In this inspiring episode of The Motherhood Experience, we sit down with Lynn Greenberg—mom of four, grandmother, and now award-winning children's book author. Lynn opens up about her motherhood journey, including the challenges and triumphs of supporting her youngest son, who was diagnosed with dyslexia at a young age.
When her local school district failed to offer adequate support, Lynn followed her maternal instincts, made major sacrifices, and enrolled her son in a specialized private school 45 minutes away. Her perseverance paid off: her son went on to earn an MFA, thrive as an artist, and co-author and illustrate Robby the Dyslexic Taxi, an award-winning children's book they created together.
Lynn shares:
How she advocated for her son despite resistance from the school system
The emotional and logistical challenges of parenting a child with learning differences
What it was like to write a book with her son—and how it was a joyful experience
Why she’s excited about this next chapter as a grandmother and children’s book author
Her powerful advice to all moms: “Trust your gut.”
Whether you're a parent navigating special education or simply need encouragement in your motherhood journey, Lynn's story is a testament to the strength, resilience, and intuition of moms everywhere.
