I Got This!
Each person’s walk through the loss of eyesight is different. Today’s Woman On The Move, Maria Johnson, of Girl Gone Blind, is a powerhouse who you get to personally meet by way of her podcast interview with Thomas Reid of Reid My Mind Radio.
I recently spoke with Maria by phone and was immediately taken with her energy and how much we share in common. We are in the same age bracket, we are parents, and we are passionate about our missions.
“I realized I needed to get my head wrapped around this whole “I’m now blind” thing!” ~Maria Johnson
Maria, who suddenly lost her eyesight to Leber’s Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON) a condition that can cause the optic nerve to atrophy, began to publicly share her journey three months after sight loss. Three and a half years later she’s attained a huge following and is featured weekly on RNIB Connect Radio.
