Five of us met over zoom. We watched a PSA (public service announcement) about stuttering and that sparked good conversation. We liked the JUST LISTEN message, but we also talked about, among other things, how the PSA focused more on mild stuttering and didn’t showcase the full stuttering spectrum. That led us to talk about how much or how little we actively try to manage our stutter.
Watch the PSA below…
We then talked about how often we disclose our stutter with others and how we do it when we tell people we stutter.
From there, we watched clips from Survivor showing two different disclosure approaches. Mitch is a castaway on the show and he disclosed his stutter to everyone. Eva is on the autism spectrum and she went a different route to disclosing her life challenge. This smart really good conversation.
