Join us for an inspiring episode featuring Katie Selby, a remarkable individual who has faced the challenges of living with a language impairment and a learning disability since a young age. Katie's journey began with diagnoses at the tender ages of three and five, setting her on a path that would require resilience and determination.

Despite the discouraging advice she received, including the suggestion to forgo college, Katie pursued her lifelong dream. Through unwavering determination, she not only attended college but also learned how to advocate for her educational needs. Armed with a college degree, Katie now supports individuals with disabilities in both school and home settings, helping them achieve their goals and independence.

Katie's unique social circle consists entirely of friends who share her experiences with disabilities, forming a tight-knit community that has enabled her to share her story with the world. She began by writing a powerful blog article for "The Mighty" and has since spread her message on various learning disability social media platforms. Currently working on a book about her life, Katie is also gearing up for more motivational speaking engagements in the future.

Join us as we delve into Katie's remarkable journey, filled with determination, advocacy, and the relentless pursuit of dreams, and discover how she's inspiring others along the way.
