Karen Putz: Unwrapping Your Passion

Join us for our first fully captioned show with Karen Putz as we talk about unwrapping your passion.

 

Karen was born with normal hearing and became hard of hearing after a bout of illness in elementary school. At the age of 19, she tripped over a wake while barefoot water skiing and cartwheeled into the water.  She thought she merely had water in her ears, but being deaf was here to stay, thanks to a wacky gene in her family. Becoming deaf turned out to be a blessing; after she dried the tears, Karen decided to embrace life and a whole new world opened up.

 

Karen is a board member and Director of Deaf and Hard of Hearing Infusion at Hands & Voices, a parent-driven organization that is dedicated to providing non-biased support to families with deaf and hard of hearing children, and founder and former President of Illinois chapter of Hands & Voices.

 

More than anything, Karen loves helping others unwrap their passions.  She’s a certified Passion Test Facilitator and 48 Days coach. For more information, visit Karen's website, email her at Karen@karenputz.com or follow her on Twitter.
