Thanks for the tips! Yeah talking slow definitely helps a lot, though sometimes I feel like I use speaking fast as a mechanism to blend a word that I know I’m gonna stutter on into another. That’s so funny regarding the thigh tap, I do the same thing except it’s scratching my head or taking my glasses off to “clean them” lol, definitely helps. I’m usually good with confidence until I stutter, but need to work on just looking past those
