Desirée A. Christian

VIP Coach

Desirée A. Christian is a Visually Impaired Person Coach, entrepreneur, and lifelong learner with a passion for helping others navigate transitions with resilience, clarity, and kindness.

Raised in a multigenerational blind family, she grew up with independence as the expectation and learned early that determination, not outside barriers, shapes success. Over the past 25 years, she has balanced managing a household with complex medical and dietary needs, raising two medically fragile daughters, and pursuing her own growth as a legally blind woman.

For the last four years, Desirée has taught virtual classes and led peer support groups for people experiencing sight loss. Two of those years were spent as a hired coach and facilitator with the Hull Foundation, where she expanded her reach and deepened her experience supporting the blind community.

Her professional life extends beyond coaching. She is the founder of FlauntYourAbility.com, “Cheeky Tees for those daring enough to be human,” an online shop featuring witty disability-related and fandom-inspired designs, along with custom work. She has also volunteered with the American Council of the Blind, fandom-based charities, and other community organizations.
