IDK that I could gather 1,000 people who would want to hear anything I have to say ;) But, yes. I've presented to an executive board of \~40 people. Taught rooms of 30 people. Was the announcer at a charity hockey game. I imagine we had several hundred in attendance at that game. I went back to school a short while after getting fluent. I took a communication class where we spoke in front of the class nearly every week. I succeeded in an environment that I had avoided throughout my youth. I owned that classroom. I remember what it was like before I got fluent. Specific instances where I refused to speak at small family gatherings. Not being able to order food at a restaurant. Probably the worst was when I was about 13. I went to pick up my new prescription glasses. I could not get my name out. My block was so bad that they thought I was not right, and they escorted me out of their office. It was absolutely crushing. That every-present anticipation of stuttering. But imagine being able to leave all of that behind you. To set down that weight. To succeed again and again where I had previously failed. I no longer relive those terrible moments. I've had my successes to displace those moments.
