Description
Keegan Murphy thought he outgrew his childhood stutter, until a traumatic event triggered its return. Not only does Keegan share his experience with his stuttering popping back up unexpectedly, but he also talks about the challenges and frustrations of stuttering in corporate America and how seeking professional help transformed his view on his stutter and helped get him out of his deep depression. Keegan is now doing stuttering advocacy within his workplace by creating an employee resource group for employees who identify as neurodiverse and trying to expand his insurance plan to include speech therapy.
