The Checkup with Doctor Mike · She Doesn't Want To Cure Her Blindness | Molly Burke · 12 Oct 2025 podcast

They're always like, oh my God, cool.

Never are they like, that's weird.

But they're going to think it's weird when you never tell them.

Because I grew up being the different kid.

That's why I was bullied.

I wasn't bullied because I'm blind.

I was bullied because they knew I was different, but they didn't know how or why.

And difference equals vulnerability.

I stuck out.

And so it was easy to make me a target.

But I think that if kids had just been more educated and aware and disability had been normalized, had been humanized from a young age, I think society would treat disability a hell of a lot different.

It's very multilayered.

You know better than everyone that there's no fix-it-all solution, right?

There's no magic pill.

So I'm not going to sit here and be like, oh, it just happened overnight.

It was a multi-year long journey of healing, which is never linear.

So lots of ups and downs, lots of different interventions.

I really leaned into both Eastern and Western medicine.

So it really looked like changing my life entirely.

It meant a lot of therapy, both talk therapy and cognitive behavior therapy.
