Essential Reading for Anyone Living With Hearing Loss

Praise’s Review:  The Way I Hear It: A Life With Hearing Loss by Gael Hannan

When I first picked up this book, I could not put it down.  Gael has her audience captured with her witty stories and authentic sharing about the ups and downs of life with hearing loss.  I cried and laughed and felt like I was walking alongside her life journey as she talks about having a significant hearing impairment and navigating the challenges of growing up, schooling, working, dating, marriage, and family life.  Gael gives us an honest picture of the depth of her disappointments and the joys of her triumphs.  I have been introducing The Way I Hear It to my clients since it was published in 2015 because I firmly believe that life is much better when we do it together. One of my clients even commented that this book “felt like a big hug”.  Gael helped her feel less alone and more understood. In her memoir, Gael shares the resources and experiences that changed her life and her family’s life. 

Do yourself a favour and read this book, maybe it will change your life too! 😊 5 stars!

Praise’s Review:  Hear & Beyond: Live Skillfully with Hearing Loss by Shari Eberts and Gael Hannan

When I heard that Gael had another book coming out in early 2022, I quickly put in a preliminary order through Amazon.ca to have it sent to me as soon as it was available.  This time Gael joined forces with hearing loss advocate and author, Shari Eberts, for another essential read .  Hear & Beyond has many accolades and has been summarized as “the ultimate survival guide to living well with hearing loss” and “a clear roadmap for individuals living with hearing loss”.  Gael’s previous book was written as a personal memoir, while this book is written like a guide for life.  Together, Gael and Shari educate us all about hearing loss concepts that many of us may not even think about.  This hearing loss manual discuses different segments of life with hearing loss and goes from understanding why this book is important, changing mindsets, to becoming a confident personal advocate for good communication.  This new book is a reference for different life stages, and the authors share “life hacks” that they have developed and improved over the years.  Hear & Beyond will offer a fresh positive outlook to living life with hearing loss.

You owe it to yourself to read this book! 😊 5 stars!
