In this chapter, I’ll be interviewing Geoff Hoppe who has NLD. I’ll interview him about his challenges with doing taxes and being in the working world as an NVLDer. I’ll start with Geoff introducing himself.

Today we will discuss the challenges that others experienced in college because of NLD. Some of the content might be triggering if you have experienced difficulty with transitions, homesickness, or child abuse.

Today's episode is about Chloe's and my (Jennifer) life with NLD and why we think NLD is a blessing in disguise.

Another challenge that NVLDers have is estimating distances between two objects. We have this issue because our visual-spatial perception is off and different neurotypicals’. Have you ever had challenges with approximating distance because you don’t have a good sense of how much space is between two objects? I’ve had this experience countless times in my life.

Today, we’ll discuss what it’s like to drive with NLD. Have you ever had a car accident that was caused because you couldn’t judge the space between you and the vehicle in front of you well? Did you get your driver’s license later than most teens or peers because of having a learning challenge? Did you feel like it took forever for you to learn how to drive because the car felt like it was separate from your body instead of an extension of it? I have experienced all of these challenges when driving with NLD and a chronic migraine condition.

This episode is about what it's like to sit in a college class with NLD. Since my episodes are shorter than most podcasts hopefully then they should be easier to listen to and learn from.
