WE had another good Zoom meeting this past Tuesday with 6 of us attending: Hannah, Natalie, Rick, Jeff, Andy, and myself. I had previously asked those attending to share memories and take-aways from the sessions they attended. Jeff, Hannah, and Rick all had an amazing time and finally appreciated an "in person" conference. As each reported on special moments a theme of many sessions seemed to be persistence and resilience. The two keynote speakers were inspiring. Check out Marc Winski TikTok videos! Hannah participated in a panel sharing the journey of "older adults" who stutter but granted she was one of the younger ones. The "open mic" sessions often contained emotional elements. It was very inspiring to see all the young kids and teens moving through the crowds starting up conversations for their scavenger hunt items. It was great to hear about it all.
