Let's welcome our podcast guest Chelsea Jackson Villines - deaf mom, entrepreneur, motivational speaker and all-round an inspirational woman.  My name is Chelsea and I was born 30+ years ago. I am happily married to an amazing man who puts up with the crazy me. I am a BOYmom of 3 and expecting baby #4 in May. I am deaf! Yes, you read that right. I’m not from Germany like I tell people when they ask about my accent (although it’s pretty funny seeing their facial expressions). I wasn’t born deaf, I lost my hearing at the age of around 18 months from a fall down a flight of stairs. My parents gave up trying to find out the main cause and just realized it’s what the Lord had in plans for me! I grew up in the public school system and excelled in sports and academics. Thanks to my amazing family and teachers and friends! I seriously wouldn’t be who I am without them!! So wife, mama… and I’m a dental hygienist! Yes, I love cleaning dirty teeth and trying to help you improve your oral health (even though you don’t want to listen to me). I’m also a shampoo rep! I love helping people have a healthy head of hair so if you need help- I’m your girl! I always love proving people wrong and being a successful deaf mama!!!
