this is also the case for people with all neurodiversites especially dyslexia. And if that is the number by age 10, imagine what the number is when you reach adulthood!
The fact is that, whist attitudes may be getting better with wider understanding, the negativity around the challenges faced with people with any type of neurodiversity is still staggering and has profound affects on those people for their whole lives.
In this episode, I talk about how I work with my 1 to 1 clients to establish some of this root negativities of their dyslexia which is holding them back and getting the way of them succeeding.
