Gwen Stefani shares how music played a role in overcoming Dyslexia

Music has always been a sweet escape for Gwen Stefani. The singer – who was honoured at the New York Women in Communications 52nd Annual Matrix Awards – reflected on growing up with dyslexia, noting how much things changed for her when she started communicating through music. "It's something that I never expected – that I would be a communicator," Gwen exclusively told E! News at the NYC event. "And now when I look back at it, it's like that's what I was. I just was literally channelling my story through music, and what I think I loved about the music was there were no rules. I grew up dyslexic. I didn't realise it – in terms of why it was so hard for me." "I just felt like I didn't really fit in when everyone else was understanding," the Voice coach continued. "I was like, ‘What is going on? I'm drowning.' But then when I found music, it was like I was able to communicate with very few words." And as the Grammy winner explained, that universal ability served as the building blocks for her future.
