About Our Podcast
Our story began when Eryn Schnel Yolac from Advocate to Educate and Megan Pinchback from Dyslexia on Demand crossed paths. We both have dedicated our lives to advocating for the dyslexia community, and through our work, we realized the power of sharing real, personal stories.
We started Don't Call On Me because we know how important it is to talk about the highs, the lows, and everything in between. That’s why we wanted to create a place where we could have deeper conversations and bring together voices that inspire, support, and uplift.
On this podcast, you’ll hear firsthand stories, expert advice, and candid discussions that break down misconceptions and build a community of understanding. We’re here to remind you that you’re not alone and to celebrate the resilience and strength within each of us.
How did we make this happen?
