🎙️ BEVERLY EXPLAINS IT ALL PODCAST
Season 2 | Debra Erickson – Blind Chef & Founder of The Blind Kitchen

This week, I’m chatting with the incredible Debra Erickson—a blind chef who’s breaking barriers in the kitchen and beyond. She was the only blind student in culinary school, a former instructor for the Oregon Commission for the Blind, and now runs The Blind Kitchen to help others cook safely and confidently.

We talk about how vision loss changed her relationship with food, her favorite adaptive tools, and how cooking became a powerful way to get unstuck in life. Debra’s got amazing tips, inspiring stories, and a whole lot of heart.

If you’ve ever felt like a challenge was too big to face, this episode is for you.
