Alexander Bustos is an intern with the Downtown Davis Business Association and a full-time UC Davis student beginning in his junior year.
He has lived much of his life with a stutter, and joins us in this episode of Listening Lyrics to talk about what that experience has been like — the challenges, the reactions from others, the confidence it takes, and the lessons he has learned along the way.
This is really a conversation about much more than speech. It’s about being heard, being understood, and living life on your own terms. Since this show is Listening Lyrics, we know that music often says things we sometimes struggle to put into words, so a few songs will be played as well (see playlist below).
