I have made mistakes, laughed, and cried along my parenting journey with my dyslexic daughter. I spent so much time on internet searches and social media, trying to figure it all out how to get our daughter tested for dyslexia, where to find the right remediation, what accommodations work for her, when and how to tell her she was dyslexic, and how to protect her self-esteem through it all. Honestly, it took a huge toll on our family and my sanity! I finally realized that if I was going to keep my sanity and help my daughter thrive in this new dyslexia lifestyle, I had to trust my intuition about what was best for her and our family. I had done all the research, read all the books, and found a way to connect with my daughter, building a strong mother-daughter relationship that would outlive her school years. Of course, I have my fair share of bumps, bruises, and wrong turns along our journey, but one thing is constant - my love for my daughter, and that I can do this (figure out dyslexia and be the best mom to my daughter)!

Episode 153
Tuesday, 19 August, 2025
Since before my daughter was born, I can remember buying her books. We read to her when she was young, and as she got older, we would take her to the library and bookstores to spark her reading. There are many books in our house that she has never opened. We know that reading is essential to her success - we live in a reading world. Now, you wouldn’t know that our daughter didn’t always love to read. She carries a book with her everywhere she goes now - to school, to dinner, in the car... anytime she has downtime, she is reading. Want to know how that happened? Let’s dig into the 3 steps that led her to become an avid reader.You Got This!Understanding Your Child's Dyslexia Workshop - Spotify / Apple Podcasts / YouTubeSign up for the DML Weekly NewsletterAll things dyslexia and parenting --> www.dyslexiamomlife.comFree Dyslexia Mom Life Podcast Community --> www.facebook.com/groups/dyslexiamomlifeSupport the show
