Today's featured guest is Danny Miguel.  Danny is 34 years old and lives in Connecticut.  He states, “I started stuttering surprisingly at 18 which is kind of odd since most stutterers develop stuttering during their adolescent years. I became a situational stutterer, often long pauses and struggled with it for 15 years until I found a program and book late last year. After 2-3 months of diligently immersing myself in the author's methods, I overcame my stutter which brings me here to discuss a little bit more about the book and program”.  When asked if speech therapy helped during that time period, he stated, “I only attended speech therapy in 2019 (February-August) Never found it to be helpful, but the book and program helped me a lot in just a month or two. I started earlier this year with the book and found success after 2-3 months where I could no longer be a detectable stutterer. Hear this journey of a PWS (Person Who Stutters) become a PWSS (Person Who Stopped Stuttering) through the use of a book and program that's changing lives throughout the world”.  I believe that there is healing in sharing, and I want to thank Danny for sharing his story with me today.

Today’s featured guest is Sherrikka Myers. Every 1 Voice Matters is a nonprofit designed to help kids break down communicative and social barriers such as stuttering, self-esteem, self-confidence and bullying to improve their quality of life. Founder, Sherrikka Myers, grew up stuttering in a single-family household with limited resources. She used the only resource available to her to control her stuttering, which was a book. Reading out loud, instead of quietly to herself, is what helped her overcome stuttering and changed the trajectory of her life. After finding out her first grandchild Herbie stuttered, too, she decided to go back to school and start her nonprofit organization to help other kids in her community and around the world. I believe that there is healing in sharing and I would like to Thank Sherrikka Myers for sharing her story with us.

Today’s world is changing due to the Covid-19 virus.  What we enjoyed in the past has now gone away; restaurants are closed, concerts cancelled, conferences cancelled, festivals cancelled, grocery store shelves are almost bare, and we must maintain social distancing to combat this virus and lower the infection rates.  If you are a PWS (person who stutters), the occasional excursions for take-out have now become the only way to obtain take-out food.  The occasional cell phone and laptop use is now the only way we communicate since businesses are closed and we conduct meetings via Skype or Zoom.  Our living rooms, kitchens, bedrooms and closets have become our new office space.  As a person who stutters, I am now pushed out of my comfort zone more than ever and I’m adapting to this new normal.  Thank you Thomas Kenyon from Keeping It Reel podcast for that AMAZING voice over intro.
