As summer starts winding down, I've been thinking about something.

There are sounds that only exist in these last few weeks of the season. And they’re the kinds of sounds you don't notice until they're gone.

The specific hum of a lawnmower on a Saturday morning. Kids two streets over at a pool party. The ice cream truck that only comes around in August. Cicadas at dusk are doing their thing whether you want them to or not. 😂

As an audiologist, I think about sound differently than most people. And one question I find myself sitting with more than any other is this:

👉 What is the sound of summer that you would miss the most?

What is the one sound that, if it started to fade or sound different, would change the season for you?

I'll go first. For me, it's thunderstorms ⛈️ rolling in on an August afternoon. Nothing sounds quite like that.

Our overall health plays a powerful role in how well we hear, and diabetes is one condition that deserves special attention.

Over time, changes in blood sugar can affect the tiny blood vessels and nerves in the inner ear, making hearing loss twice as common in people with diabetes compared to those without it. It is a reminder that caring for your hearing is also part of caring for your whole body! 🫶❣️

If you or someone you love is managing diabetes, a baseline hearing test is a simple and meaningful step toward long‑term wellness.

We are here to support you with compassion every step of the way!

If you've been sitting on this for a while, wondering whether to say something, talking yourself out of it, telling yourself it's probably nothing, I want you to hear this.

👉 You're not being dramatic.
👉 You're not overstepping.
👉 You're not trying to take something away from them.

You're paying attention. And that is exactly what people who love each other do. 💞

There's a particular kind of quiet worry that comes with noticing changes in a parent. It doesn't announce itself. It just shows up: at the dinner table, in the car, on the phone, and then you carry it home with you and don't quite know what to do with it. 😟

A lot of families stay in that place for a long time because they don't want to get it wrong. They don't want to make their parent feel old, or embarrassed, or like something has been taken from them.

That hesitation comes from a good place. But I’ve seen, again and again, that the families who have the conversation (even the imperfect, uncomfortable version) are always glad they did.

If you've been carrying this quietly, you don't have to figure it all out before you say something. You just have to start somewhere. We're here if you need a place to begin. 🤍

Ever wonder what happens behind the scenes at New Leaf Hearing Care? 🤔

Today’s moment: running a real‑ear measurement!

It’s the kind of quiet work that doesn’t usually make it to social media, but it’s what makes hearing care feel personal instead of clinical. These little details are how we make sure every patient walks out hearing their world the way it should sound. 👂🥰

August brings warm evenings, outdoor concerts at Red Rocks, and the last golden stretch of summer. It’s the perfect time to make sure your hearing aids are tuned for the moments you love! 🦻💯

If music is important to you, ask us about creating a dedicated “music program.” It reduces processing so that sounds feel fuller, richer, and more natural!

A small adjustment can make your favorite summer soundtrack even better! 🎶

If you've ever sat in a noisy restaurant and struggled to follow the conversation, you have something in common with one of the most famous rock musicians alive.

Dave Grohl — drummer 🥁 for Nirvana, frontman 🎸 of Foo Fighters, two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Famer — has been reading lips for about 20 years. He has tinnitus and hearing damage, worse in his left ear from decades of snare drums and stage monitors. In a crowded restaurant, he says, there is no way he could follow a conversation.

When the lights go off at night, he describes it as a constant high-pitched tone that never stops. 👂

And yet he still performs. Still records. Still tours.

His story is a good reminder of two things:
1️⃣ Hearing loss doesn’t discriminate. It happens to people at the top of their game, not just the elderly.
2️⃣ The longer you wait to understand what is happening, the harder things become.

The crowded restaurant. The conversation you half-followed. The ringing that shows up at the end of a loud day… if any of this sounds familiar, it might be worth a conversation. We are here.

Something worth knowing as we head into fall… and honestly, any time of year when mopeds, motorcycles, and bikes are out in full force.

👉 Mild head injuries are easy to overlook.

You feel shaken up, maybe a little “off” for a few days, and then life gets busy, and you move on. No stitches, no hospital stay, nothing that felt serious enough to follow up on.

But mild traumatic brain injuries (even ones that never involved a loss of consciousness) can affect hearing, balance, and the brain's ability to process sound in ways that don't always show up right away.

A fender bender. A fall off a moped. A bike accident where you hit your head but felt okay afterward. These are exactly the kinds of events that can quietly affect the auditory system without anyone connecting the dots later. 🧠👂

If you’ve noticed changes in your hearing, such as persistent ringing, dizziness, or difficulty following conversations since a head injury, it is worth mentioning to your audiologist!

Your full history helps us give you the most accurate picture of what is happening and why. Every detail matters.

This time of year tends to bring a shift in routine: more people, more noise, and busier environments!

Recently, a new patient shared that quick stops, like running into a store, had started to feel more stressful than they used to.

With background noise and fast-paced questions, it felt overwhelming to keep up. 😓

I think a lot of people can relate to that pressure in those small, everyday moments, especially when everything feels rushed.

So we talked through what those interactions were like, then tested her hearing and reviewed why busy environments make it harder to catch speech clearly, especially when conversations are short and quick.

We focused on helping her feel more confident in those situations so they did not feel so overwhelming. The win was a big one for her 👉

She could move through those interactions more easily and even have a quick, friendly exchange without second-guessing herself.

She no longer felt that sense of pressure, and that made everyday errands feel simple again. 💓

If the small moments have started feeling harder than they should, that's worth paying attention to. It doesn't have to stay that way.

We'd love to help you find out why and what's possible on the other side. Send us a message and let's talk. 💚

Untreated hearing loss affects far more than the ears! When the brain is not receiving clear sound signals, it begins to work overtime to fill in the gaps. 🧠

Over time, this extra effort can lead to changes in the areas of the brain responsible for processing sound and even the regions that help with attention and focus. It is the brain’s way of adapting, but it can make communication feel harder and more tiring than it needs to be. 😥

The good news is that early testing and treatment help keep both your hearing and your brain engaged in the way they are meant to function. If you have noticed changes in your hearing or find yourself working harder to follow conversations, this is the perfect time to take the next step.

We are here to support you with clarity, care, and guidance every step of the way.
