A SLP student commented on my paper and asked some questions about confidence. Her comments and insights are wonderful, and I actually need to process her feedback before thoughtfully replying. Part of her question to me is wonderful, so I thought I would post it here too and see what people think. ~~~~~~~~~~ Laurent writes "in being a more confident speaker, do you feel as though your "listeners" recognize you for that? Do you feel that a PWS who has come to terms with his/her disfluency portrays him/herself to society in the same manner as a PWS who is still dealing with internal struggles? Do you think that "inner piece of confidence" is readily recognized by society?" ~~~~~~~ This really resonated with me as a unique and interesting question. Thoughts? ~Pam
