In this episode of the Don't Call On Me Podcast, we sit down with Abigail Griebelbauer, an inspiring advocate, educator, and author who transformed her personal experiences with dyslexia into a mission to educate and empower others. Diagnosed in second grade, Abigail worked tirelessly to excel in school, leaning on her determination, accommodations, and support from teachers and friends. After earning her degree in Special and Elementary Education, she taught 5th grade before embarking on an unexpected journey as a children's book author.
Abigail discusses her Empower Empathy Early series, including the highly acclaimed books D is for Darcy Not Dyslexia and A is for Anthony Not ADHD, and gives us a sneak peek into her upcoming work on dyscalculia. She also shares the profound impact of speaking about dyslexia to young students through the Joseph Maley Foundation, sparking awareness and empathy in the next generation.
Join us as Abigail reflects on the challenges and strengths of living with dyslexia, the joy of connecting with students and parents, and the unexpected paths that led her to where she is today. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of resilience, creativity, and the power of story.
