About this listen

I need your questions for a future Q&A episode!

What’s one thing you’ve always wanted to ask about language, visual phrases, how I process social cues, or anything in general? Send them to my email:mailto:theworldasiseeitpodcast@gmail.com

Have you ever wondered how a completely blind person truly "watches" a movie or "reads" the atmosphere of a room? In this episode, I explain my "Rulebook for Words"—why I use visual language just as much as anyone else, and how that language is actually a bridge to shared human experience. I dive into the technology that lets me fully "watch" a movie (Audio Description), how I use tone and sound to "read the room" and process social cues, and the non-visual meaning behind phrases like "I saw that coming." My goal is to show you that these words are about understanding, not sight.
