Anxiety, the Blindness Blues & Smart Labelling

Discover how guide dogs, anxiety, and AI tools intersect in the lives of blind hosts Steven Scott and Shaun Preece. This episode of Double Tap dives into accessible tech, everyday mobility challenges, and the surprising ways AI might transform independence.

Steven and Shaun return with a lively, candid conversation covering the highs and lows of life with vision loss. Steven shares real-world experiences of guide dog training, the confidence and freedom it brings, and the ongoing battle with anxiety when navigating unfamiliar routes. Shaun reflects on the emotional journey of adjusting to reduced light perception, and together they explore the “blindness blues”—a term capturing moments of frustration and resilience.

The hosts shift gears into a detailed discussion of the new SpeechLabels from Hable. Freek Van Velsenis from the company talks to us about the new product range.
