Podcast appearances and mentions of michelle hu

Have you ever been part of a conversation or been in a situation where you feel like you are missing something? Where it feels like everyone else knows what's going on except you? This week's podcast/YouTube episode with Dr. Michelle Hu dives into what it feels like to ALWAYS feel that way. Michelle grew up hard of hearing, and describes her social interactions as 'swiss cheese' with information constantly falling through the holes.  We talk about what it feels like to experience the social world this way, how it led Michelle to learn how to 'mask', and I share tons of strategies for helping our kids understand the social world a bit better.  You can find Michelle at Mama Hu Hears

Listen today as Listen as Dr. Hu and I discuss why over-the-counter hearing aids aren't appropriate for children and why a child should see a pediatric audiologist. Dr. Michelle Hu realized that as her pediatric audiology patients started growing up and having children of their own they had a different set of questions than when they were her patients, so she decided to create an Instagram account called mama hu hears. She's also created an online program for parents of children who are deaf and hard of hearing. Not to tell parents what to do, but to offer all of the resources, information, different modes of communication, languages to have access to and healthcare specialists to get in touch with, and give them all of the ingredients so that they can make the best choices for their hearing journey with their family.  Dr. Michelle Hu, AuD Pediatric Audiologist Hard of Hearing Mama “My Child Has Hearing Loss, Now What?” www.mamahuhears.com www.instagram.com/mama.hu.hears/ This podcast is intended for families to share their own personal journeys without judgment.

Dr. Michelle Hu was diagnosed with mild hearing loss secondary to Enlarged Vestibular Aqueduct Syndrome/Pendred Syndrome and fit with bilateral hearing aids shortly after. Her mom was told that she would probably never read beyond a third-grade reading level.  As a result of EVAS, her hearing loss progressed each time she hit her head. This happened in 1st, 3rd and 5th grade, and by age 10 she had profound sensorineural hearing loss bilaterally.During her senior year of college, she had another sudden drop in hearing. She was sitting in the lobby waiting to have her hearing tested when her mom suggested that perhaps she'd make a good audiologist since she had firsthand experience with hearing loss and hearing aids. She was still unsure of what direction she wanted to go after graduation and this suggestion floored her. Yes, she wanted to help others in a healthcare setting, but she just didn't have a pull to a specific field. That year, her hearing came back with the help of intratympanic steroid injections, but she was already filling out applications with the goal to attend the Northeast Ohio Audiology Consortium.It was during her third year in graduate school that she and her classmates started to learn about cochlear implants. One night she was excitedly chatting about CI's with her parents, and they told her that she has been a CI candidate since she was young. They had chosen not to move forward since they were wary of the technology at the time and told Michelle she had adapted and learned how to thrive academically, that they did not feel it was a necessity. Michelle decided to undergo pre-CI evaluations and was implanted later that year. For the first time in a very long time, she could hear her feet shuffle on the carpet, the turn signal of her car, utensils tapping on dishes and leaves rustling with the wind. She could hear and understand conversation in a dark car, on the telephone; her confidence soared. She no longer avoided birthday parties, movie theaters or other social gatherings.She's since moved across the country from Kent, Ohio to San Diego, California to work as a pediatric audiologist. She doesn't think she would have made such a big move had she not received her first cochlear implant. She did not have the confidence to feel safe walking alone at night or talking on the phone with anyone other than her parents. About 5 years ago, Michelle had the opportunity to scratch culinary school off of her bucket list. It was THE most difficult listening situation that she chose to subject herself to for a long time (eight months exactly). The tiled floors, stainless steel equipment, appliances, high ceilings, exhaust fans, walls of refrigerators and water constantly running were an educational audiologist's acoustic nightmare! Not to mention, her chef/professor had a heavy French accent! She had him wear her FM system, constantly asked for repetition, asked her station buddy for clarification, and took copious notes. She spilled things, broke dishes, lost fingertips, burned herself - but despite the difficult learning environment, she mastered sauces, broke down poultry and seafood, created menus, plated, garnished, and in her own words, "It was WORTH it!"Connect with Dr. Michelle Hu by visiting her website.  Connect with the Hearing Matters Podcast TeamEmail: hearingmatterspodcast@gmail.com Instagram: @hearing_matters_podcast Twitter: @hearing_mattasFacebook: Hearing Matters Podcast

