Pet peeves for dyslexics and why we were all born to dance with Charlotte Edmonds

Episode Description: On today’s episode of the podcast, I’m joined by choreographer, dancer and filmmaker Charlotte Edmonds. In the episode, Charlotte and Andrew talk about why we were all born to move and dance. They discuss some of our biggest pet peeves around dyslexia, and the perils of writing emails for dyslexic. Top Quotes: “I feel like dyslexia has made me empathetic to other people. That’s my invisible gift.” - Charlotte Edmonds "When you look at other cultures, dance and movement is far more important. In western societies we seem to suppress it but for me - we were all born to dance." - Andrew Kitley About the host: The Invisible Gift is hosted by entrepreneur and dyslexic, Andrew Kitley. With twenty years experience, Andrew Kitley has worked his way up the metaphorical and literal ladder to become Managing Director of Kitall: an engineering firm. Under Andrew's guidance, Kitall is now one of the most sought after names to complete complex engineering projects in the UK. In each episode of The Invisible Gift, Andrew seeks the advice and inspiration of a fellow trailblazer who has defied the odds to achieve the extraordinary - turning the challenge of dyslexia into a gift.
