Several years ago Joellyn bravely stood up in one of my dream board workshops and shared a dream she'd never shared with anyone.
She wanted to write a book. She had zero experience but it was dream God laid on her heart.
After the workshop, Joellyn signed up for my coaching. As they say, the rest is history.
We've been working together ever since!
After we met, life threw her a curveball when her son was diagnosed with dyslexia. Joellyn didn't just become an advocate for dyslexic children but went on to become a dyslexia specialist.
Months later I was thrown the same curveball, just much later in life. I'd always knew something was different with me, but most times I just thought I was stupid. Why could I not get things others kids got?
At age 39, I discovered I’m dyslexic. The roles reversed and Joellyn was now helping me! Our paths were definitely meant to cross.
We both have dreams of standing on a stage, sharing our incredible journey together. And guess what? We know it will happen!
This morning I sent Joellyn a text, “Good luck today! You’ll do fabulous!”
Several hours after that text, I sat at my desk, tears streaming down my face, watching my client, and friend, Joellyn, testify in front of the Indiana House Education Committee on her experience with dyslexia. What a moment!
I’ve spent years being one of her biggest cheerleaders! Who will you cheer on this week?
Blessings,
Stephanie
