  • The World As I See It Episode 17: The Smudge in the Center Why 80% of Blind People Still See Light
    Nov 17 2025

    You think you know what blindness is? Think again. For 16 episodes, I've shared my story of total blindness, but now I'm flipping the script to expose the vast spectrum of sight loss. This week, we kick off a crucial 4-part miniseries by diving into Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) , the condition that steals your central vision. What does it feel like to see everything around a face but lose the detail right in the middle? I break down the science, the social awkwardness of having to look past someone, and reveal the surprising truth: why the majority of people who are legally blind still have residual light and shadow perception. This series starts now #theworldasiseeit #blindnessawareness !

  • The World As I See It Episode 16: How I Truly 'Watch' a Movie and 'Read' a Room
    Nov 10 2025

    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.
