Hearing Between Words

Hearing Between Words
Podcast Description
Hearing Between Words is a podcast about navigating life with auditory processing disorder (APD)—brought to you by someone who lives it every day (and definitely isn’t an audiologist!).
I’ll share my personal experiences, explore the quirks and challenges of APD, and chat with experts and others in the neurodiverse community.
Whether you’re curious about what it’s like to hear but not quite process, or you’re on this wild APD journey yourself, this podcast is your space to learn, grow and not feel so alone.
Because sometimes, it’s not about what you hear—it’s about how you hear it.

In today’s episode, I’m opening up about my personal journey with auditory processing disorder (APD). Even though I was diagnosed at a young age, I didn’t fully understand what that meant until adulthood. For years, I just thought I was “bad at listening” or missing things everyone else seemed to catch. Navigating school, conversations, and social situations felt like decoding a language no one else realized I was struggling to understand.
This episode is the start of something I wish I had growing up — a space to talk openly about what it’s like living with APD. I’ll share how it’s impacted my learning, relationships, and self-confidence, and why I’m so excited to finally create a podcast dedicated to this topic.
In upcoming episodes, you can expect expert advice, practical coping tools, and honest stories from others who “hear between the words” too. My hope is that this becomes a supportive, empowering community for anyone affected by APD — whether you’re newly diagnosed, undiagnosed, or simply curious.
