Can anyone help me on this topic?

Can anyone help me on this topic? I'm 17M and a mild stutterer. My stutter like many varies from situation to situation. When I'm talking with my parents or friends its pretty less but when I talk to any stranger it's spikes up. Although I'm trying to reduce this by talking more in public and have noticed a subtle difference. I have recently came across Ted talk on YouTube of Paul Gaskin and Kevin Pudjiadi where both of them stress on the point of embracing your stutter and learning to coexist with it. I'm not able to completely understand their notion and implement it in my life. I've passed school and will be entering the realm of college in a few months. So it would be very helpful if someone could help me explain on how to do this.
