Proud Stutter Teen Who Stutters Helps Others Find Their Voice
Navigating the ups and downs of being a teenager is hard enough. Adding living with a stutter to the already existing anxieties and insecurities we go through can make things even more difficult.
Priya is a 17-year old living in Sydney, Australia. She is filling a much needed gap in the stuttering community: creating and sharing content around stuttering for her fellow teenagers who stutter from all over the world. We talk about her new podcast, Stutter Conversations, and how she got to being so open about her stutter at an early age.
Kyle Smeallie, Maya's fiancée, is our co-host. He’s a legislative aide for a local elected official in San Francisco, working on policies related to affordable housing, tenants rights, and supporting small businesses.
