Can’t wait for this webinar! We are going to have a great conversation! Hope you guys will register!

Curious about how working remotely impacts those who stutter? During COVID, many of us shifted to remote work, and for some, it’s been a game-changer in terms of productivity and well-being. But does this flexibility help or hurt when you’re navigating the unique challenges of stuttering?

Join Pamela Mertz, Anabel Augustin, and Carl Coffey for an insightful discussion. We’ll dive into what it’s really like working from home—dealing with potential isolation, challenges with video meetings, and the freedom to structure your day your way.
