Stuttering can definitely be overcome. Many people (PWSs) have overcome it. It is true that semantically, it's beneficial to avoid creating a "war" with a "condition." What you resist persists..and as long as you "fight" it, it has to EXIST as the "enemy" to fight back. Love what stuttering is showing you (it is a challenge) and focus on FLUENCY not on stuttering. The word "overcoming" has a different meaning to me--but if it suggests doing battle to you, then-- of course, avoid it!
