Let's continue the conversation- send me a text! After an incredible journey with the EmpowEAR Audiology Podcast, I’m sharing a brief and personal update. In this episode, I reflect on the conversations, connections, and experiences that have shaped this space—from clinicians and advocates to families and individuals with lived experience. Along the way, this podcast has also been part of my own journey of finding my frequency—personally, professionally, and as someone navigating life with hearing loss and cochlear implants. As I step into a new role as Executive Director of the American Cochlear Implant Alliance, while continuing my own journey as a cochlear implant user, I’m taking a pause on the podcast to create space for what comes next. This is not an ending—just an opportunity to grow through new experiences, and discover how these conversations may continue to evolve in a new frequency. Thank you for being part of this community and this journey. More to come… just in a new way, and at the right time.
