Thank you for sharing your personal experience of dealing with speaking on the phone; it is inspiring to me because it was a challenge in your life that you had to overcome. I am a graduate student in the field and being able to share your experience with a client who stutters demonstrates that over time it is possible to become desensitized to the thing that one may fear most; whether it is the fear of talking on the phone, raising a hand in class, or asking someone out on a date. I think your advice of just doing it is good encouragement for anyone and I agree that anything, if done enough times, will get easier.
