So proud of myself! So, guys!!! Today I hosted a small English language meet-up (15 people)! I gave a speech in front of everyone in English (it's my second language), coordinated everything, interacted with every single person there!!! I stuttered soooooooo many times but somehow I didn't pay attention to it and didn't let it get to me! I've been stuttering for the last 15 to 17 years and this was a really big achievement for me! And this group has been such a big inspiration for me to speak and say yes to these kind of opportunities. 💜 And probably sorry for the text, writing from mobile.
