Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
As parents and caregivers of dyslexic kids, it’s important to try to set bigger-picture and longer-term goals to make progress in moving towards better skills, as well as more independence and self-advocacy. Otherwise, it’s easy to get lost in the busyness of everyday life. However, it can sometimes feel like something pressing is cropping up to deal with in the moment–on a weekly, or even a daily–that is more urgent. How can we resolve this tension?
We're Sonja and Nick — parents of a dyslexic kid and your guides on this journey. We created Dyslexia Journey because we know how isolating it can feel when your child struggles with reading and school isn't helping. Every episode brings practical strategies, expert interviews with psychologists, educators, and reading specialists, plus real stories from dyslexic adults who've thrived. Whether you're a parent navigating diagnosis, IEPs, and accommodations, or a dyslexic adult looking for community — this show is for you. Got a question or a guest idea?
