Episode 56 - How to Support your Dyslexic Partner

Flexible and Kind.

These are the essential qualities that I believe everyone should have in their partner, but esspecially for partners of dyslexic people.

In this episode I share a conversation I had wiuth friends over dinner about what are the best qualities and characteristics of a partner for a dyslexic person that they can understand better what support their dyslexic partner needs.

Understanding how dyslexic brains work, helps the partners of dyslexic people understand the importance of 'going with the flow' and being flexible.

Typically, people with dyslexia have some traits which can be frustrating at times, like processing information differently or slower, or misreading directions or lists. BUT... people with dyslexia also typically have traits which are very empathetic and creative, so you could be in for a lot of fun.

If you want to be supportive to your dyslexic partner, be flexible and kind.
