S07|15 - Dyslexia in our Kids

Are you supporting someone you love with dyslexia? Or have you wondered if you or your child might have dyslexia? It’s more common than you think! Understanding and treating dyslexia in our home, without shame, is key to creating lifelong readers, writers and learners. On today’s episode we talk all about this with expert, Melia Keeton-Digby. 

Melia is an author and speech-language pathologist specializing in dyslexia. She is the founder and creator of The Nest, a sacred gathering space in Georgia, USA, where she first birthed her mother-daughter and mother-son empowerment circles, on which her books are based. She works in private practice, offering dyslexia evaluations, intervention, and advocacy. Melia is the author of The Heroines Club: A Mother-Daughter Empowerment Circle (Womancraft Publishing, 2014) and The Hero's Heart: A Coming of Age Circle for Boys and the Mothers Who Love Them ( Womancraft Publishing, 2016). Melia is passionate about supporting parents in raising confident and connected children.

In this week’s episode you’ll learn: 

• What warning signs to look out for if you think your child might have dyslexia (key: intuition!)
• How kids with dyslexia are often highly creative and intelligent, and how you can foster that, while teaching them reading and writing
• Un-shaming dyslexia
• What supports there are for your children in helping them learn to read and write
• The heroine’s and hero’s journey and how you can support your family and community
