039 The invisible challenges of stuttering with Ruban Pillai


Listen Later

Today on the show I'm in conversation with Ruban Pillai about his TEDxFolkestone talk, the invisible challenges of stuttering.

By day Ruban works in the banking sector in risk, and in his spare time he is a director of a charity that helps other people experiencing a speech impediment in the work place. It formed in 2018 as a WhatsApp group which quickly grew to over 100 people around the world and became a community meetup group - a safe space for people to talk about the challenges they face.

In our conversation we talk more about the invisible challenges, as well as how we can best support someone we know or meet who has a speech impediment. In his excellent short (3 min) talk, he addresses the 99% of us that don’t live with this challenge and you can watch it here: https://youtu.be/Rt0VLUqVv2w
