Stuttering Spotlight- Arthur Young
Hello Everyone!!
For this week’s Stuttering Spotlight, I would like to introduce Arthur Young! Arthur is a proud stutterer from England, advocate, father, and genuinely positive person.
This week’s blog post will be a bit different, as Arthur has requested to record his thoughts as a video. Arthur is all about confidence and acceptance. He is an admin of a Facebook Page called From Stuttering to Confidence, and every single post, video, or comment from Arthur radiates confidence, empowerment, and genuine support. Arthur places a huge emphasis on the power of social media and how a platform can truly bring people together and help people all over the world!
If you’d like to learn more about Arthur’s story, you can check out this article that outlines his experiences.
Did anyone else get inspired to spread some positivity today?!
“If we love ourselves, we give the world back some happiness and kindness”
My takeaways on Arthur’s policy on living with a stammer:
Accept yourself and think positively about yourself!
Focus on all of your good traits and remind yourself that you bring happiness to others.
Focus on your mental health! (This is a big one)
Self-love and self-acceptance are difficult and look different for everyone, we’d love to hear some ways you practice self-love and acceptance!
