Happy Thanksgiving, fam!

From moving countries and learning new languages (German and then English) to adjusting to gradually losing her eyesight from the age of 13, Dagmar has grown to become tenacious and inspiring.

Dagmar Jamieson, my cousin's mentor and a life coach to many, became legally blind as a teenager. She was diagnosed with Stargardt macular dystrophy at an early age. She is happily married with a son and a certified life coach, business owner, and community leader.

In this episode, Dagmar shared her journey from Czechoslovakia to Austria and then Canada, adjusting to a new environment and learning new languages. Then there was the gradual loss of her sight and her determination not to let any limitations hold her back. You'll learn about some myths about blindness, as well as how strong and determined an 8-year-old can be amidst life-changing circumstances.

Dagmar's life is inspiring. She has demonstrated great rigor and an unbeatable outlook on life. We are grateful for her, especially in this thanksgiving and her impact on those around her. You should definitely listen to this episode because Dagmar's story will make you thankful.
