Abstract

I will be sharing my story as a Person Who Stutters, coming from a childhood riddled with  self-doubt and sparse confidence to an adult commanding respect, stutter and all.My stutter was once a burden but it is now a blessing — a superpower, if you will — that I have used to accomplish so much, including life as a public speaker and as an author.
