Feel like your stutter dominates every waking second of your life?
You’re not alone. An estimated 70 million adults world-wide have a stutter. Many believe their lives will be significantly limited by the way they speak, but it doesn’t have to be that way . Aged 17, Paul stopped trying to ‘fix’ his stutter, and over a long and succesful career has designed a unique, five-step road map to help him become so much more than his stutter : it can help you do the same.
This is a powerful and practical book that focuses on what you love to do and guides you to create the life you really want and deserve.
Paul Gaskin is a senior global HR leader and stutterer. At 17 he made a life-changing decision not to be defined by his stutter. He stopped all treatments designed to ‘fix’ him and began his own journey to personal and professional success.
