    Brief summary of the show: 

    May is Healthy Vision Month and our co-hosts discuss the importance of annual comprehensive eye examinations. A comprehensive eye examination is different from a regular vision screening as it includes a patient's health history, visual acuity, refraction, and eye health. During this examination, the doctor will test for glaucoma, and dilate the eyes to get a clear view of the internal structure of the eyes among other tests.

    • BOLD Our co-hosts talk about their most recent eye examinations and why it's so important to maintain eye health. 
    • BLIND Jonathan Marin, Program Director, Career Discovery Project. In his role, Jonathan ensures that high school/college youth who are blind or low vision gain access to quality internships.

    Brief summary of the show:

In today's show, Forgotten Women In History, we will talk about our personal reflections on how we want to be remembered as blind women. Then we'll hear the story of one blind woman's fight to survive and to keep her children in a society that deemed her unworthy.

    Bold Blind Beauty On A.I.R. Show Notes

    Date: 2/26/21

    Episode title and number: Featuring Chef Alicia Connor & Michael Nye #2

    Brief summary of the show: 

    "I do think this project is about, really in some ways, not about blindness at all, but it’s about our shared humanity and our shared fragility. And it’s about incredible mystery of perception, and about adaptation. And I think discrimination grows from the sighted community not understanding or not willing to understand that anyone can adapt to new situations. They just see immediately what happens if they imagine themselves blind, but they don’t realize you adapt by learning." ~Michael Nye

    The Month of February, known for love, is also recognized as Heart Health Month and Low Vision & RP Awareness Month. 

    • BOLD Heart Healthy Eating expert Alicia Connor, a registered dietitian nutritionist, chef, and creator of Quick & Delish will give us some cool tips for healthy eating.
    • BLIND Low vision what is it? How many people are affected by it? Can it be cured?  Sylvia will answer these and more questions about this condition.
    • BEAUTY Michael Nye, author of My Heart Is Not Blind will share a clip from one of the participants of this awesome project. Then he will tell us how the project came about.
