Based in the United States, Larry Stein struggled with stuttering for 50 years, compromising his career and suffering debilitating depressions. In an effort to save the business of his dreams, he launched a drive to improve his speech that far exceeded his expectations. Over the next two years, he relearned to speak, retrained his brain and worked through speaking situations that once paralyzed him. Today, he runs his dream business, is a professional speaker and mentors people who stutter on nearly every continent of the world at no charge. Active in the stuttering community worldwide, he writes and posts videos on his blog SteinOnStuttering.com as well as his YouTube, Facebook and Instagram channels of the same name. Larry Stein is also on LinkedIn.
