The big question! I thought about this so many times, it’s ridiculous. Part of me sees the glory: I’d be an actress! A comedian! The most interesting person at the party! But then I truly think what I really missed on is being a teacher, maybe language, maybe linguistics. I loved teaching Italian to adults 1:1 when I had the chance and I could mask my stutter, but a whole class seemed and still seems an impossible dream. So I still hide in a job I don’t care for at all.
