I loved your article! It gave several great pointers on how to overcome those things about ourselves that we would like to change, but feel helpless in doing so. This includes not only stuttering, but a myriad of other things too, such as fear of speaking in public, shyness, etc. I had never heard of using visualization to help improve fluency and thought that this was a great idea. In the “About the presenter” segment, it said you were a former police officer. My father is also a former officer and I know that there is a lot of public contact and communication, (sometimes in very stressful situations), in this profession. Did your disfluency impact your duties? If so, can you explain? Thank you!
