Who is Elisheva Schwartz and what motivated her to start The Dyslexia Quest?
Imagine setting your makeup, then forgetting it's even there. Meet new grippy setting mist from Maybelline New York. Gel-to-mist technology locks in your look for up to 24 hours with flexible, all-day comfy grip. No tightness, no stickiness, no residue. Just plump, dewy, hydrated skin that still feels like your skin. Try new grippy setting mist from Maybelline New York. Maybe it's Maybelline.
Hey there, it's Debbie. Today's episode is a special re-release of a favorite conversation from the archives. Unless you're a longtime listener of the show, there's a good chance you haven't heard this one before. And even if you have, you just might get something completely different from it this time around.
a lot of these children, these younger children that are growing up in this super advocate for dyslexia, dyslexia is a gift generation, sometimes feel pressure that they need to demonstrate how creative they are. They need to demonstrate how entrepreneurial they are. They need to demonstrate how design savvy they are to kind of prove that they're part of the club. So basically what a lot of parents are doing is Because their children are not doing well in the traditional school system, they're often feeling nervous. And so they put a whole nother box. They say, you don't need to fit into this box, but fit into that box.
Welcome to the Tilt Parenting Podcast, a podcast featuring interviews and conversations aimed at inspiring, informing, and supporting parents raising differently wired kids. I'm your host, Debbie Reber. And this week, I'm talking with Elisheva Schwartz, a dyslexia researcher and mother, wife, intelligence redefiner, and host of the Dyslexia Quest podcast. Elisheva is on a mission to decode the dyslexic mind and empower the dyslexic community to fully understand both the strengths and the difficulties of the processing style. If you have a child with learning differences like dyslexia, this is a must listen to episode. Ella Sheva gets personal and shares her story of her own childhood of struggling to reconcile her passion for learning with repeatedly being told she was learning disabled.
Ella Sheva has channeled the pain of her own childhood journey to helping families raising kids with learning differences, help their kids feel empowered and confident about who they are while also knowing how to advocate for them in school. I hope you enjoy our conversation. And before I get to the episode, if you've heard some buzz about my book Differently Wired yet, but you haven't checked it out, I invite you to download the first chapter and table of contents at tiltparenting.com book. And if you have read it already and liked what you read, I would be grateful if you would consider leaving a review on Amazon and or Goodreads. More reviews means more visibility for the book, and I want to make sure that people who would benefit from its message can easily find it.
Lastly, if you're reading Differently Wired as a group online and you would like me to join you for a Facebook Live or Facebook chat, just send me a message via the Tilt Parenting Facebook page or email me at debbie at tiltparenting.com and we'll see what we can do. And if you're looking to read it as a group for an in-person book club, I would love to find a way to even just Skype into your group. So go to tiltparenting.com slash book and click on the learn more button where it says, is your book club reading differently wired? And you can follow the steps there to connect with me about your book club. Thank you so much. And now here is my conversation with Ella Sheva.
Hello, Elisheva. Welcome to the podcast. Thanks, Debbie. I'm excited to be here. It's a real treat to not be in the driver's seat today and be interviewed. So I'm excited to do this.
Well, you just sit back and relax in the passenger seat. And yeah, we'll just have a nice conversation. I haven't done a lot of episodes specifically around dyslexia. And so I'm really excited to learn more about your work and to share the resources that you have with our listeners.
