From Corrie:

I’m Corrie Gallien—a deaf attorney, advocate, author, speaker, and proud mother of four daughters. More than any title, I’m a storyteller at heart. My lived experiences—from navigating life with a disability and building a legal career to personal transformations along the way—form the foundation of my voice.

I share these experiences with purpose and honesty. I reflect on the challenges and triumphs alike, weaving them into narratives about healing, growth, and finding meaning beyond adversity.

I write from a place of honesty, warmth, and lived experience—always aiming to create connection, not just content. Through these reflections, I hope you’ll find more than just a glimpse into my journey—I hope you’ll also find inspiration and community.
