Have you ever wondered what it's like to walk in the shoes of a neurodistinct person? My guest today, Will Wheeler, lives with dyslexia and ADHD and he is here to tell us about his journey - from his childhood struggles to his quest for personal change, and how he turned his life around to become a champion for neurodiverse individuals. His tale is filled with resilience and reinvention.
In a world that often misunderstands neurodiversity, Will's story is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the power of self-reflection. He and myself, a fellow neurodivergent person, share our experiences growing up in the education system with learning difficulties, emphasizing the power of emotional intelligence in understanding and supporting neurodiversity.
Today, Will is using his experiences to reshape the educational landscape for neurodiverse people. He supports neurodiversity through the Neurodiversity Academy, aimed at helping neurodiverse individuals excel in international education. His tale is indeed riveting and will leave you with a newfound understanding and appreciation for neurodiversity. As we draw our conversation to a close, you'll be left with an awe for the strength that lies in embracing our unique traits. So, sit back, tune in, and prepare to be inspired.
