Yes, it’s a difficult program. It requires an increasing amount of courage and commitment! Especially the first few months and sets of contacts. But I have been seeing the results. Not only in my speech but the overall way I’ve been carrying myself. For example, I’ve been walking with more confidence, finding my style more when it comes to fashion. I’ve been proactively asking friends to get coffee. Telling more jokes, being more direct, etc. Thanks for the comment, I appreciate it! Are you still doing deliberate disfluencies and contacts these days? I’ve been doing the program for a little over a year and not quite sure when it will be time to stop doing deliberate disfluencies. I guess when I get to the top of my list of feared situations🙂.
