Dr. Paul Johnson’s new memoir, Turtles Can Win: How Learning Differences Taught Me to Run My Own Race and Still Cross the Finish Line, shares his remarkable journey from being a student with undiagnosed learning differences who nearly failed out of school to eventually earning three master's degrees and a doctorate from the University of Southern California.
In this interview we discuss:
- the book, of course
- how labels can shape a child’s identity and future
- recognizing learning differences as an adult
- the strengths of neurodivergent learners
- what it means to “run your own race”
- and more!
I know that every listener will enjoy this conversation. I found his parting wisdom especially surprising and something I’m definitely planning to take action on!
