Lizzie Eastham and Sam Rickard present Studio 1 - Vision Australia Radio’s weekly look at life from a low vision and blind point of view. 

On this week’s show 

"When I Grow Up, with Belinda Wilson"

What are you going to do when you grow up?    

Do the expectations, positive or negative, of family; friends and our support network in general affect what we do with our lives?    

Lizzie and Sam are joined by Vision Australia’s own Belinda Wilson to talk about learned helplessness and how the expectations, or lack of expectations from significant people in the lives of people with a disability can impact an entire lifestyle.   

Studio 1 welcomes any input from our listeners. If you have any experience or thoughts about issues covered in this episode or believe there is something we should be talking about.
