Why not get together with your local stuttering community and go out to eat, picnic, sing karaoke, go out dancing, or whatever would be fun. People without disabilities or who don’t stutter can’t even imagine us getting together and partying. Whenever I am around people who share my experiences I have hella fun. You know what? People don’t equate stuttering or disability with fun! I know, I don’t get it either.

I am just one individual, so how will I make an impact in raising awareness in my personal and professional lives, not to mention the world? I have some ideas that I wanted to share with you. Sometimes I get a little stuck on how I want to raise awareness. We just aren’t our speech, but I personally don’t want people to overlook my experiences as a Stutterer because those experiences are an important part of what has created me.
In everything I do, I hope to go beyond stuttering awareness to place where we can celebrate our community and have a more inclusive world where we are able to be more integrated in our identities as people who stutter and however else we identify (culture, talents, hobbies, etc…). As a person who stutters, who loves her community, I make a special point to share my experience and educate people about stuttering and stuttering etiquette. As a stand up comedian and Disability educator, I aim to make the world more aware of aspects of the disability experience.
