If you are not doing anything to fix it, then you likely are not thinking about it as much as the person consumed by thoughts and actions related to their stutter. Each approach has its pros and cons...

I believe James Earl Jones still stutters. He rarely does media, interviews, talk shows etc. Check out his speech at the AFI awards. You can see and hear some blocks and hesitations. https://youtu.be/...
