Episode Description from the Publisher

Dylan Smith was adopted from a Russian orphanage, misdiagnosed and put on the wrong medication for 10 years, failed out of nearly every class, and never went to college. Today he's a bestselling author, motivational speaker, and the face of sold-out tours across the country. This episode covers all of it, the orphanage, the dyslexia diagnosis at 16, learning to read from scratch, working for free, building his way into rooms with David Meltzer, Teddy Swims, and more.
