In this episode of Genuine Life Recovery, I’m joined by fellow dyslexic and storyteller Juliet Hahn for a real, honest conversation about our personal journeys with dyslexia, anxiety, and the mental health challenges that shaped our lives. We explore how learning differences can deeply affect self-esteem, emotional health, and—in my case—lead to struggles with addiction.
Together, we unpack the often-overlooked connection between dyslexia, addiction, anxiety, and menta health; as well as the critical importance of early support and understanding, especially for kids. This episode sheds light on how dyslexia influences identity and mental wellness, the unique gifts that come with neurodivergence, and the role faith and community play in recovery.
Whether you’re navigating these challenges yourself or supporting someone who is, this conversation offers encouragement, perspective, and practical tools for the journey. Juliet Hahn is an inspirational podcast host and keynote speaker. Visit her website here!
