Alex Koenig: Don’t sit on the doubt…. Get in the reps to get to the other side!

Alex Koenig’s approach to his stutter is to face it head on.  He has purposely taken on bold roles in his young career to get in the reps and get his stutter out of his head. From door to door sales to selling on a floor with many other sales reps in ear shot, he has learned that being a covert stutter is not an option if you’re ambitious.   Alex says, “being covert now is out of the question”.  Alex, who makes 100 sales phone calls a day, says that you just have to jump into the deep end and find your grit. The first phone call is the hardest.  In this podcast, Alex and Brian explore what they call “the other side”.  The other side is not where you are cured of your stutter. It’s the other side of avoidance.  It’s the place where you no longer look at life through a stuttering lens. Take a listen and see what the other side looks like to a young professional who stutters.Alex is graduate of  Ursinus College with a degree in Neuroscience.
