In Episode 5 of Changing the Narrative, Murray and Elizabeth break open one of the most powerful topics yet: self-advocacy and self-confidence. From strangers grabbing your arm in New York City to being told you “look like you can see,” they share raw, funny, and eye-opening stories about what it really takes to stand up for yourself as a blind or low-vision person. Murray dives into redefining who you are beyond your vision, while Elizabeth reveals the turning points that pushed her from frustration to fierce self-advocate, as they explore the spectrum of blindness, the burden of always educating others, and the moments when saying “no” becomes your strongest tool. If you’ve ever struggled to speak up, felt underestimated, or wondered how to build real confidence, this episode has something for you.
