Thriving Blind - feat. Kristin Smedley

On today’s podcast, we got to chat with Kristin Smedley on what “Thriving Blind” means to her! ✨

Kristin had finally achieved her dream, a career in education, when her life was turned upside down.

Both of her sons were diagnosed with rare eye conditions that plunged them all into total darkness. Kristin knew that she had to find a way to advocate for her boys and give them the life & opportunities that they deserved. 🤍

Today, Kristin, a speaker, author, and advocate for those with visual impairments, shares her journey with us and how she was able to move past her fears and obstacles and achieve extraordinary outcomes!
