Being the biggest inspiration for dyslexic and neurodivergent entrepreneurs across the globe, he inspires all of us to keep being ourselves, and honour our unique abilities, and most importantly never stop thinking differently 🧠 Thank you Richard, please keep inspiring us to take risks and be ourselves each day. Stay tuned for what happens in 2023”

“Friendly reminder that you should never be scared to disclose your autism/ADHD/dyslexia/dyspraxia/neurodivergence of any kind on a job application. Any employer that would let a disability disclosure cloud their judgement is an employer that’s not worth your time. Less “am I good enough for them?”… More “are they good enough for ME?” 🤔”
