25 Stuttering In Children: Why You Shouldn't Wait And See (Christian Mom's Guide) Speaking Life Into Motherhood ~ Routines, Time Management, Holistic Health, Self Care, Autism, ADHD, Neurodiversity, Special Needs, Disabilities podcast

Are you wondering if your child's speech disfluencies are normal or something to be concerned about?

Do you feel like your doctor keeps telling you to "wait and see" while your mama heart is telling you to seek help now?

Are you struggling to know how to support your older child who continues to stutter despite receiving speech therapy?

In this encouraging episode, I sit down with Briann Morbitzer (Ms. Bri), a speech-language pathologist who specializes in stuttering therapy for all ages. As a mama of four little ones under four and owner of Superior Speech Therapy in St. Paul, Minnesota, Briann brings both professional expertise and heart-centered wisdom to our conversation about supporting children who stutter.

We dive deep into early warning signs, when to seek help (spoiler: don't wait!), and holistic approaches that support the whole child - including sensory regulation, sleep, and even the spiritual aspects of being present with our children in their difficult moments.
