Imagine learning to read at 12 and then dropping out of school for a year and a half only to find out you had ADHD & Dyslexia. What would you do, where would you go, and how would you turn your life around? This is the story of Jonathan Mooney. A man who discovered his different ways of thinking and turned his life around. He went back to school and turned his previous weaknesses into strengths graduating from Brown University with an Honours Degree in English. Jonathan has also written 3 best-selling books. This story has the power to change your life, the way you think and your opinion on the neurologically diverse and how they could be the leaders of tomorrow.
Personable is a podcast dedicated to helping listeners become the best they can be by learning from the world’s best in their respective fields. This mission is inspired by my mother, Louise, who encouraged me to become the best version of myself before she passed away from cancer in 2023.
