In this powerful and deeply personal episode, Dr. Tim Odegard—renowned dyslexia researcher and advocate—joins hosts Stacy Hurst, Lindsay Kemeny, and Donell Pons for a conversation that challenges conventional thinking and calls for urgent change in how schools approach dyslexia. From his own journey as an undiagnosed struggling reader to his groundbreaking research on the intersection of literacy and mental health, Dr. Odegard shares insights that every educator, policymaker, and parent needs to hear.
Together, they explore how early identification, systemic support, and a deeper understanding of risk and resilience can transform outcomes for students with dyslexia. They also confront the hidden costs of untreated reading difficulties—including long-term impacts on mental and physical health—and discuss how schools can be either a powerful protective factor or a source of chronic stress.
This episode is a compelling call to action—and a hopeful reminder of the difference we can make when we truly see and support every learner.
