In this moving episode of Don't Call On Me - The Dyslexia Podcast, Megan and Eryn sit down with Dr. Jeffrey Karp, PhD. to explore a pivotal moment that changed the course of his life. As a young child struggling in school, unable to read, recall, or conform to classroom norms, Jeffrey felt lost, anxious, and misunderstood. But during a summer in special education, a single question opened a door: “How did you think about that?” That moment sparked a journey of self-awareness, process-oriented thinking, and ultimately, empowerment. Join us as Jeffrey shares how that question led him to develop tools for navigating learning differences and redefining success. 

Dr. Karp is a passionate mentor and biomedical engineering professor at Harvard Medical School and MIT, a Distinguished Chair at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, and a fellow of the National Academy of Inventors. This episode is a powerful reminder of how the right question at the right time can change everything.
