We normalize glasses πŸ‘“ and hearing aids πŸ‘‚β€¦ so why not stuttering? πŸ—£οΈ grew up with a stutter and used to feel like it made me β€œless.” Over time, I’ve learned to manage it better and see it differently β€” not as a flaw, but as a part of being human. It always strikes me how society completely normalizes glasses or hearing aids, but stuttering still carries stigma. I put together a short video about this perspective β€” why stuttering isn’t broken, it’s human β€” and how important education is. Would love your thoughts on whether awareness is improving. πŸ‘‰ https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8BpqNfp/
