#LIVE2.0 #Review
People spend a considerable amount of their time on social media every day. Having a brief tea break in the office or while munching on a bag of chips at home, a person opens and scrolls through social media on autopilot. No wonder why over 1 million new users interact with the internet community every single day.
Taking frequent strolls in the world of social media and not running into numerous social media influencers is out of the question. Ever wondered what a social media influencer is? A person who is capable of affecting or influencing the purchasing decisions of the potential buyers because of their following in a specific niche, knowledge, and social engagement is referred to as a social media influencer.
It is not a novel practice to make social media influencers play a role in marketing strategy. Rather, a swell of social media and the internet community has provided more people with an opportunity to become an influencer and make an impact on the target audience.
In an ocean full of social media influencers from every niche, we might drown in the belief that a person with special needs cannot make an impact on the people around them.
A bunch of uber-talented and extraordinary influencers are burning the midnight oil to push boundaries and obliterate this cliché. Influencers with legal blindness and severe eye diseases can be seen overcoming their disability and moving the hearts of millions of people through their content.
Instagram has become a platform that does not merely let a person interact with others’ or post his own photos and videos, but also empowers people, enabling them to showcase their skill set, expand and grow their business, and connect to more people.
It is an overwhelming and heartwarming sight to witness how visually impaired and legally blind people are fully aware of the power of social media and how they are using it to stop their disabilities from overpowering their unique skills.
Lucy Edwards
Lucy Edwards, 24 years old, young, creative, and thriving social media influencer is sprinkling the magic of her devotion and dedication towards her dreams by not letting her blindness hinder her way to success.
While talking to the BBC, Lucy explained how she thought about her dreams to be far fetched but never gave up on them. With a massive following on different social media platforms such as Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok, Lucy has a thriving career in the media. This determines how much people are intrigued to find out what a day in the lives of legally blind people looks like.
As a presenter, journalist, and online digital creator, Lucy produces content that focuses on her lifestyle and her blindness. After being diagnosed with a rare and genetic condition called Incontinentia Pigmenti, which causes hair loss, dental abnormalities, and eye abnormalities that can lead to vision loss, she lost all of her eyesight and has been relying on screen reader software, Braille labeler, or PenFriend ever since.
Lucy has been encouraging other visually impaired people to set off on the pursuit of their dreams as she herself has undeniably attained her goals through unwavering devotedness. Her biggest achievement is to become the first ever blind BBC radio 1 presenter. Being a blind makeup artist too, Lucy is not only beautifying her outer self but also the lives of the legally blind community who had given up all hope.
