It wasn't really until I went to college that I learned how I learn for one, which is I'm a kinesthetic learner. I like, I learned by doing and sign language, like a visual learning was the only class that I rocked and I didn't have to study for. I know you talk about you, you know, there were classes you didn't have to study for. That was never my experience.

And I also in college started focusing on things that I really enjoyed. And I know the quote, like, energy is not created or destroyed. And so with the learning disability label, I thought something was wrong with me. I thought that I was limited.

And so I just want to remind people that may have a limitation, a disability, that actually that disability is an ability. You're going to have other abilities developed. And that I want to be a voice for people because I have ADHD. I have dyslexia, mild.
