Out of Sight


Dec 20, 2019

Philadelphia is riddled with history. There is one family there that is adding to the long list of historical happenings. This episode is a conversation with Kristin Smedley, TED Talker, author, President of Curing Retinal Blindness Foundation and recent Award winner. She’s Mom to two young men who defy the term “blind” and a beautiful daughter who is blessed with vision beyond her years.

Sit in with us as I get one on one time with all four family members. 

Kristin Smedley is a rising star in the blindness community and making inroads with geneticists, politicians and CEO’s. I don’t stop with Kristin, I had the good fortune to meet with her two sons, Michael and Mitch, who both are blind and defying all boundaries (because they don’t see any). But wait! There’s more! There’s a fourth Smedley, Karissa, the youngest who holds her own and is sighted.

Find out more at www.CRB1.org and www.ThrivingBlind.com. You can get her book, Thriving Blind: Stories of Real People Succeeding Without Sight on Amazon.com.

Enjoy this beautiful family.
