Finally, an answer for dyslexia. In this episode, Jill Stowell reveals what dyslexia really feels like, why bright students struggle, and the underlying auditory, visual, and kinesthetic factors that make reading and writing difficult. Real stories show both the challenges and the hidden strengths of dyslexic learners, while parents gain clear steps to recognize the signs, talk openly with their child, and seek real solutions.

 

IN THIS EPISODE:

Dyslexia isn’t a problem of effort or intelligence—it’s a difference in how the brain processes information. 

Jill Stowell explains the lived experience of dyslexia and breaks down the underlying auditory, visual, and kinesthetic factors that make reading and writing hard, while offering clear next steps for parents and teachers. 

Real stories highlight both the struggles and the strengths of dyslexic learners.

• What dyslexia feels like day to day, and why bright, creative students may still struggle in school.
• The three core components: auditory processing (sound discrimination/sequence), visual processing and disorientation, and kinesthetic/writing challenges (including dysgraphia).
• Practical guidance for parents: recognize the signs, talk openly with your child, and seek solutions that strengthen underlying skills—not just classroom accommodations.
