Growing Stronger in Acceptance and Advocacy
Manage episode 407288605 series 3562094
Join me in a conversation with Sara Robinson, M.A., CCC-SLP as she opens up about growing stronger in her acceptance and advocacy as a hard of hearing individual. In this episode, Sara opens up to our audience about growing up with a slow progression of hearing loss, her up and down struggles with hearing aids, and becoming more and more comfortable with being hard of hearing and advocating. Sara’s vulnerability is courage for others who are trying to “be fine” on the outside while furiously paddling underneath the surface to keep up with communication challenges.
