In One Ear & Have No Other

With the snow coming down here in Indiana, forget about Snowmaggedeon, we're talking about EARmaggedon.  The worst pain I have ever felt in my ears came from.... (come on press play)

Have you seen Audible on Netflix?  It's about a deaf football team.  Check it out if you're a sports junky.  Also, how do you handle family making fun of your disability??

Business And Discovery - don't feel bad after hearing this episode!  What are your thoughts on a business identifying as "deaf owned"?  How did you discover your hearing loss?  Do you have a good memory where someone went out of there way to make you feel included.  I do.  It all started at summer camp... ALSO shirts are in!  If you watch the episode on FB I am wearing it and they are $25

Fresh off of an interview I recorded this to see what you would do!  I just had an interview where it was 2 people talking to (1 on each side).  So, it had it's challenges.  Should I tell them about my hearing during the conversation, on my resume, or wait until I'm hired?  Tricky...

What do you do for fun that helps you cope with your hearing loss??  Play video games with an online community - part of a reading club where you talk about the latest book with friends - make YouTube videos of you cooking?  Whatever it is I want to know about it!  Find us on social media @hearinghalf and share with us.  Maybe you are involved with something that other people would like to join.  I am thinking about taking improv classes...

Who knew I had something in common with Halle Berry?!  Her and many other notable people happen to be deaf out of one ear.  Listen to see if your favorite athlete or actor made the cut... & get a new shirt for $25

Parents don't be afraid to embrace your kids differences!  If someone ask about their hearing loss use that moment to teach a stranger.  Your response will dictate how they handle that encounter themselves later in life.

- Reading recommendation for kids

- Selling shirts!

With Christmas just going by thought it would be cool to see what gifts are available for people deaf out of one ear... there are some pretty cool gadgets! If you hate sleeping through your alarm clock or not being able to hear the TV then give this episode a listen.

2. Memory

3. Attention To Detail

What do I wish I had known as a kid?  Or what would I have done differently?  Through my rambling maybe we can find out.
