Listen Later

Gael Hannan sits down with Christy Vogel, the inspiring founder of Sounding Joy. Christy shares her deeply personal journey with hereditary hearing loss, recounting the struggles she faced growing up without hearing aids and how those challenges ultimately fueled her mission to help others.

Through her nonprofit, Sounding Joy, Christy is dedicated to providing hearing aids to children from low-income families, ensuring they have access to the life-changing technology she herself missed out on for so many years.
The conversation delves into the profound impact of untreated hearing loss on children's lives, including the increased risks of addiction and suicide, and highlights how Sounding Joy is working to make hearing care accessible to those in need.
