10 Moms Who Changed the Meaning of Motherhood in 2015

This mom created a company to destigmatize hearing aids for children.

Sarah Ivermee, the mother of a child who is deaf in one ear and has hearing loss in the other, could relate when her friend complained that her daughter wouldn't wear her hearing device because of the teasing she'd endure. The creative mother decided to do something to try and eradicate the stigma that these kids face and created hearing aid decals, which featured sports insignias and superheroes as well as flowers, for the kids. Her clever company Lugs now sells these playful additions to hearing aids across the world.
