It’s not difficult to observe how your body ages over time. Your skin starts to develop some wrinkles. You start to lose your hair or it turns grey. Your knees start to hurt a little bit more. Your skin gets a bit droopy in places. Maybe your eyesight and your hearing both start to fade […]
For just a moment, picture that you have a job as a salesperson. Now imagine that you have a call scheduled today with a really valuable client. Multiple agents from their offices have come together to talk about whether to employ your company for the job. As the call proceeds, voices rise and fall…and are […]
Pizza is an interesting thing. As long as a few factors are met, you can adjust toppings, cheese, and sauce, and it’s still a pizza. Hearing loss is a lot like that. Symptoms and manifestations are caused by numerous different problems, loud noises, genetic factors, age, or ear blockages, but as long as you have […]

When you’re hearing two sounds at […]

But don’t forget about your hearing’s health before you go out for a day on the beach, a rocking concert, or perhaps a great backyard get-together. When you’re out enjoying summer, remember that […]
When you shower, always remember to wash your ears. It’s difficult not to say that in your “parenting” voice. Maybe when you were a kid you even remember your parents telling you to do it. As you get caught up in past nostalgia, that kind of memory can take you back to simpler times. But […]

Books-on-tape was what we used to call them, once upon a time. Of course, that was well before CDs, much less digital streaming.
