My Story
Hello, my name is Julie. I was diagnosed with a learning disability called NVLD (Non-Verbal Learning Disorder) at age 12. School was always hard academically and socially, but got increasingly harder in middle school. That’s when I went to a psychologist for the diagnosis and the right path to follow. After all that, I started homeschooling and occupational therapy. Things have gotten better and easier as time has gone on. With no public school anymore, horseback riding lessons became the new normal social outlet. I have found solitary at-home hobbies that I have gotten interested in and dug deep into (you’ll have to read my blog to learn more about those subject matters!). I have also found that writing has had a therapeutic impact on me. I know how hard it can be to live with a learning disability and how hard it can be to find help. I want to be the person who can help make resources to make your life easier. Anything is possible, just a few more tools are needed to get there! Thanks for visiting my site and following along with my journey. I hope this helps to make your life better.
Where it all started…
Julie’s Neverland is where it all started! I sat down and started to write a blog, and kept adding more and more content to my site when I came up with ideas and hobbies and other things that helped me deal with the struggles of living with NVLD. Here you’ll find lots of blog posts, resources for the kitchen, office, and other little tricks I’ve learned, and don’t forget my heartwarming journey with Yoda, my miniature horse! It’s all here - check it out!
