Congrats! It's a scary leap of faith, but it was one of the best decisions I ever made. I will say that, as I went to a speech therapist for the first time at 30, I wasn't expecting to be "cured." An...

I wish I could give you better advice than "Stop caring what other people think", but that's really the best advice I can give a fellow stutterer. I've stuttered since I could talk. I'm in my late 20...

I like it all until "it's just something I do and can't help it." Darren Sproles, who stutters, was told he was just too short for the NFL. After 12 years he is still balling. I hope you find parts...
