I have job that requires me to communicate a lot and so it was very stressful in the beginning. My stutter made me think less of myself and of the work I did. So for me it was acceptance of the fact that stuttering is a part of me and that it is okay to stutter and most importantly to take my time when I stutter. And with that came confidence. I still stutter (not as much as I used to do) but I'm okay with it.
