Charlie Sansom- A life long struggle with Dyslexia

On this episode of the Fiercely You podcast you will hear from a beautiful young woman, Charlie. Charlie has grown up on the Mornington Peninsula with her mum, dad and younger sister. She grew up with sport being a huge part of her life, swimming and sailing were her thing.

Charlie shares openly with us her struggles and journey through the Victorian schooling system for someone with Dyslexia. Until meeting Charlie, I had very little understanding about what Dyslexia actually was and how many people actually suffered from it.

Charlie thought she would never be able to complete VCE due to her learning difficulty. Her story is one of pure determination, commitment as well as seeking and accepting help in order to achieve her goal of finishing VCE and going to University.

I hope you enjoy it.

I hope you enjoyed Part 1 of Amanda's story.

In this episode, part # 2, Amanda will share how over the past few years she has struggled to fall pregnant. This has been a very long, emotional and extremely challenging journey for Amanda and her husband Aaron. Amanda shares incredibly openly about what they have been through, the process and the struggles as well as where she is at now.

Amanda has been so incredibly resilient over the past few years with so many disappointments when it comes to falling pregnant, while it seemed like so many around her were falling pregnant with ease. I think it is extremely powerful of Amanda to share about this journey so that we can all learn together and allow this topic to not be so taboo.
