Episode #189: You’re making a phone call and growing more anxious about stuttering with each ring. What do you do? Learn telephone survival tips and master other speaking situations in dating, job interviews, small talk, body language, and stuttering your name as Christine Dits, community manager of the Stutter Social app, shares her methods for dealing with stuttering and building resilience.
We also talk a bit about introvert and extroverts who stutter and where they get their energy in social situations.
Christine stuttered since she was 6 years old and most recently became a licensed SLP (CCC-SLP to be exact). She is a returning Stuttering is Cool guest and frequent co-host of the Stuttering is Cool videos.
This is the first in a series where I’ll be asking Stutter Social hosts to share the methods they use to survive stuttering and build resilience. I believe resilience is the key to living the life you want to live in spite of your speech. After all, life is too short to worry about perfection! Plus, nobody is perfect.
