Do you ever wonder if there is a purpose for blindness? How can it be seen as a gift? This week, Dr. Hoby Wedler is joined by Blake Lindsay, an author, public speaker, voice artist, and the director of communications and outreach for Envision Dallas. They explore these questions as well as discuss Blake’s fascinating story. While enjoying a 22-year career in radio broadcasting, Blake also spent 7 years at Nations Bank (now Bank of America) and worked with Dallas Area Rapid Transit and Zig Ziglar Corporation before moving to Dallas Lighthouse for the Blind, which became Envision Dallas.
During their conversation, Blake shares his personal story of living with retinoblastoma, the path he took to get to where he is now, and what it took to write his book, Blind for a Purpose. In addition to the tremendous impact Blake’s parents had on his life, he shares how Louis Braille and Zig Ziglar were also very strong influences on him. Blake’s story highlights how he made different jobs accessible while building strong relationships with colleagues and mentors. His positive outlook and perspective on blindness are sure to inspire you—and maybe even shift your own perspective.
