Stephanie Henry got fired from Breakfast Television, but her spirits are not down as she is focusing on her own company, “She Auto Know,” and finding joy in “figuring out a new routine.”
Key Takeaways
- Stephanie Henry is best known for hosting “Breakfast Television”.
- She is also the founder of “She Auto Know,” a company helping women figure out their cars.
- Henry recently got “fired” from Breakfast Television.
Stephanie Henry has been working with Rogers Media on Breakfast Television since 2016.
However, the showmakers seem to have decided to change direction, which led to Henry’s firing.
After getting laid off, she has made sure to bring the best out of herself and has even reflected on her time on the show.
Henry admits to having “grown up” with the show and her audience and how the show gave her a platform to become a positive representation of black women.
Further, the Canadian black host has also helped many start their mornings on a positive note and has helped viewers navigate tricky commutes for years.
After she got fired, it was her Instagram post that confirmed the rumors.
And her audience from the show was immensely heartbroken at the news. She mentioned rather amusingly, referring to her audience from Breakfast Television,
“Being a positive representation for Black women & girls on this platform has been one of my greatest honors. I cherished bringing a fresh perspective to the conversation and making you smile—even if you were just tuning in to see what I was wearing! 🤣 You know who you are! If I could reach YOU, I knew I could do anything!”

She added,
“From traffic updates to co-hosting and live eye segments, to juggling multiple roles while pursuing new challenges like going back to school, becoming an automotive service tech, and starting @sheautoknow, getting married to the love of my life and taking you all along with me—it’s been a thrilling ride that I’ve embraced every step of the way. Although I wish I had the chance to say a proper goodbye on air, I am deeply grateful for the family I’ve found in both my colleagues and all of you.”

Stephanie made sure to confirm to her followers and fans that her journey with them does not end with the show and that she will continue it as long as she can.
Though assuring her viewers that how she would even help them (female viewers) with road navigation and help with their vehicles through She Auto Know, fans raised their concerns against the show.
A commenter wrote,
“What are they doing at BT? Used to love watching. Unfortunately not so much anymore. You were a ray of sunshine. BT’s loss.”

Stephanie Henry Is Working On Her Company And Focusing On Herself
After leaving the show, Henry has been focusing on herself. In 2022, she started a company called She Auto Know.
Though she had been working on it since she was involved with Breakfast Television, she has only recently been able to focus fully on her own company.
This is rather refreshing for her viewers, who are both happy and relieved that they will still get to see much of their favorite host even after she is no longer associated with the show.
In addition to this, Henry has been seen advocating against bullying, as she admits to being the victim of the issue since she was in school.

One commented,
“I just adore her and how open and down to earth she is. It’s great to have these conversations!”

“I’ve been figuring out a new routine and have been finding joy in the little things, like getting my mornings back! Taking them nice and slow. Starting my day off right.

No alarm (naturally waking up around 7:30am)
Picking up a book before picking up my phone
Making a high protein breakfast
Starting my day with movement (hot girl walks in the morning are A+)
Sincerely enjoying my own company
Working on my business, @sheautoknow
Setting goals and making promises to myself
Journaling
Practicing gratitude at the end of the day”
She further asked her audience,
“Have you been going through any major changes? How are you doin’?”

From all that Stephanie has been letting her fans know about her life, it can be concluded that though she is facing notable changes and challenges in the way of new routines, she is also getting through it as gracefully as possible.
