How To Change The World, Build Strong Values & Create a New Identity: Lessons From a Blind Girl

@theblindcharity is a young woman living and working in Edmonton, Canada. She joined host Patrick Strevens back in July of this year to share her story and discuss what it's like living as a blind and brain-injured woman in an abled world.At the age of 14, Charity suffered a brain injury which left her with a greatly reduced visual field, among other neurological problems, and yet she lives a fulfilling life: independent, social, and unafraid to advocate for change.What is the difference between performative advocacy, and virtue signalling, versus 'holistic' activism, and living your values. Is it possible that we truly can be the change we want to see in the world?Plus: how much of Charity's identity is rooted in her blindness? And what can we learn from her insight as we look to create our own identity and build a better life?Stay tuned this week for a follow-up episode where Patrick will dig into these ideas of values and identity and how we can build a better life with those in mind.Part two of this conversation with Charity will be release next week! Until then, remember: Better Is Possible.