Exactly 1 Year ago today the empowEAr audiology podcast was released.  Today is not only a celebration of 1 year, but also a celebration of the 25th episode.  25 is a great # to celebrate whether it is a birthday, anniversary, or the 25th empowEAR audiology podcast.  What are you waiting to celebrate?  I encourage you to believe in yourself and make the most of what gifts and talents you were made for. IN celebration of 1 year and 25 episodes, I wanted to dedicate this episode to reflecting, refreshing and restarting.  Today I will reflect on my own personal gain, refresh on how 3C digital media made empowEAR audiology come alive as well as the multiple guests and listeners, and restart with goals for year 2.   The first episode of empowEAR audiology is titled “What is My Purpose”.   In reflecting on this question over the past year, I have been reminded that we truly do not know another person's journey- we all have our own experiences that make us who we are.  I am truly grateful that I tood this leap of faith with the empowerEAR audiolgy podcast to develop a unique platform for storytelling as it relates to personal and professional hearing journeys.  In episode #20, I interviewed Karin Weiser, international career transition coach, connector, and storytelling.  She also has a journey with a cochlear implant.  In this episode Karin goes deeper into why sharing your story.  We learn by stories, we open up emotions by telling stories, and we make lessons stick by telling stories.  What Story do you have to tell?   Reflecting on my own story as it relates to being hard of hearing as well as an audiologist; I hope empowEAR audiology is helping to break down the stigmas that continue to surround hearing loss and others gain a deeper understanding of the unique spectrum of deaf and hard of hearing individuals.   I started thinking about stigma again because it has been a topic of conversation at a recent conference that I attended.  My reflection actually took me back to my childhood years.  I thought to myself….this little girl ME, was born with hearing loss and not identified and fit with amplification until the age of 4, had a significant articulation difficulties,  wore analog hearing aids that really did not have the capacity to give access to the full speech spectrum, spend 12 years in speech, language, and auditory therapy, attended my public neighborhood school and was on an IEP receiving special ed services, went onto college and was told that because of my hearing loss, that pursing the field of audiology may not be a good choice, persisted through and achieved a doctorate in audiology, began a successful and rewarding career path in educational audiology, went on the cochlear implant journey late in life, and NOW I am hosting a podcast!!  Who would have ever thought that the little girl who was so difficult to understand with a significant bilateral severe to profound hearing loss would be celebrating the joy of 25 podcast episodes!!  Life has a way of making your own challenges your greatest purpose and if you dare to think differently you will emerge stronger.  In my own spiritual personal journey, I am absolutely grateful to have this lifelong hearing challenge.  Yes there are times that I am frustrated, mad, and feel isolated in this vibrant hearing world; but I have learned how to be resilient and determined.  From this hearing journey, emerged many positive relations and a purposeful career.  If you have not already heard my story, take a listen to episode one.  I hope you feel empowEARed after this little reflection to overcome your own obstacles with resilience and determination. In today's 25th episode I also wanted to hit the refresh button and talk about 3C Digital network, empowEAR's guests, and YOU as listeners.   I wanted to share a quick story about how I got connected to 3C Digital Media Network.  A good friend an colleague, Dr. Todd Houston interviewed me about 1 ½ years ago for his own podcast titled “The Listening Brain”.  You can visit his podcast and look for episode #10 to hear this conversation or go to the shownotes and you can find it here too.  