Stephanie, 48, revealed her struggle with dyslexia.
Today hosts Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb interviewed the 11th Hour MSNBC host on Wednesday.
“I can’t believe I’m on here talking about this,” Stephanie said. “Like I cannot.”
The MSNBC host put her head in her hand and shook her head.
“This was never my plan.”
Stephanie recently shared an Instagram post about dealing with dyslexia while reading on a flight.
She said her son also battles dyslexia and she thought about him that day as he was in school struggling.
When she got off her flight, Stephanie had dozens of messages from her followers saying they all went through the same thing.
“School ends. Many people think, ‘I’m going to give up.’ Hang on. Life awaits,” she told the Today hosts.
STEPHANIE’S STORY
Stephanie said she was only diagnosed 10 years ago when her son was.

“Many people think it’s when the words are backwards or the letters are inside out and that’s not it,” she shared.
Stephanie said that people thought she was a super reader because she could memorize words.
However, when comprehension started in first grade, that’s when she got “in her head” and “started cheating.”
She said that her oldest son couldn’t finish his stories and her youngest son had to do it for him, so his teacher told him to get checked out and that’s when he was diagnosed.
Stephanie went on to say that she sees Hoda, 59, and Savannah, 52, tell 15 stories in 10 minutes and admitted that she can’t do that.
On the 11th Hour, she uses index cards, sharpies, and highlighters to go through each subject and her notes easily.
STEPHANIE’S POST
On February 15, Stephanie talked about her struggle with dyslexia on her Instagram.
“This message is for any dyslexic out there hating school right now,” she began the post.
“I totally get it. School sucks. Paying attention is impossible. No matter how many times you read the words on the page, they don’t seem to interact with your brain.”
“The weather is cold. School is boring. Nothing feels good,” Stephanie wrote.
“Here’s the good news. You won’t be in school forever. And that linear thinking forced upon you in school… It’s a loser in life! Your creative mind, unconventional instincts & high eiq will serve you well in the long run.”
“But in order to play the long game, you’ve got to stay in the game. Take a breathe. Take a walk. Don’t fight the system. Don’t cheat, (it’s just not worth it). Find your people and your path to survive,” she went on.
Stephanie repeated that school ends and most of the subjects people learn won’t be in their next chapter.
“And the real world can’t wait for you to unleash your awesomeness,” she ended.
