Love & Language Podcast

Love & Language Podcast

Now available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts

The Love and Language Podcast is an educational and heartwarming podcast that empowers & inspires hearing parents of d/Deaf children who utilize cochlear implants and other hearing devices and all forms of communication and language.

Oh, hey!

We are so glad you're here.

We are Christy and Beth, and this is the podcast we wish we'd had when we learned our own children were deaf. The beginning (heck, even the middle) of this journey is stressful, confusing and overwhelming. But it can also be pretty darn beautiful. So, we're making it our mission to give you access to information, resources, professionals, other parents and more.

"Amazing resource for parents!"

"As a professional, I love every bit of this and know this is an invaluable tool to parents no matter where they are in their child's hearing journey. I also know that listening to parents' stories makes me a better audiologist. I will definitely be recommending this podcast as a resource to any parent at the start of their child's hearing journey!"

"I can tell you one thing you will never regret: giving your child access to too many options when it comes to communication and language."
