    The EchoVision Glasses Experience: Presented By Sunday Edition

    Sunday Edition PresentsThe EchoVision Glasses Experience This weeks Sunday Edition featured an in depth and community centered conversation exploring the EchoVision smart glasses and the growing ecosystem surrounding them. Our guest Amy from the AGIGA team guided us through multiple live demonstrations of the EchoVision glasses, offering a clear and practical look at how they function in real world use. Amy shared the story behind the development of the glasses, the philosophy that shaped their design, and what is coming next for both the product and the broader EchoVision community. We explored the history of EchoVision, how blind and low vision users were involved from the very beginning, and why the Pioneer experience is such a critical part of refining and strengthening the technology. Amy also walked listeners through how to learn more, where to find demos and resources, and how interested users can take next steps. A highlight of the episode was hearing directly from current EchoVision Pioneers. Several users joined the conversation to share their lived experiences, practical use cases, and honest reflections on how the glasses fit into daily life. These firsthand perspectives brought depth and authenticity to the discussion and reinforced the importance of designing assistive technology with the community rather than for it. We were also pleased to introduce Lisa Brooks, who is helping to manage and grow the social media presence surrounding EchoVision. Lisa shared insight into how the community connects online and how users can stay engaged, informed, and supported as the platform continues to evolve. This episode reflects what Sunday Edition does best, bringing together developers, users, advocates, and community voices for thoughtful and accessible conversations about technology, independence, and lived experience.

    Sunday Edition Presents: Blind Travel Foundation and Creative Guidance

    Blind Travel Foundation and Creative Guidance with Sunday Edition This week on Sunday Edition, we bring together two returning voices whose work reminds us that exploration is not just about where we go, but how deeply we listen, adapt, and grow. In our first conversation, we sit down once again with Mike Walsh, founder and executive director of the Blind Travel Foundation. Mike joins us to talk about blind led travel, adventure with purpose, and the power of reclaiming curiosity in a world that often underestimates what blind and low vision travelers can do. From meaningful travel grants to community storytelling, Mike shares how the Blind Travel Foundation continues to expand what access and possibility look like in motion. Mike also walks us through the application process for this year’s ten thousand dollar  travel grant and reminds listeners that the deadline is quickly approaching. In our second segment, we welcome back Coach Kaila Allen of Creative Guidance LLC. Kaila is a naturally curious soul whose twenty year journey through the healing arts is shaped by her lived experience with Leber Congenital Amaurosis. Diagnosed at age three, Kaila learned early that when one way of seeing closes, another opens. Her work centers on inner sight, deep listening, and guiding individuals through life transitions by integrating mindfulness, somatic resilience, wellness, and energy healing. Kaila believes transformation is not about becoming someone new, but uncovering the authentic and magnificent version of yourself that already exists. Kaila begins our conversation with a beautiful grounding exercise before we move into a discussion about intentional living and her chosen word of the year for 2026. Both of these conversations highlight something powerful. These are two members of our community who started with an idea, nurtured a dream, and put in the work to turn vision into action. Through the Blind Travel Foundation and Creative Guidance, Mike and Kaila have built something real, sustainable, and deeply rooted in giving back to the blind and low vision community. Together, these conversations explore travel, creativity, adaptation, and what it truly means to move from stuckness into purpose. Both Mike Walsh and Kaila Allen are familiar voices to the Sunday Edition family, and we are thrilled to bring them back for a conversation rooted in insight, experience, and forward motion. Sunday Edition airs every Sunday at 1 PM Eastern  on 2020 The Beacon and Corona FM.The podcast edition is available the very next day wherever you listen to podcasts by searching Sunday Edition with Anthony Corona.

