درباره این اپیزود
This month I’m joined by the wonderful Anne Mok, who shares her journey from years of being told she was clumsy, shy, or just not very academic, to finally being diagnosed with cone-rod dystrophy, a rare inherited retinal condition, in adulthood. Anne talks honestly about the years of not being believed, the moment a specialist finally said “I believe you,” and how giving up driving, then learning to use a white cane, changed everything.
We talk about the fear of being seen with a cane, finding community on Instagram during the pandemic, and how that led to an unexpected new career in voice acting. Anne also shares the story behind her new book, Resilience and Purpose: Discovering Strength and Connection in Life’s Cracks, and why finishing it felt like a hug from her mum.
This is a conversation about grief, acceptance, and the things nobody tells you when your vision starts to change.
