Ste Johnson (The VI Guy)

Episode 125 | Ste Johnson (The VI Guy) returns to the podcast! In this three hour episode, Ste shares how he has custom-designed a fulfilling life with his disability, his take on whether blindness exists on a spectrum, how he travels the globe as a legally blind man, how his parents knew he had retinitis pigmentosa (RP) but never told him, how his wife’s Cystic Fibrosis reshaped his perspective on vision loss, how he joined a dangerous paddleboard expedition by withholding the fact that he’s legally blind, how he creates content, and much more! SEE-THROUGH is hosted by Lance Johnson. Based in New York City, Lance is a video editor living with a rare and incurable eye condition called retinitis pigmentosa (or RP for short). In most cases, RP causes legal-blindness by the age of 40. Now 34, Lance uses SEE-THROUGH as a platform to explore his inevitable future of blindness through his transparent conversations with his guests. ------------------------- SUPPORT SEE-THROUGH: Buy Merch: https://seethroughpod.com/merch ------------------------- SUPPORT STE: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_vi_guy/ The RP Show: https://www.youtube.com/@therpshow ------------------------- FOLLOW SEE-THROUGH: YouTube: https://bit.ly/3JRSPEO Instagram: https://instagram.com/seethroughpod TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@seethroughpod X (Twitter): https://twitter.com/seethroughpod Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/seethroughpod Website: https://www.seethroughpod.com/ ------------------------- CHAPTERS: 00:00:00 - Intro 00:06:14 - Is Blindness a Spectrum? 00:32:37 - On Traveling 00:39:18 - Work & "Spend Your Time" 01:09:04 - His Wife, Anna 01:28:20 - On Not Having Kids 01:31:31 - RP Diagnosis Story 02:02:02 - Designing Your Life 02:18:41 - Content Creation 02:37:15 - Paddle Board Story 02:48:10 - Using Friends as Guides 02:57:59 - Closing
