  • Off The Beaten Path Episode Four - Penn Street
    2024/11/21

    Today I am speaking with Penn Street! She shares with me her life as a young tom-boy and her adventurer's spirit. The harrowing tale of survival and healing from a rattlesnake bite and how she overcame all the no's in life and learned to navigate her vision loss on her own terms. I know you will find great inspiration in what she has to share with us today!

    Here's a bit more about Penn Street
    Penn Street lost most of her eyesight at age nine from Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS) after being bit by a rattlesnake. Her tom-boy spirit proved the medical teams wrong over and over again. She not only survived, but thrived. SJS compromised Penn's sight, but not her tom-boy spirit. She made the choice early that she would not be shoved to the sidelines. Her career spans decades working in the disability communities. Her passion is showing others that the outdoors is for all of us and we have to show up and be at the table when discions are being made. Penn has rafted the Grand Canyon, summited many of the peaks in surrounding her home in Colodo, skiis the steep winter trails, paddle boards, and takes long walks every chance she gets. She is also the host of the podcast, The Blind Chick.
