In 1983, President Ronald Reagan made an announcement that changed the public perception of hearing aids.
By speaking openly that he wore Starkey Hearing aids, he let people know they weren’t alone in their hearing loss.
That single act helped people feel seen, understood and worthy of help.
His courage helped create a breakthrough in a longstanding stigma that we are still working to overcome today.
This Presidents’ Day, I honor his example.
