Bridging the Gap Between the Hearing & Deaf Worlds
Erin Perkin from Mabely Q was tired of being told what she can’t do, being written off from jobs or offered lower salary than her experience level, just because she was born deaf.
So she decided to start her own graphic design business.
Being a deaf entrepreneur comes with challenges, but after chatting with Erin, you will learn that everyone has their own challenges but it doesn’t have to stop you from progressing in your career.

In episode 3, I chat with Sara Hawthorn, a PR business owner who is also tackling and breaking down the barriers that exists within the PR and communications industry
She also shares her own hearing loss journey and offers fantastic advice along the way.
In episode 2, I chat to Amy Rowe, who runs two businesses and is an ambassador of a deaf charity.
We talk about the challenges growing up with a hearing loss (alongside her brother), fighting to build a career as a journalist and subsequently co-founding 2 businesses whilst doing her charity work.
