Hannah, thank you so much for sharing your story. It was great reading how you accomplished your goals and overcame so many obstacles in your life. I am a first year graduate student in speech-language pathology and your story helped me realize how much goes on inside a person who stutters. All the 'emotional baggage' that you have carried throughout your life says so much about those deep struggles. I wanted to ask you what you think are the most effective ways to reach and inform people who covert stutter? Also, when looking back, do you think there needed to be someone educating your family when you were first evaluated for speech and language so they could understand the importance of therapy for you? Thanks again for sharing your story. Amanda
