Explaining stuttering to friends
#42
I recently met up with my friend Heather on her business trip to Toronto. She was taking a work-related course and ended up learning a lot more than her curriculum. Heather blogged about her friends’ curiosity about stuttering “after seeing a series of uncomfortable restaurant staff, two icebreaker self introductions and a flat out rude guest speaker they decided there might be more to things than needing a few extra seconds to talk”.
Heather writes how she explained to her friends how she uses the Ti-Ger Analogy to let go of anger and embarrassment so that she can enjoy herself despite these embarrassing and awkward moments. I highly recommend this read!
