About this episode

Kristen Carder discusses the complexities of dyslexia and its overlap with ADHD with expert Natalie Brooks.

In this episode, I sit down with dyslexia expert Natalie Brooks for a powerful, eye-opening conversation about what dyslexia really looks like and how it often overlaps with ADHD in ways that can be confusing, frustrating, and deeply validating once understood. Whether you’ve been diagnosed, suspect you might have dyslexia, or love someone who does, this episode will help you connect the dots and feel less alone. We also dive into Natalie’s new book, Dyslexia Unlocked, which offers practical tools and empowering insights for dyslexic adults navigating a world that wasn’t designed for their brains.
