Imagine standing at the foot of a mountain, the peak obscured by clouds. Each step is a struggle, each breath a reminder of the altitude’s thin air.

This is how Stephanie Ruhle felt living with dyslexia in school—an ever-present towering challenge that seemed insurmountable.

Stephanie’s journey with dyslexia was fully realized as an adult when, while having her oldest son evaluated for dyslexia, she discovered that the reading difficulties she had encountered in school were rooted in the same condition.

As a child, Stephanie’s exceptional memory allowed her to mask her dyslexia. She could memorize words so well that people believed she was an excellent reader. She even started school early due to her excellent memory for words.

However, as school got tougher in second and third grade, understanding complex stories became challenging. Despite these challenges…

Stephanie never gave up.

She persevered and eventually achieved her dream job as a news anchor at MSNBC. In an inspiring interview, she shares her journey and preparation for the show, further emphasizing remarkable achievements despite her dyslexia.

With over 40 million Americans living with dyslexia, only about 2 million have been diagnosed. Stephanie’s story highlights the complexities of dyslexia while also showcasing unique skills that can be developed. Despite facing difficulties, she learned to adapt and find her own path.
