Finally found my people Hey fellow stutterers! I don’t know why it took me so long to join this group. We are all part of an exclusive “club” that we didn’t choose to belong to...but this is something that we all have to live (and hopefully thrive!) with. I rarely meet anyone who stutters, so this group is a great outlet to connect with others who can relate to what I’m dealing with. A little bit about me, I’m a 36 year old dude who works in finance. I have a great career and have tried to not let my stutter hold me back (easier said than done, I know). It’s not always easy but I have made a concerted effort to push through, and not allow this issue to hinder my success in life. It is not easy sometimes, but failure and giving up is not an option (for me at least). I hope and pray that all of you can find the courage to persevere and find your voice. I’m always here to help, especially people who are just getting into the workforce and are interviewing, I know it’s scary. Even now, when I am the one conducting the interviews, I still feel empathy toward the potential new hire...it’s a daunting experience even for non-stutterers. Anyway, I’m glad to be here and hopefully we can help each other out and be a support system for one another. Be safe out there!
