Blind Ambition

Blind Ambition

Author: Shanna Vavra May 24, 2021 Duration: 1:06:30

We had the pleasure of speaking with with the High-Impact Motivational Speaker Chad E. Foster. He joins us today to talk about his book Blind Ambition and his journey of how as a young adult in college with many dreams he went blind from an inherited retinal disease. 

Although he had been robbed of his eyesight, it could not take his ambition. He overcame his challenges and went on to graduate, even making the Dean’s List with straight-A’s and was hired by a Global Fortune 500 consulting firm out of college. He created what software giant Oracle said would be impossible: Giving millions of people the ability to earn a living by becoming the first person to create customer relationship software for the visually impaired. Today he is  a successful corporate executive, at software leader Red Hat. 

Chad’s story and book will inspire you to face your perceived limitations, just as he has faced his blindness. Chad pushed himself beyond any self limiting beliefs and he has choose live a like doing just that. Today he is teaching and inspiring others to thrive with change and to explore new possibilities where they once may have only seen obstacles.

Hosted by Shanna Vavra, Sense of Soul is a space for deep conversation about the often messy path toward personal and spiritual understanding. Rather than offering simple answers, this podcast sits with the complexities of healing and growth, drawing from a well of diverse perspectives. Shanna connects with guests from various cultural and spiritual backgrounds, each bringing a raw account of how profound challenges were met with resilience and reframed into a sense of purpose. What you’ll hear in these dialogues are not polished success stories, but genuine narratives about confronting pain, questioning beliefs, and discovering an inner light that often feels hidden. The discussions naturally weave through themes of faith, self-improvement, and education in the broadest sense-learning from life itself. Tuning into this podcast feels like joining a thoughtful gathering where the focus is on authentic human experience across different traditions and personal journeys. It’s for anyone curious about the intersection of spirituality and daily life, seeking a sense of connection and reflection through the shared wisdom of others walking a similar path.
