Prioritizing My Life: The Story of Michaela Misskee Maia

Today's featured guest is Michaela Misskee Maia. Michaela is German-Brazilian and is currently working as a Marketing Manager at a Software Company in Florida, where she lives with her husband. Growing up, Michaela and her family lived in places like Mexico City, Sao Paulo, Hong Kong and Frankfurt. Even though she has been to speech therapists around the world, she would never see any real improvement in her speech. However, after having learned the Del Ferro Method to overcome stuttering, she finally started seeing results and has decided to open up about her journey of speech on Social Media and her YouTube Channel "Speaking Michaela". She hopes that by sharing her positive experience with the Del Ferro technique, people see that it's not impossible to overcome stuttering. I believe that there is healing in sharing and I would like to Thank Michaela for sharing her story with us.
