    #142: NLP Performance Coach on Letting Go of Limiting Beliefs in Dyslexia - Bevis Moynan

    In this insightful episode of the Dyslexia Explored podcast, we are thrilled to have performance coach Bevis Moynan join us to share his unique perspective on dyslexia and executive function. Bevis, an expert in motivational mapping, timeline therapy, and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), doesn't have dyslexia himself but has been closely touched by it through family experiences and his professional practice. We delve into his personal journey, discussing the recent dyslexia diagnosis of his daughter and reflecting on the broader impact of dyslexia within his family. 

    This conversation sheds light on the complexities of navigating dyslexia, the challenges faced within the education system, and the potential for innovative support methods like NLP to make a significant difference. Bevis's approach to coaching emphasizes understanding individual learning styles, the importance of neurodiversity, and the power of overcoming limiting beliefs to unlock potential.
