Episode 61: My Stammer Is My Superpower Recorded at The New Victoria Theatre Woking
In this inspiring audio, 26-year-old William Laven shares his journey of turning what many might see as a challenge—his stammer—into his greatest strength. From a childhood filled with limiting expectations to breaking barriers in his career at a top advertising agency, William’s story is one of resilience, determination, and empowerment.
By embracing his stammer, William has made it his superpower, and now he’s on a mission to change perceptions of stammering. Through public speaking, launching a podcast with over 200,000 streams, and defying the odds, he shows that neurodiversity isn’t something to hide, but to celebrate.
Join us as we mark International Stammering Awareness Day and watch William’s moving speech, filmed in an empty auditorium at the New Victoria Theatre, Woking, symbolising the power of a stammer and the impact of sharing our stories.
