Brian Tom bills himself as "America's Visionary Speaker". Nothing too unusual about a motivational speaker employing the work "visionary" except when he's blind. I  can attest to the fact that Brian has that kind of vision and he's motivated. He is perhaps one of the most  engaging people you'll want to meet. His story would defy his attitude though. If you had the world at your feet, studying at UCLA at age 20 and then suddenly found out your sight was going due to glaucoma, how might you respond? How would anyone? How could life look fifteen or twenty years down the road? Brian's looks good today thanks to his winning attitude.

This podcast is an interview I had with him last week and I'm happy to say that I'll be working more with Brian and BlindStart in the future in conjunction with the NICENetwork. By the way, Brian is meeting with an official in Wash., D.C. this week to further his cause to help crack that 1% statistic of blind persons who own homes in America. Way to go Brian!  http://BlindStart.org.
