Thank you for sharing your story. I really enjoyed reading it! I’m so glad you followed your dream and became a speech pathologist! I’m currently a graduate student working on my masters in Speech Language Pathology, and I’m really happy with my career selection. In your story, you mentioned you were an extreme covert PWS during your Rehab Tech position at SSM Rehab. Did you use any special techniques to not stutter overtly? I think it's interesting that some people who stutter never demonstrate overt features of stuttering. Did you ever show overt features of stuttering when you were an extreme covert PWS? If so, were they mostly repetitions, prolongations, or blocks?
