Building a supportive space for people who stammer — looking for pioneers on a digital tool as well

Hey everyone,

I’m 22, half Irish and half Italian, and I’ve lived in Ireland now for the past four years. I am an individual who stutters, and ordering food, making phone calls, or even introducing myself sometimes feels like a battle.

I’ve been doing research on stammering and digital tools particularly AI and speech therapy alongside UCC (in Cork) and Enterprise Ireland, and something that stood out to me is how powerful community can be. When we share stories, struggles, and little victories, the journey feels lighter. In addition to this I am looking for some pioneers of a new exciting digital tool I am building backed by research, and an opportunity to cultivate your confidence and not let your dreams be cut short because of your stammer.

That’s why I’ve created a Discord community — a supportive space for people who stammer. Not just to practice, but also to: • Encourage each other in daily life challenges and display the tool that I am working on with regular feedback loops and updates • Talk about confidence and self-growth • Explore what it means to be entrepreneurs, creators, and leaders even with a stammer

I’d love to invite some pioneers to join early, help shape the vibe, and grow this into a genuine support group. At the current moment I want this to be a Cork based group so we can organise coffee meet ups and other potential events around the country !

If you’ve ever wished for a calm space where you can connect with people who truly get it, you’re more than welcome. Also if your just interested or know someone who may be affected feel free to join or simply text me !
