Any tips on saying your own name?

[Stephanie Brennan]

Hi everyone!
So lately I’ve seen a lot of improvements in my everyday conversations. I do not stutter on about 95% of my words.

However, names, especially my own, and proper nouns, words that cannot be avoided, I still have a lot of trouble. When I say my affirmation, “I love to speak, I love to say my name, Stephanie,” I do NOT stutter. Also, when I say my name at practice sessions and at the SAM meeting, I do not stutter on my name. It’s really only when a stranger asks my name on the spot in public that I really mess up. Any tips on improving this?

Thank you so much!!

Which part of your name are you getting stuck on? My name is Adam so to say my name I use crutch 4 and it works everytime! I kind of developed a new feared letter which was “St” (mostly the ‘t’ that got me) so I drop the ‘t’ and it still sounds the same, I’m obviously still crafting it.

Hi Stephanie,

Adam is completely right, you need to use Crutch 1/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10/11/12/13 (I basically just listed all of the crutches lol). The key is to master them. So, practice, practice, practice until they become second nature. Have you been watching our coaching videos? We have over 1000 videos in our coaching library. Also, are you able to attend the SAM meeting which is held every Saturday?