After that episode, Todd asked if I have ever considered hosting my own podcast.  I had actually thought about it but with a full time job and family, I did not have an abundance of extra time to figure out all of the behind the scenes actions that go into launching and sustaining a podcast.  He went on to share about how he and 2 other colleagues that I know and admire, Scott Palasik and Tammy Bradham, teamed up and had created 3Cdigitalmedia network.  They were looking for content creators.  It was the exact platform, support, and expertise that I needed to be involved with to make empowEAR audiology come alive.  Thank you Todd for asking me and to the whole 3CDigital team for your ongoing guidance and support.  If any of you have considered a podcast, webinar, blog, or any other content creations…reach out and see if 3Cdigitatl media network would be a fit for you.  Thank YOU 3C! Let's hit the refresh button again and talk about the amazing guests!!  This podcast would not be possible without each of you being willing to give up some time and share your talents.  I truly get so excited each and every time that I have an interview set up!  You can visit the website to listen, Apple, Spotify, and Google play to catch all of the episodes.  I am going to give a brief rundown of each of the guests.   Dr. Cheryl DeConde Johnson, my first interview and you can hear about her personal story as a parent and professional as well as returning to school during the pandemic Dr. Tina Childress shares her personal story and we discuss “shoes” aka masks and accommodations during the pandemic Camille Warren is a mom and she shares her story and advice for parents and professionals for reentry back to school during the pandemic Dr Carol Flexer and a conversation about lifelong learning, mentoring, the brain, and passion for audiology Dr Gail Whitelaw and Counselors about teens, teen mentorship, and cultivating advocacy through the campUS experience Dr. Oliver Adunka, my CI surgeon and the cochlear implant process Dr. Elizabeth Walker and the significance of mild hearing loss in children Janet DesGeorges discusses her parent journey as well as her new book “Not a Leader, Now a Leader” Dr. Erin Schafer and wearing the mic Deanna Magna and the role of the TOD/HH Dr. Karen MacIver Lux  personal story and my HEAR-O Dr Ryan McCreary and the importance of research in audiology Dr Michelle Hu and happiness with peer to peer connections for deaf/hard of hearing 4 Moms (Nancy, Maggie, Stephanie, Tina) share Get It moments about raising a child who is d/hh Dr. Marc Brennan and his personal story, research and framing the hearing loss advantage Dr. Angela Alexander and her personal passion and dedicated work in the area of  APD Karin Weiser, career coach, cochlear implant user, and the importance of sharing your story Dr. Sam Atcherson and his personal journey and finding the right solutions and support Julianna and Andrew Hebert from HearSTrong Foundation and being a HS Champion Dr. Rene Gifford shares about bimodal hearing Jaime Vernon shares her mom journey and her 501c3 Songs for Sounds.   I want to say that I don't have a favorite episode because I love them all.  I am grateful for your storytelling, whether it is a personal or professional journey.  I loved learning from each of you and digging deeper into topics to empowEAR others.  I cannot wait to meet more guests as we kick off year 2.   Refresh one more time….Listeners!!  Thanks to all of you for tuning in twice a month to catch the latest episodes.  I have heard from many of year and continue to receive positive feedback.  It brings me great joy to hear when a college professor shares this podcast with students to listen.  It warms my heart to find out that a parent was inspired by another parent sharing their story.  I am encouraged when an adult who is deaf/hard of hearing realizes that there are others who are in their shoes.  Listeners keep on listening.  Share with others.  Engage with me on the empowEAR Audiology FB page.  Please give a 5 star review.  Consider writing a favorable comment.  All of these actions helps empowerEAR Audiology grow so others can benefit.  Listeners, if there is someone that you want to hear from, please reach out!!   Restart!!  I am looking forward to year 2 and 25 more episodes.  I strive to bring more empowEARing personal stories, cutting edge researchers and professionals, and additional practical knowledge and tips to all of you.  I will be trying out some new ways to engage in this upcoming year including some FB live events and learning opportunities.   A huge thanks again to everyone and for believing in me.  Cheers to Year 2 and 25 more.
