About this listen
In this episode of Endeavor to Connect, host Steve Baskis is joined by his partner Ally for an honest, experience-based conversation about relationships that include blindness or visual impairment. Together, they explore how communication, independence, and mutual respect shape healthy partnerships—especially when visual cues are absent. Topics include first impressions, common misconceptions about blindness, balancing support versus caregiving, adapting to daily life, and learning to communicate clearly through tone, language, and trust. This episode is designed for partners, friends, caregivers, and anyone seeking a deeper, more realistic understanding of blind–sighted relationships. This conversation only scratches the surface, and future episodes will continue these discussions with additional voices from partners, caregivers, and the blind and visually impaired community. Stay tuned as the conversation continues.
