From hiding my stutter to being heard by 150,000 people — a conversation that changed my mindset Hey everyone, I sat down with **Sam Bagshaw**, a stuttering creator, to talk about what actually changes when you stop trying to fix your speech and just start speaking anyway. We talk honestly about confidence, shame, mental health, and what it takes to show up while still stuttering. I thought some of you might find it helpful or inspiring: Watch the interview here: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MlGMN5YKmzU](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MlGMN5YKmzU) Would love to hear your thoughts — what part resonates with you most?
