I Can't See My Sister's Face Anymore (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week I’m joined by Millie - ranked 17 as one of the UK’s blind influencers, and someone whose honesty about sight loss stopped me in my tracks more than once during this conversation. Millie was born visually impaired due to septo-optic dysplasia, a rare brain condition that wasn’t diagnosed until her mid-teens. For years her vision loss was put down to cerebral palsy instead. She lost the rest of her sight suddenly, in her second year of university, waking up one day with only light percep
They've Discharged Me - There's Nothing More They Can Do for my Vision (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If you saw the video I posted before my hospital appointment, this is what happened. My vision has actually stabilised since the last check-up.

I talk about the affirmations and yoga philosophy I’v
Finding My Voice When I Couldn't See My Way (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This month I’m joined by the wonderful Anne Mok, who shares her journey from years of being told she was clumsy, shy, or just not very academic, to finally being diagnosed with cone-rod dystrophy, a rare inherited retinal condition, in adulthood. Anne talks honestly about the years of not being believed, the moment a specialist finally said “I believe you,” and how giving up driving, then learning to use a white cane, changed everything. We talk about the fear of being seen with a cane, finding
