Tell you a secret. Most fluent speakers are terrible communicators. Terrible. I had a breakthrough when I realized being a clear communicator and being fluent aren’t mutually exclusive. I am a stutter...

I've been thinking about it this way too and it's totally changed my perspective. For example I'm very skilled at drawing and find it a breeze to draw people anatomically correctly – I'm "fluent" in i...