    Intimate Evening with Rhonda Selby Presented by Sunday Edition

    > Friend of the Sunday Edition family of podcasts and a personal musical hero, Rhonda Selby joins us for an intimate and heartfelt conversation about music, vision, and life itself. > > Born and raised in the small town of Door, Michigan, Rhonda was diagnosed with retinoblastoma at just four months old and is totally blind. From an early age, sound and music became her language, her compass, and her constant companion. She began singing as a teenager, studying voice and keyboard, and later performing with bands across multiple genres, from pop and country to selections from the Great American Songbook. > > In this intimate evening, we journey through Rhonda’s journeys. We explore her creative process, her return to music after a long hiatus, and her recent work teaching herself to mix and produce. Along the way, we talk about the twists and turns life offers us, how vision is experienced far beyond sight, and how music carries us through surprise, loss, and renewal. > > Rhonda also speaks to the wide and sometimes surprising range of artists who have shaped her musical ear. From the precision and emotional discipline of classical voices like Beverly Sills and Kathleen Battle, to the storytelling and swing of jazz greats Ella Fitzgerald and Billie Holiday, to the soul rich expression of R and B icons Minnie Riperton and Deniece Williams, her influences reflect a deep respect for vocal honesty and emotional truth. These artists did more than inspire technique; they modeled how a voice can carry vulnerability, power, and grace all at once. In our conversation, Rhonda reflects on how these influences continue to guide her as a singer, producer, and listener, reminding us that music is not confined by genre, but expanded by lived experience. > > This is not just a conversation about songs, but about listening, becoming, and finding your voice again. > > Listen live or tune in on 2020 The Beacon.You can stream from anywhere on the website.You can also ask Alexa devices to enable 2020 The Beacon.Available on GetMeRadio and Live365. > > You can also listen on Corona FM.Visit www.anthonycorona.com and click on the tab for Corona FM. > > For questions, comments, or to request the login information to join us live, send an email to:SundayEdition@anthonycorona.com > > 🎤🎤🎤#SundayEdition#IntimateEvening#BlindMusicians#MusicAndLife#AccessibilityInTheArts#2020TheBeacon#CoronaFM > > Anthony CoronaHe/HimHost and Producer of Sunday edition sundayeditionac@gmail.com pisode Notes Notes go here Support Sunday Edition with Anthony Corona by contributing to their tip jar: https://tips.pinecast.com/jar/acb-sunday-edition This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

    Treading the Waters Of Life with Sylvia

    🌊 Treading the Waters of Life Setting Our Intention for a New Year Welcome back to Treading the Waters of Life 💙 In this month’s episode, we’re stepping into a powerful and reflective conversation about intention—how we choose to show up, not just where we’re trying to go. As we enter a new year, we’re given an invitation: to pause… to breathe… to reset. This is a season of reflection—of noticing what we want to leave behind and what we hope to carry forward. Some of us set resolutions. Some set goals. And yes, goals matter. They give us direction, focus, and a way to measure progress when the waters feel uncertain. But in this episode, we go deeper. ✨ Why Intentions Matter Intentions shape how we move through life, not just the destination. They guide us when plans shift, when waves rise, and when life doesn’t follow the map we carefully drew. Here on Treading the Waters of Life, we don’t just talk about destinations. We talk about the heart. The mindset of the soul. And the courage it takes to stay present in the journey. 🤍 Special Guests: David & Cheryl I’m honored to welcome two dear friends, David and Cheryl, who share wisdom, lived experience, and powerful gems about success, authenticity, faith, and resilience. Together, we explore: • The meaning of success? • How purpose isn’t about what you accomplish—but what others experience because of you •The importance of confidence, authenticity, and empowering others • Making a difference while staying true to who you are •Living in peace, joy, and doing what you love 🌊 Treading the Waters of Life: Stories & Reflections We reflect on seasons of life that felt like hurricanes—when the water was over our heads—and what helped us stay afloat through hope, faith, love, and community. Powerful takeaways from David & Cheryl: • Don’t try to do everything at once •Focus on the legacy you want to leave •Ask yourself: What do I want people to say when I retire… and when I’m no longer here? •Advocacy starts with advocating for yourself •Sometimes you have to shake things off and keep moving •Asking for help is not weakness—it’s a sign of strength and a desire to remain strong • Faith, family, and friendships emerged as anchors that help us weather every storm. 🌱 Authenticity, Hope & Closing Doors We dive into what it really means to be authentically you, especially when life brings change or challenge. We discussed: • Survival mode seasons • Closed doors—and the courage it takes to close some yourself • Holding onto possibility even when hope feels like the only plan left As David reminds us: Challenges will either make you bitter or better—choose wisely. 🌟 Intentions for 2026 We close with a powerful question: What intention are you setting for 2026, and how will you put it into action? Sylvia shares her quote for the year: “The most beautiful things cannot be seen or touched, but are felt with the heart.” Her word for the year: Hope. Cheryl reminds us that quality time with people matters deeply, and we reflect on the importance of fun and joy—learning how to enjoy the journey, not just endure it. 💫 A Gentle Invitation You don’t have to have everything figured out. You don’t need a perfect plan. You simply need a willingness to live with intention—right where you are. As you move into this new year, ask yourself: • How do I want to show up? • What do I want to carry in my heart as I navigate the days ahead? Write it down. Name your intentions. Let them guide your choices—especially when the waters feel uncertain. 🤝 Stay Connected If this episode resonated with you, share it with someone who may need hope, clarity, and a reminder that they’re not alone Subscribe and stay connected!  On Treading the Waters of Life, we believe growth happens when we walk together, learn together, and move forward with purpose and grace. 📘 Be sure to visit my website www.TotalImpactPartners.comand download the book 🎙 Part of the Sunday Edition family of podcasts & digital services 🤍 Sponsored by Florida Vision Technology 👉 Listen to the episode here: (link) Until next time, keep treading the waters with courage, with intention, and with hope. 🌊✨ pisode Notes Notes go here Support Sunday Edition with Anthony Corona by contributing to their tip jar: https://tips.pinecast.com/jar/acb-sunday-edition This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

