About This Podcast

Welcome! It is my pleasure to introduce "Chasing the Light," a podcast created to serve as my personal journal of faith, perseverance, and resilience after being born into darkness. Run alongside during my race against blindness as I embark on a promising and life-changing adventure from darkness to light! I will be sharing my thoughts, emotions, and accounts throughout a clinical treatment trial for my rare blinding inherited retinal disease, Lebers Congenital Amaurosis as I balance marriage, motherhood, and a career. I hope my story serves as an encouragement and inspires others as I share my strengths and struggles throughout my vision journey! Questions? Please e-mail [email protected]
