#174: Dyslexia, ADHD, Identity and Labels: Taking Control of Your Own Dyslexia Story with Helen Ross

In this episode of the Dyslexia Explored Podcast, hosts Darius Namdaran and Jo Lee introduce Dr. Helen Ross, an inspiring educator, researcher, and advocate who shares her profound insights into neurodiversity. They discuss a range of topics, including the heavy mental load and masking experienced by neurodivergent girls during key life transitions, the transformative power of EdTech and AI, and why it is often more important to be 'well-informed' rather than simply 'well-read.' Dr. Ross also reflects on her personal academic journey to achieving a PhD, the systemic challenges faced by SENCOs in education, and the empowering realization of claiming your own label and identity with dyslexia and ADHD. Join this insightful conversation to explore how neurodivergent individuals can play to their strengths, self-advocate, and find grace within a complex educational system.
