100% this - I was lucky to grow up with a dad who stutters and there was a kid in my grade from 3-12th grade who stuttered worse than me and never did speech therapy. He was super confident, played on the basketball team, never ever let it slow him down. Took me a while to figure it out and get my subconscious on board, but it's so right people don't care until you make them feel like they should. Some days I'm super fluent. Some days I'm not. Never going to let it stop me from making a call or speaking up to someone. 🫡
