Yes, 100% agreed. I had a speech easy about 15 years ago and it was great at first. Definitely helped me especially when I was first starting out in my career. Fast forward about 5 years and I was just about to give a speech at a conference. The damn thing died in my ear just as I started speaking!! I did just fine and it was then that I knew I didn't need a crutch to speak fluently. I needed to a. Be open and honest with people about my stutter and not try to hide it anymore and b. Accept myself and my stutter and just let it happen when it does happen. There is no cure for stuttering. But, you can learn to live with it and thrive in spite of it.
