Everyone's preferences are different, but disclosing my stutter is one of the absolute best things I've ever done for myself. I've always worried that people spend more time focusing on how I speak ra...

Lmao you don't have to. But always remember they're people out there that have worse things than what we have. We always thought that the older we get the mature we will get, but that wasn't what it t...

Here's what I do. When I go for an interview, I tell the hiring manager that I have a speech impediment when the manager greet him or herself. When you don't tell them, then they'll think differently....

I think this advice applies to a lot of social situations. I've found that if I just stop and say "Sorry, I have a stutter" when I'm having trouble with a word, I'm much more relaxed because, like you...

The best thing you can do is acknowledge it. That takes a lot of the nervousness away, because you're no longer trying to sidestep around the issue, and it makes the interviewer more comfortable as we...
