From Diagnosed to Dedicated: Lainie Donnell's Journey Through Learning Differences| Dont Call On Me, The Dyslexia Podcast Ep. 40

In this episode of Don't Call on Me, The Dyslexia Podcast, Megan and Eryn sit down with Lainie S. Donnell, an educational therapist, college counselor, and transition specialist who brings deep empathy and expertise to her work because she's walked the path herself. Diagnosed with dyslexia and processing deficits in second grade, and ADHD in high school, Lainie shares how her personal academic challenges shaped her career and fueled her passion for supporting students with learning differences.

Now in private practice for over 16 years, Lainie blends practical strategies with heartfelt understanding, empowering students to navigate school and life with confidence. Together, they talk about the power of early intervention, the importance of transition support, and why embracing your neurodiversity can be the key to unlocking your full potential.

Whether you're a parent, educator, or student, this conversation is full of wisdom, hope, and real-world advice you don't want to miss.
