My work is highly reliable on good communication and as a stutterer I have good days and I have bad days. I make myself assertive and always ask at the end of what I say if it is understood or if they can repeat what they understood from me so there aren’t any misunderstandings. I always lived under the fear that I have to live with my stutter but in reality it’s people that have to live with my stutter. It’s their burden and not mine. If they don’t want to listen, it’s their loss. I got other things to do. That’s my approach that last few years.
