The Course
Do you feel like the biggest challenge isn’t your speech… but the fear, anxiety, and shame that live inside you?
If you stutter, you know the struggle goes beyond words. It’s the heavy weight of judgment—both from others and, hardest of all, from yourself.
You’re not alone.
Brave Words is a gentle, practical course created by a doctor who stutters, designed to help you manage the mental and emotional side of stuttering. It’s not about fluency — it’s about courage, confidence, and self-compassion.
