About this listen

Hearing loss doesn't come with an operating manual—until now. If you have hearing loss, you already know that the conventional approach to treatment is focused on hearing-aid technology. Without a handbook to help you figure out how to actually live with it, you've likely been getting by on information pieced together from various sources—and yet, communication often seems incomplete and unsatisfying.

What's missing from this hearing care model is the big picture—a real-life illustration of how hearing loss, its emotions, and its barriers affect every corner of your life. Now, hearing-health advocates, consultants, and speakers Shari Eberts and Gael Hannan offer a new skills-based approach to hearing loss that is centered not on hearing better, but on communicating better.

With honesty and humor, they share their own hearing loss journeys, and outline invaluable insights, strategies, and workarounds to help you engage with the world and be heard. You'll gain tips for navigating all areas impacted by hearing loss, including relationships, work, technology; strategies for adopting a new, empowering mindset towards your hearing loss; and communication behaviors that can make almost any listening situation manageable. Hearing loss is just one aspect of who you are. You may have hearing loss, but it doesn't have to have you.

Practical & Encouraging

I needed some insight on coping with hearing loss in our family. And this book was exactly what I was looking for. Well written & translates to audiobook well too.

Lots of good tips

The same tips were repeated too many times throughout the book. It was like watching the “Groundhog” movie over and over.

Don’t Hide. Self Identify!

Fantastic! If you’re not self identifying then you’re not self advocating! It really helps the reader come to terms with hearing loss through mind shifts. Not only that, it also teaches self advocacy and how to skillfully live with hearing loss. I highly recommend this book!!
