Pt 1: ‘I Didn’t Tell Anyone I Was Going Blind’ | Claire Sisk

Pt 1: ‘I Didn’t Tell Anyone I Was Going Blind’ | Claire Sisk

At just 29, Claire Sisk suffered two strokes, which eventually led to her losing her sight. 17 years later, she’s thriving with a career in TV and content creation – but she’s come a long way from her self-described ‘rock bottom’.


In part one, Claire reveals how her first marriage broke down at the same time of her illness, why she was terrified of losing her daughter and why she didn’t tell anyone about her sight loss.
