I’ve started following this page just two weeks ago to try get an insight into others success/downfalls with their own speech. My stutter has deteriorated a little last year or two but I’m far more consciously aware of it and trying to practice daily before I start my day (key to smooth speech imo) - I’ve been President if clubs at my university which involved daily public speaking at tutorials. I’ve always been promoted to positions of leadership at my part-time work whilst studying at uni. - Completing into my final year of Law in Australia and then I’m going to study the United Kingdom law in the aspiration to be one of the best lawyers ever to come from Australian soil. - I’m making my TV debut next year and I WILL go on a shitty reality TV show and bring stuttering proudly to the forefront of public viewing one day. I once read a quote that, let me paraphrase, went something like “Everyone walks with a pebble in their shoe that nobody can see” and I thought that couldn’t better represent my stutter. Everyone has their own challenges and my speech will likely be the biggest pebble in my shoe. Some days I think my stutter is actually the best thing to ever happen to me, an inherent part of me that I will never be perfect. I can ALWAYS be better, every single morning I have the choice to practice my techniques before I start my day. I beg the question to everyone reading - how often do you practice your speech therapy techniques? How bad do you REALLY want it? My stutter has assisted in creating my mindset to continuous personal and professional development, if I get 1% better every single day I will become a phenomenal human. Love the process, love the journey.
