Can you forgive me?

Instead of wishing trite "Happy New Year" greetings, let's really tap into something deeper.

As we enter the Jewish New Year, I'm reflecting on how much of our lives focus on "taking."

✊ Taking a moment.
✊ Taking a break.
✊ Taking a breath.
✊ Taking a turn.

What if we flipped the script? What if we remembered that life is really for giving?

🤲 Give an extra moment.
🤲 Give someone a break.
🤲 Give some breathing room.
🤲 Give someone a chance.

It doesn't cost a penny. But it can change everything.

We come into the world with our fists shut tight. We leave the world with our hands wide open. And when we leave the world, we don't take "stuff" with us. In the end, what we really "have" is what we "gave."

Let's take less and give more.
And realize, life is for giving.

This time of year is about remembering to for-give.
Forgive others. Forgive yourself.

And then we can forget the wrongs - and remember to live life the right way.

🤔 So as we step into this new year:
What will you give? Who will you give to? Who will you forgive?

"I love you - and how you talk." 💕

Two years ago, Amy came for speech therapy. As a young adult, she was self-conscious about her stuttering and worried it made her unattractive. And worse yet, unlovable.

We worked together. She gained skills and confidence. As she blossomed, she talked more, gained confidence, expanded her social circles and even interviewed the local mayor!

Then we took a break.

When Amy started dating, she wanted more support. For some reason, I thought she should work with my amazing associate, Leya Rubin.

Plot twist: Leya didn't just help with speech therapy... she made a MATCH! 💍

Leya introduced Amy to the brother of someone she knew socially, and the rest is history. Ari fell head-over-heels for Amy - and her speech was never an issue.

Why? It turns out, Ari grew up with a mother who stutters. To him, the greatest woman in the world was a woman who stutters. So Amy was no less in his eyes. Perfectly imperfect.

The lesson? For all the years Amy worried how her speech would be a showstopper, the right person was out there and he was attracted to her - speech and all.

✨Mazal Tov to the happy couple! 🎉

Sometimes the imperfect "differences" we fear will cause us to be alone - become the very thing that make us perfect for the right person.

It always starts with a conversation about speech. What happens next is an open adventure.

✨Roee Zoaretz Ironman champion came to me for help with stuttering. As an ironman champion, he was unstoppable in races - but moving to the USA left him struggling to find his voice.

We worked together to harness his outstanding strength of mind and razor sharp determination from competition - to reclaim his voice!

Within weeks, Roee rediscovered his confidence. he landed professional positions and partnerships.

Now, watch Roee run!

✅ Successful professional positions and training partnerships

✅ Sponsorships including , , )

✅ Copenhagen marathon: 2hrs 58min

✅ Documentary filming his sub-8hr ironman

Working with high-performers like Roee pushes me to step-up my own game too. Stay tuned for my next challenge.

Until then, congrats Roee!!!

My brother taught me, "Motion is lotion."

When we're standing still, things stagnate.
When we're moving, things flow and good things happen.

Whatever your X is - stuttering, self-doubt, body image, imposter syndrome - it can feel like an impenetrable wall.

But here's what's wild about transcending it:

When you get through things, you tell yourself,
"Wait... I wasn't supposed to be here. But here I am."

You know that barrier you thought would break you?
It might just be the catapult that launches you to higher ground. 🚀

Sometimes the thing we're grappling with becomes the thing that elevates us.

Don't get stuck. Keep moving.
Motion is lotion.

Do you agree? 👇

Note to self: this is what happens when I let my daughter pick my shoe color.

On the one hand, a bit bright. Actually, VERY bright. Brighter than I'm comfortable with.

At the same time, fun. It's nice to be colorful sometimes. And it feels like shoes like this cannot stay in a closet. And you can't wear them just for walking.

I will allow these shoes to invite me to step up. And I know these shoes will support my next move.

Six months ago, this father thought his son wouldn't even speak at his bar mitzvah.

And then it was time...
His son delivered his own speech with confidence - in front of 100+ people 💪

It's not about us.
It's not about the protocol.

It's about the client.
It's about getting behind their goals - and guiding them to success!

Less about speech perfection.
More about communication impact.

Less automated.
More personalized.

People don't need more problems.
They don't need more things to think about.

They need someone to listen to them.
Someone who helps them get what they want.

♻️ Stories like this remind us why we do what we do.

At Schneider Speech, we help people talk more and fear less.

Let me tell you a secret: I challenge my clients to do hard things.
I also accept when they challenge me to do hard things.

This weekend, challenge accepted. I completed the hashtag .

Running from the bottom of the ski lift to the top. 1312ft (400m) of elevation.
That's like climbing from 34th Street straight up to the antenna of the Empire State Building.

Unlike a manmade skyscraper, the mountain has no stairs. Just unforgiving loose rocky dirt. And when you need a breather, you feel how much thinner the air is at 5000 ft (1500 meters) above sea level.

-

High performing clients push me to perform better.
To help them bring out their best, I need to push myself.

When I start working with clients, they need my expertise, guidance, support. As they achieve more success, the work becomes even more dynamic.

Their courage and strength rubs off on me - as it does for everyone around them. And like building human muscle, this flywheel of human growth gets tested, torn and rebuilt stronger through working together.

When a child's speech is blocked, parents get stuck too.
? Did I cause the problem?
? Am I doing enough to help?
? Am I doing too much?

When parents reach out to us, they often tell us all the unhelpful advice they heard - and how long they waited to find help.

So, if you're tired of hearing typical (unhelpful) advice - you're not alone.

Join us this Sunday for a special panel for parents of children ages 2-17.
→ Hear from professional experts with decades of experience helping thousands worldwide
→ Meet a remarkable father and successful entrepreneur with dyslexia, raising a son who stutters

Practical tips you'll learn:
⚡️ Why saying 'slow down' and 'take a deep breath' can do more harm than help
⚡️ The #1 thing to keep kids talking - learning how to listen through it
⚡️ How to create successful speaking opportunities for different ages

Sunday 10AM EST | Free on Zoom

What's the worst thing people say about stuttering?

🙅 "Just slow down."
🙅 "Take a deep breath."
🙅 "Think before you speak."
🙅 "Don't worry—they'll grow out of it."

Stuttering can be hard. Misinformation makes it worse!

Today, on National Stuttering Awareness Day , let's address some MYTHS—and get FACTS.

❌ MYTH: Stuttering is caused by parents or anxiety.
❌ MYTH: Just wait for stuttering to pass on its own.
❌ MYTH: Stuttering gets worse the more a child stutters.

✅ FACT: Research shows that professional help makes a significant difference, even for young children.
✅ FACT: Encourage children to "keep talking." Listen to WHAT your child says, not HOW they say it.
✅ FACT: Parents, you're not the cause, but you CAN be part of the solution by learning supportive skills!

Remember to consult a licensed SLP specializing in stuttering if:

☑️ You or your child is concerned about stuttering
☑️ Young child has been stuttering for more than 6 months
☑️ Child is 5 years or older with stuttering (even if recent)
