What Will 2021 Bring? Members Share Their Thoughts

January 07, 2021

After a harrowing year in which COVID-19 wreaked havoc, we're bringing you a show about your colleagues' outlook on the new year.



Many are hoping for fresh starts and meaningful change.


In the first segment, audiologists and SLPs share what they're looking forward to in 2021--including increased cultural responsiveness and improved physical and mental health.



Then audiologist Carrie Spangler recounts her experience of receiving a cochlear implant (CI) after working in the field for more than 20 years. Spangler describes her CI journey and how the device affects how she thinks about her work. You can read more about her CI experiences on her blog, Hearing Spanglish.
