With Dyslexia I felt stupid, that’s truly how I felt. You feel less than other people, but the truth is with dyslexia our brains work in a different way with Shona O'Callaghan

Being diagnosed with dyslexia in her 2nd year of university enabled Shona to understand that her brain was processing information in a different way

The feeling of imposter syndrome that you don’t quite fit in and didn’t deserve to be there

From a background in teaching Shona has started her business helping to empower creative minds

Helping teachers give support to students and to realise their full potential, dyslexia is not just reading and writing, it’s personal calculation, organisation, concentration, speaking and pronunciation.www.empoweringcreativeminds.com Shona@empoweringcreativeminds.com⁠

Sheila West Podcaster

My name is Sheila currently living in Spain and enjoying my life in Valencia. My idea was to have conversations with interesting people and get those stories told.
