Hearing loss doesn't always happen overnight. In fact, the people around us may notice the changes before we do.

On this episode of Growth Mode Podcast & Radio Show, Nina Labbe sits down with Dr. Mackenzie Thomas, audiologist and owner of Altitude Audiology, for a conversation about hearing health, human connection, entrepreneurship, and why paying attention to our hearing matters at every stage of life.

Mackenzie shares her journey into audiology, her experience working with cochlear implants, and what ultimately led her to step into entrepreneurship and build Altitude Audiology.

They also discuss some of the early signs of hearing loss people often overlook, why so many people wait to have their hearing checked, how today's hearing technology has changed, tinnitus, protecting our hearing from everyday noise, and the ways hearing challenges can affect our relationships and quality of life.

You'll also hear Mackenzie's perspective on building a healthcare practice that puts the patient experience first—and the lessons she's learned as both an audiologist and business owner.
