Stephanie Manuli is an undergraduate student at North Carolina State University, where she is studying Biochemistry. Stephanie was diagnosed with type 2 narcolepsy without cataplexy in 2014 and is now a trained speaker with Project Sleep’s Rising Voices leadership program. Stephanie shares her story with the goal to raise awareness of this misunderstood condition.
The Rising Voices Series features a variety of first-hand stories from people living with sleep disorders around the world. At Project Sleep, we believe in the power of storytelling to raise awareness and break down stigma. This is why we train people with sleep disorders on how to share their stories through the Rising Voices training program.
