The Blind Blogger

Come and listen while Host Candace Gish interviews a variety of extraordinary individuals, whom are working to make the world a better place! #DivasThatCare

Born into a family of carnival owners in Texas, USA, Maxwell Ivey lost his sight at age 12. Having a natural gusto for life, Max graduated college and became heavily involved in the Eagle Scouts. He also worked in the family business alongside his brothers until his father succumbed to lung cancer.

Faced with his own mortality, Max made some life-altering changes. He underwent gastric surgery and lost over 250 pounds. He started his own business, buying and selling amusement rides, and learned how to blog using software for visually-impaired people. Overcoming many obstacles, Max made a name for himself online and now shares his experiences on The Blind Blogger.

Max’s favorite things entail podcast coaching, teaching, being an award-winning author, and helping others achieve their goals and so he began another business of podcast and personal coaching. With the companionship of his crazy Dalmation-mix, Penny, Max now spends his days singing, blogging, writing, creating videos for his podcast, and coaching. Even though he wrote a book about a blind guy who traveled to New Your City, he'd like to travel the world one day and meet in person his many online friends and clients . . . and a special lady to share his life with, but my pup Penny might have something to say about that!
