SignsTV Podcast Kicks Off with Inspiring Story of Jace Wambua
Jace Wambua, a remarkable lady who happens to be visually impaired, kicks off the first episode of the SignsTV Podcast, which will focus on trending topics while also featuring people sharing their life stories.
Wambua, born visually impaired, when questioned about her unique point of view concerning her disability, jokingly says with a twinkle in her eye, "Oh, I'm from those parts of the country that are believed to be tops in witchcraft!" a perception roughly half of people appear to share, especially if they're uncomfortable with disabilities.
Beyond her cheerful nature, she shared insights into her interesting life, passionately revealing that she is a special needs educator who specializes in empowering people with visual impairments. She's not just teaching from a textbook; she's teaching from a lifetime of experience, guiding others through life with confidence.
Wambua is a gifted vocalist and a voracious reader. Her captivating story emphasizes a vital message that her visual disability is not a limitation.
In a world where understanding disability remains a challenge for many, Wambua offers remarkable clarity on how she prefers to be addressed, challenging common and often misguided labels. "There's nothing like persons with visual impairments having a '6th sense,'" she stated firmly. "And I really don't like being referred to as 'differently abled,' or 'special needs,' or 'living with a disability.' I am not special. I just need aids to help my independence."
