A TIKTOK star’s confidence has grown thanks to her speaking challenge videos. Jessie Davies, 29, from South Wales could not speak until she was about four years old due to a delay in her speech development and this progressed into a stammer. In November last year, Jessie started sharing videos about her stammer on TikTok including ‘speaking challenge’ videos where she would put herself in situations that she found difficult such as drive-thrus and talking on the phone. She has now garnered over three million followers on TikTok and is raising awareness about speech impediments. Jessie told Truly: “I just feel I now want to be the woman I needed as a little girl.” Today, Jessie is doing a speaking challenge in her local town carrying a sign that reads ‘I have a stammer, let's talk.’ Jessie said: “Even though it is only a few words on a piece of card, I feel it is really powerful and hopefully we can spread awareness today.”
