It wasn’t until he moved to Saudi Arabia and attended a British school that his dyslexia was identified.

During his conversation with host Matthew Head, Stephen reveals how he harnessed his skill set to teach complex subjects through compelling narratives, launching his entrepreneurial career. He also acknowledges his mother as a significant supporter who became an expert on dyslexia overnight to ensure he received necessary support.
