This week’s conversation draws our attention to the plight of non diagnosed Dyslexia through Simon Rumney’s life of shame and the inspiration it now brings to his writing.
Simon has battled with low self-worth, shame and guilt his entire life.
“I was a failure in the womb.”
It all stems from a loveless childhood with traumatized parents and un-diagnosed Dyslexia which left him unprepared for the world. Although he has managed to be hugely successful with his career and prospects, he consistently sabotaged it. Only now, at the age of 66, does he feel close to getting on top of his chronic shame and self-deprecation.
What Simon brings to this conversation is a wealth of inspiration for people with learning disabilities and insight for those who live and work with them. Moreover, it gives the rest of us an opportunity to open our eyes to the ways we communicate and understand each other.

so much genuine unconditional love and support and this was very motivational to me because I suffer with ADHD and have always felt like I didn‘t measure up and I‘ve been a consistent failure..... I enjoyed the deep questions....I see a little light for my future I am just on the sidelines of life and praying for the courage to try again with getting a job an apartment....I‘ve been through so much as a person who has mental health issues and a learning disability my career endeavors have been very challenging and I‘ve just operated in a state of fear wondering when I was going to get fired because I‘ve been fired so many times..... hearing his story has given me an ounce courage to try again....thank you...
