Heather Whitestone. That name has become synonymous with great adversity, incredible determination and unprecedented achievement. In Listening With My Heart, Heather tells her own story and the stories of others who have inspired her, proving that no obstacle is too big and that with hard work, perseverance, and faith, each of us can move mountains.



Profoundly deaf since she was a year old, Heather struggled against the odds to live a normal life. Ironically, though, because of her deafness she never heard the voices of discouragement that many of us so often hear. She never heard the doctor tell her family that she wouldn't develop beyond third grade abilities, she never heard the voices of those who said she would never dance ballet, or even speak. She did, however, hear the encouraging spirit of her family, and she brought herself along to become Miss America in 1995. Though disabled, her incredible gifts have inspired many throughout the world, and in Listening With My Heart she shares her life-changing wisdom to others that with strength and faith, anything is possible.
