Summary
Close your eyes and get ready to see the world in a new and more positive way. As a child in Toronto, Molly Burke was diagnosed with retinitis pigmentosa and became completely sightless as a teenager. Now an award-winning YouTube star and global influencer, Molly shares what it’s like to be a purple-haired, pink-obsessed fashion and makeup lover in a seeing world. She speaks with authenticity and candor about how she tackles the preconceived notions we have around blindness; Molly has made it her mission to make us see her - and ourselves- in a wholly empowering way. Learn about her struggles with bullying and anxiety, her quest for inclusivity, how she built a successful influencer business (with more than 1.8 million followers), and what it’s really like to travel with the true star of this audio, her service dog, Gallop.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library on your web browser, along with the audio.

i love Molly Burke, and this is such an eye opener
This is basically an auto biography that gives a peak into her world. She's faced so many challenges, with her eye disease but remains very positive. she's amazing!

So much inspiration from someone so young.
I found Molly a few days ago and was really pleased to know she was releasing an audiobook, as it’s my favorite way to read.
This young girl is amazing. She is raw enough, emotional enough, real enough and has a lot to teach. And she’s funny too.
If you’re going through something hard in your life, or even if you just think your life sucks, listen to her and get inspired to be more, be happy, be fulfilled.
Thanks Molly, it was a very nice read.

Emotional, informative and fun
I found Molly on YouTube and adored her bubbly personality and style. As soon as I watched a video where she said she had written a book I downloaded it. It has been a rollercoaster of emotions, I laughed, I cried, my blood boiled with rage (sorry Molly, my school would never have allowed bullying like that!) and I reflected on my own misconceptions of blind people. (Glad I have only made moon eyes at working dogs.)
Definitely worth your time to listen to.

Beauty & Boldness
I love this autobiography.
Molly's voice is also very easy to follow and listen to. Her story as a young disabled woman navigating through this very ableist society hits home for me. Recommend this audible even for non-disabled people.
I love how Molly touches on; inspiration, Disability-Porn, Achievements and struggles that she's gone through since young till now. 10/10 for delivery and using her strength of description to draw the listener in.

I absolutely loved this!
I have been watching Molly for a little while now. I loved this book, because I got to read books like her and hear more about her. I would recommend to everyone, she inspired me to fashion and body positivity. Definetly choose this book if you want to be inspired with a little bit of sassy Molly!
