How to Talk to Humans: what stuttering can teach you about connecting with people
summary
A person who stutters explains concrete tactics that actually work: early onset at around three years, speech therapy at 8–9 and again at 27, and deliberate practice of listening more than talking. Techniques include swapping risky words, asking targeted questions until someone lights up, and openly sharing vulnerability to trigger reciprocal disclosure. Applied to marketing, the tool is to record both what clients say and how they say it, then mirror that voice rather than tout expertise.
