Description

Joining me on the show for this episode was co-founder of Stop Holding Back and good friend of mine CJ (Chris Jackson). CJ came on to share  his story of how his stutter had an impact on him growing up and throughout his life. We talk about the hardships about stuttering but also how it will always be worth it if you're willing to commit and be dedicated to working on your speech. CJ has got a fascinating story, from pursuing the ambition to become a professional basketball player, to setting up his own business, and of course what led him to set up Stop Holding Back; a charity that has had a great impact on so many people... myself included. Even though me and CJ have been mates for a while, this was a great chance to learn about about his story, as always I left the episode feeling inspired. Whether you have a stutter, are working on your speech, or neither, this is an episode you will be able to relate to as everyone has struggles and challenges to overcome, which is why it's important to stay humble and be understanding of everyone.