    Cured! A Sunday Edition Advocacy Special Event

    CURED: A Sunday Edition Special Advocacy Event Sunday Edition presents a powerful and timely broadcast centered on history, activism, and the urgent work still before us. This special episode begins with a screening of the audio described version of the documentary CURED, which chronicles the pivotal moment when LGBTQ activists successfully challenged the psychiatric establishment and forced the removal of homosexuality from the American Psychiatric Association’s list of mental illnesses. Achieved through strategy, courage, and relentless advocacy, this victory marked one of the earliest and most consequential steps toward equality for the LGBTQIA plus community. For listeners who would like to watch the full 80 minute version of CURED in advance of this conversation, the filmmakers have generously made it available to the Sunday Edition community for a limited time. To request the advance screening link, please email SundayEdition@anthonycorona.com. While CURED focuses on the removal of homosexuality from the DSM, the lessons embedded in this history extend far beyond one community. This is a story of how marginalized people organize, challenge institutional power, and create lasting change. The advocacy strategies highlighted in the film offer clear examples of how hearts and minds are shifted, how laws and policies are influenced, and how guidance rooted in bias can be dismantled. These lessons resonate deeply across the LGBTQIA plus community, the disability community, and all communities that continue to face marginalization. Following the screening, Sunday Edition transitions into a live roundtable discussion exploring a critical question: how do we borrow from the past to protect and shape our future. Joining the conversation are the filmmakers behind CURED, along with event coordinator Jeremy Grandstaff, whose work in organizational change and advocacy brings essential perspective. Additional surprise panelists will also join, offering deeply personal insight into both the film’s themes and the current moment our communities are navigating. Together, the panel examines historical lessons and how they apply to today’s backlash, bias, and renewed attacks on LGBTQIA plus and disabled communities. The discussion explores prejudice then and now, the power of collective action, and how past victories can be revisited, remixed, and reactivated for the advocacy demands of today. During the second hour of Sunday Edition, the conversation opens to the audience. Listener voices, lived experiences, and perspectives are central to this dialogue. This is not simply a retrospective, it is a living conversation, a tribute to those who fought before us, and a call to action for what comes next. Listeners can tune in live and explore past episodes, special events, music, karaoke, and more by visiting www.anthonycorona.com. The site offers access to live Sunday Edition broadcasts and a full archive of programming. We invite you to join us for this important history, urgent conversation, and shared moment of reflection and action. pisode Notes Notes go here Support Sunday Edition with Anthony Corona by contributing to their tip jar: https://tips.pinecast.com/jar/acb-sunday-edition This podcast is powered by Pinecast.
