Instead of looking at her learning differences as a disadvantage, Olympic Athlete Adelle Tracey sees her Dyscalculia and Dyslexia as the reasons for why she is so successful as an athlete. She states, "As someone who's dyslexic and is dyscalculic it can be really challenging day to day, particularly with the numbers and distances and times and things. It's something that I've come to realise. The reasons why I do sport have very much to do with the fact that I am neurodiverse as well." Dyscalculia is a much less talked about learning difference than Dyslexia involving numbers and difficulty doing mathematics, recognizing numbers or calculations. Although she says she has missed flights and struggled with other challenges, she attributes her success in athletics to her learning differences. She is now an ambassador for the British Dyslexic Association @bdadyslexia, and proves that the very challenges we could perceive as hindering us, could be the very things that push us to greatness in something we never thought we might excel at! #olympians #parisolympics #parisolympics2024 #learningdifferences #discalculia #dyslexiaawareness #dyslexiaeducation #olympicathlete #olympicrunner #dfwnonprofit #dallasnonprofit #northtexas #overcomingthestigma #texasnonprofit

🌍 Today, on the International Day of Sport for Development and Peace, I reflect on my journey in the sport for development world. From a young girl playing football in a patriarchal community to becoming a transformative force, football has shaped my life in unimaginable ways. 🚀 🤝 As we embrace the theme of "Sport for the Promotion of Peaceful and Inclusive Societies," it's vital that we collectively strive to level the playing field. Let's provide access and meet participants at their unique levels of skill and interest. Together, we can break existing barriers and create more inclusive environments where everyone can pursue their passion for sport without hindrance. 💪 #IDSDP #SportForDevelopment #Inclusion #PeaceBuilding
