What do we say to the God of Stuttering? NOT TODAY I had another presentation at work today, this one was remote but I was on camera and it was recorded. I had a complete meltdown yesterday from my anxiety leading up to the presentation so I did not wake up today in the best mental state. But I pressed on knowing that if I stutter, I can handle it. This is a client I've been working with for a year and they know I stutter and it hasn't caused much of a problem. I did stutter a number of times throughout the presentation but I stayed calm and used my techniques to unclench my jaw and relax my vocal cords so I could get through it. I wasn't perfect and that's ok! I'm going to call this one a win 😎
