When Acceptance Isn't Enough (Episode 160)
Download | Duration: 01:52:37
Kristel Kubart joins Peter Reitzes and Eric Jackson to discuss comments by Elliot, when acceptance of stuttering isn't enough, unwanted pity, the difference between allowing speech to happen and using speech tools, making changes with our stuttering, finding a guide to help face stuttering, listener emails and much more. We also discuss the article Below the Surface: Treating the Emotional Aspects of Stuttering by Woody Starkweather. And of course, Peter and Eric argue about overt and covert stuttering and issues related pseudoscience.











More Kristel, less dude-domination. Sounds like testosterone overdose in that room.
Mark, I agree with you. Thanks for writing. -Peter
This was a very intense episode. It was very interesting hearing about the differences between overt and convert stuttering. I am very new to the "stuttering community," so I love hearing you guys talk about stuttering in such depth.
Sarah,
Thank you so much for writing and for listening. I think you meant covert stuttering, not convert stuttering. Episode 160 was an intense episode. I think if you check out episode 158, episode 160 may seem like an extension of that conversation. Take care and thanks again for writing. -Peter
Peter,
Yes, I meant covert stuttering. I did listen to episode 158 and again enjoyed how you all are able to have down right honest conversations about stuttering. It's really awesome!
Thanks Sarah!
