Hearing Loss LIVE! in Five: Being a Hard of Hearing Wallflower Artwork

Hearing Loss LIVE! Podcast

Adapting to hearing loss can be overwhelming no matter how you got here--suddenly or progressively. Hearing Loss LIVE! wants to help you take control of your hearing loss. Because we know that when you do, you will live more fully with fewer limits. We can help improve your communication obstacles in your day to day life. We at Hearing Loss LIVE! have about 100 years of experience between us in hearing loss. We have been at the very bottom of hearing loss, the very top and everything in between. Our past experience is based on mentoring others through other hearing loss organizations. Julia helped people with access to CART/live captioning, Chelle as a Hard of Hearing Assistant and later as Specialist for Utah for a number of years and Michele offering peer support and presenting to organizations and agencies on navigating the world with a hearing loss. For those with hearing loss and their families: We share knowledge, strategies and technology tips to smooth out the journey. We have 1 on 1 peer mentoring or group sessions for the Hard of Hearing and/or family and friends. Hearing loss is a communication disorder and small adjustments to communication habits for both sides can make a difference. Businesses, agencies and organizations: One in five people have a hearing loss, you’re seeing them everyday. How well are you serving them? Are you clear on the communication needs for the Hard of Hearing or do you confuse them with that of the Deaf Community? We offer consultation to clear up misconceptions and myths.

Hearing Loss LIVE! in Five: Being a Hard of Hearing Wallflower

October 21, 2024 • Hearing Loss LIVE!

What's a Hard of Hearing wallflower? Someone who goes to social gatherings and finds a quiet corner. Or someone who refuses to go because they will be miserable. It might be you, who smiles and nods when they don't understand something....which feels toxic inside by the way.
