Host Crystal Hand interviews her deaf friend Holly Ambrass where they discuss her life as a CODA (Child of a Deaf Adult), a deaf woman and a mother of a hard of hearing child. In this episode Holly talks about what it was like growing up in a generational deaf family and her journey of her progressive hearing loss that ultimately led to her getting a cochlear implant as an adult. Crystal and Holly examine an array of topics including the process of getting a cochlear implant from surgery to post activation, the challenges she faces in her job, as well as what it is like to be a single mom raising a hard of hearing daughter.
